Big Boston Lettuce 



A Great Favorite ^vith 

 My Trucking Friends. 



There is no question that this large cabbage lettuce is con- 

 ;tantly gaining in popular favor in all sections of the coimtry, 

 whether grown in the o-pen ground for summer and fall use or in 

 rames for use in early spring, as well as for forcing in the green- 

 louse during the winter. Its large, compact white heads, which 



are always crisp and tender, are attractive either upon the 

 market stall or on the table. My strain of seed is carefully 

 grown and is the best that can be had. It is recommended to 

 all home and market gardeners desiring a fine, big, crisp and 

 tender cabbage lettuce, and is one of the best shippers. 



Prices for 1914: Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 15 cents; J pound, 40 cents; pound, $1.50, postpaid.
