329 Lettuce, New York No. 515 



(72 days) Earliest Lettuce of the New York or Wonderful type commonly called "Iceberg" 

 by shippers. New York No. 515 is a little earlier than New York No. 12 which it resembles in 

 general appearance. The large heads are solid, bright green in color, bleach to a beautiful white, 

 always crisp, juicy and sweet. New York No. 515 has been bred for resistance to tipburn and will 

 stand hot weather better than others of the New York type. It also makes wonderful heads in the 

 fall from late summer sowings. 



Market gardeners who have tried this new Lettuce have reported excellent results. Whether you 

 are a home or market grower and you have had difficulty in raising head Lettuce in your garden, 

 we would suggest trying this new, sure heading strain of New York.

(100 days) Wilt-resistant; developed by the United States Department of Agriculture and

364 Muskmelon, Pride of Wisconsin 



(90 days) The almost round melons are of medium size, pearly 

 gray, slightly ribbed and coarsely netted. Ripens to a yellowish 

 shade. Flesh is rich and sweet, unusually thick and orange in color. 

 The triangular seed cavity is quite compact. Became so popular in 

 our eastern markets when shipped here that it is now in demand by 

 home and market gardeners everywhere. It is no wonder, for once 

 you have tasted the sugary, luscious flesh with its sweet musky 

 flavor, you will, no doubt, agree that it is unequalled. Order your 

 requirements early as seed supply is limited.

537 Pepper, King of the North 



(105 days) If you live where seasons have been too short to grow 

 Peppers, we suggest that you try King of the North. It bears so 

 early and so profusely that it will ripen most of its fruits in the 

 north. The large Peppers are mild and sweet, dark green turning to 

 a rich red when ripe. A valuable home or market Pepper for all 

 sections. Plants are of branching growth and heavy yielding.

574 Radish, Comet 



(23 days) For an early Radish that 



has the same good qualities as Vicks Scarlet 



Globe, but with a root that is more round 



instead of olive-shaped, we suggest that 



try Comet. Its roots are 



globe to olive-shaped, 



bright scarlet in color, and 



have small taproots. The 



Radishes remain crisp and 



solid for a long time, in 



fact they are still solid 



when other early Radishes 



have become pithy. Even 



if left to grow to full size 



they still remain firm.

 Tokyo Market 



(45 days) Pure white and 



measure, when fully 



grown, 3 in. or more

The solid white flesh is 



\ tender and very sweet. 



Profitable white variety 



for market, especially 



\ where a bunch Turnip is 



. i wanted. Of excellent qual- 



! ity for the table. As 



j Turnips develop best dur- 



; ing cool weather, a sowing 



/ may be made in early 



-' spring (as soon as the 



'' ground can be worked) to 



furnish roots for early 



summer use and another 



sowing in July or August 



for fall and winter use.
