Culture. For early Summer use, sow in hotbeds in March, sowing every two weeks for succession. Transplant the young plants to rows 2 feet apart and 

 8 to 12 inches apart in the row. For Winter use, sow in August, transplant to frames ; and for this purpose the early heading varieties, such as the Million-, 

 aire Lettuce, are best adapted. The Cos varieties require to be tied up for a few days in order to properly blanch them. 



480. Bolgiano's Sure Summer Header Lettuce. (Specialty, see page 14.) This is the best Mid-Summer Variety, resisting 

 heat and drought and remains in a heading condition longer than any other. It is a sure header in the hottest, driest weather 

 and proves a big success under conditions when all others fail. The heads are a good size, very solid, a fresh green color. Loose 

 leaves can all be used as they are brittle and tender. This strain is a big improvement over all other Summer varieties. , 



155. Unrivaled Lettuce. An improvement on the Big Boston Lettuce, possessing earliness, large size, attractive color, etc. 

 It can be sown almost the whole year around; it resists the Summer heat, is crisp and solid. 



150. Millionaire Lettuce. Unquestionably the earliest and far better than any other extremely early large heading Let- 

 tuce. A Lettuce fit for a king. 



415. Bolgiano's Masterpiece Lettuce. 1920 Creation. (Specialty, see page 2.) Sure header, very solid, beautifully 

 blanched, crisp as ice ; mild, tender, sweet, delicious flavor. It is equally well suited for the home garden, near-by markets or 

 long-distance shipping. Does well in any section of the country. A very profitable Lettuce to grow. 



380. Long Lost Lettuce. (Specialty, see page 

 14.) Produces large, extremely solid, compact cab- 

 bage heads. It is a reliable sure header and is very 

 hardy. It stands the cold. It will Winter over bet- 

 ter than Big Boston Lettuce. 



352. May King. A handsome, light green 

 heading variety of medium size and excellent qual- 

 ity. Outdoors the heads mature exceptionally early, 

 attaining a size suitable for use before other sorts, 

 and often the edges of the outer leaves have a 

 brownish tinge. The plant is very compact for so 

 large a head. It is very satisfactory also for forcing 

 under glass. 



122. Improved White Loaf Lettuce. After 

 the most careful cultivation and roguing, we have 

 established a strain of improved White Loaf Let- 

 tuce. It is planted largely in the Fall and allowed 

 to remain in the open ground all Winter. In the 

 earliest Spring it quickly forms most delicious, 

 large light colored Lettuce heads. If planted in 

 early Spring, it quickly forms heads and can be 

 brought to market long before other Lettuce. 



350. Iceberg Lettuce. The heads are large, 

 crisp, solid and tender. 



145. Hanson. Grows to large size and is uni- 

 formly sure heading. Heads very solid and beauti- 

 fully blanched ; crisp, mild and tender. One of the 

 finest varieties to grow for market during the 

 Millionaire Lettuce Summer months.
