SUMMfcKLEAU — BEST TO STAND HEAT. 



Johnson & Stokes' Summerlead 



A few years ago we recei\ i d from one of our customers 

 a small package of letiuce, with the request that we give it 

 a fair test with other summer varieties at Floracroft Trial 

 Grounds. We found it a most distinct new variety, and one 

 of the largest and handsomest head lettuces we have ever 

 grown. We were also astonished at its heat-resisting quali- 

 ties, as during the unprecedented hot simimer it remained 

 longer without shooting to seed than any other on trial. The 

 outside color is a light yellowish green, becoming entirely 

 vellow towards the hc.irt, while it*^ tender aTul crisp table 

 qualities are pel feet. Pkt.,10o.; oz.,".5c, 14)11., SI 01); lli.,$3..^0.

 proved Black Seeded Simpson, except fnrni the fact that the 

 teed is white. It grows to large size. The outer leaves are 

 light green, while within they blanch to a beautiful light 

 yellow. It withstands summer lieat splendidly, is very early 

 and of delightful flavor, being very crisp and lender. Pkt.,
