FRENCH 
UNRIVALLED LETTUCE | 
A sure-heading variety, suitable for growing at 
any season. Forms large, compact, buttery heads, 
and is slow to shoot to seed. The general char- 
acter is Similar to ‘* Big Boston,’’ except that che 
color is a lighter green and leaves are not tinged 
with brown. A good Lettuce to grow at any sea- 
son of the year, outside in spring and summer 
and under glass in winter, and in either case it can 
be depended upon to produce a satisfactory crop. 
It isa splendid Lettuce for the home garden. The 
seed which we supply was secured from the 
originator in France, and is much better than 
the American strain of Unrivalled Lettuce, which 
does not always come true to type.  Pkt.,

DREER’S WONDERFUL 
LETTUCE 
We were fortunate in being the introducers of this 
valuable variety, and the fact that many of those 
who purchased the seed of ‘‘ Wonderful”’ the first 
time it was offered have continued to include it in 
their order each spring is an indication of its pleas- 
ing qualities. It has become a popular variety, 
particularly in the South, where it withstands ex- 
treme heat and forms perfect heads, of enormous 
size, which resemble cabbage in their solidity, 
measuring from 12 to 15 inches across and fre- 
quently weighing 2 to 3 pounds each. The qual- 
ity is superb, being crisp, rich and tender, and it 
can be depended upon for all seasons. Pkt., 10 
cts.; 0z., 35 cts.; } lb., $1.00. 
WAYVAHEAD LETTUCE 
This variety of head-lettuce may be grown 
either in the cold-frame, or sown in the open ground 
early in the spring and produces good heads at an early season. | NETTED ROCK MUSKMELON

inner leaves or heart blanch yellow. It is slow te shoot seed j lections from the ‘‘ Rocky Ford’? Muskmelon placed upon the 
and may be grown during the entire season. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., market, many of which were no improvement whatever on the 
35 cts.; $ Ib., $1.00. original strain. This selection, however, is an exception, being 
superior in every way to all others. The 
Melons are about the same size as ‘‘ Rocky 
Ford,”’ nearly round, very slightly ridged 
and heavily netted. The seed cavity is 
small, and the flesh, which is green, is 
thick, solid and sweet, containing a high per- 
centage of sugar. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; 
3 Ib., 50 cts.; 1b., $1.75. 
HOOD OO 
MUSKMELON 
As a Muskmelon for the private garden, 
this variety will surely please all who plant 
it. The vines make a strong and vigorous 
growth, which enabies them to withstand 
disease and produce an abundant crop of the 
most delicious Muskmelons one can imagine. 
The Melons are not large, but of convenient 
size, and present a fine appearance. The 
rind and flesh at blossom end are very firm, 
the skin is thickly netted, and the flesh a 
rich, deep orange color, fine grained and of 
remarkable sweetness. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz.,

BUSH MUSKMELON 
A very striking feature of this variety of 
Muskmelon is that it grows in bush form. 
The plant makes a vigorous growth and is 
very productive, bearing a large number of 
melons, which are of about the same size 
and shape as the well-known Jenny Lind, 
with green flesh and of a delicious flavor.
