HENDERSON'S 



New York Lettuce 



The King of Main Crop Head Lettuces 



Immense Heads as Solid as a Cabbage. Blanches 

 Beautifully. Crisp, Tender and Free from Bitterness. 



It produces immense heads, often 15 and 16 inches 

 across, and weighing enormously. The interior is beauti- 

 fully blanched, creamy-white, crisp, tender and delicious, 

 being absolutely free from any trace of bitterness. It is 

 a very large, robust growing variety, rooting deeply, 

 resisting hot, dry weather, very slow to run to seed and 

 a sure header under most trying conditions. The outer 

 color is of a distinct apple green. We introduced this 

 variety a number of years ago, and it has been exten- 

 sively grown by our customers in almost all sections of 

 the country and from whom we receive most gratifying 

 reports. As a standard main summer crop, hot weather 

 Lettuce, it is in every way desirable and has no equal, 

 but is not recommended for forcing. (See engraving.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 80c. l{ lb., $2.50 lb. 



WORDS OF PRAISE FOR HENDERSON'S NEW YORK

HENDERSON'S PERFECTED 



Salamander Lettuce 



A SPLENDID SUMMER VARIETY 



Salamanderisone of the 

 few varieties that will head 

 well during hot weather. 

 If the instructions given 

 on lettuce culture in our 

 booklet "Salads, Growing 

 and Blanching," are fol- 

 lowed, success is assured 

 with Salamander. It will 

 grow equally well as an 

 earlier crop, but is excelled 

 by others for fall use. It 

 forms a good sized, com- 

 pact head, creamy-white 

 in color, and has all the 

 rich flavor of the "butter" 

 Lettuce. (See engraving.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 

 70c. \i lb., $2.00 lb. 



"Last Spring I ordered 

 your Salamander Lettuce and 

 must say it was most satisfac- 

 tory notwithstanding the hot, 

 dry weather in June." 



WM. C. KIDDER,, 



Sea Girt, N. J. 



"All the lettuce I grew from 

 your seeds last season were 

 top notch."
