Days to maturity, 75-80. This variety is an item 

 of great importance to our trade. Our crop has been 

 grown from our private stock seed which we consider 

 to be a very fine selection of the Unrivalled Type. 

 Every precaution has been taken to insure the purity 

 of our strain. The fact that the vast majorit}' of our 

 present stock has been carried long enough to give it 

 a thorough trial allows us to offer it to our customers 

 with double assurance. The fresh, green color of this 

 type of Boston is no doubt responsible for the con- 

 sistently high price it commands on the market, 

 and surpasses an'\- lettuce we know of. Price,
