Dear Sirs: 



We have had considerable trouble since coming here with 

 seed not germinating properly. Last fall a friend brought 

 rrie some Head Lettuce seed from your store, and it must 

 have come up 100 per cent. Please send me this order by 

 mail as I am going to give some to a man here who wishes 

 to market. Please send a variety that will head up nicely. 

 Yours truly, 



MRS. GRACE L. BAKER.
