 Baltimore Cabbage Lettuce 



G. & T. CO.'S TRUE STOCK. 

 Xarg-e Heads, Beautiful Heads, Solid Beads; 

 Stands Heat Well. Best of all for 

 FAIiIi FI^ANTING. 



This new Lettuce, which we introduced 

 a few years ago, and claimed to be one of 

 the best ever put on the markiet, and which 

 produced such a sensation among the large 

 growers who tried it, still holds a high 

 place among lettuce. As soon as the 

 growers discovered its merits they came 

 for more seed, and recommended it to all 

 their friends; these, in turn, were delighted 

 with their crops, as the result more than 

 justified all we claimed for it. A grower 

 at Gardenville, Md., says; "I had 3,000 heads 

 ■of your Baltimore Cabbage Lettuce, and 

 they all headed but one; they are slow to 

 run to seed." The heads are large and 

 solid; color pretty light green, and very 

 slow to seed; in fact, it is just what the 

 truckers and gardeners want. A large 

 trucker in New Jersey writes; "The Balti- 

 more Cabbage Lettuce I had of you was 

 certainly very fine." Pits., 5c. and 10c. 

 Oz., 25c. 1/4 lb., 70c. lib., $2.50.

This is so well known to truckers and 

 gardeners around Baltimore and Norfolk 

 that for them it scarcely needs description. 

 For the benefit of those who are not ac- 

 quainted with it, would say it makes large, 

 compact heads, is of beautiful light green 

 color, very tender and crisp. This is un- 

 surpassed for frame use, and is also an ex- 

 cellent outdoor lettuce for fall or early 

 spring.
