Culture. — Seed for the first outdoor crop is usually sown in, hotbeds in February or March, and 

 the seedlings transplanted to the garden in April, 8 to 12 inches apart, in rows 18 inches apart. For a 

 succession until frost, sow in drills in the open ground at intervals of every 2 or 3 weeks, and thin the 

 plants to stand 8 inches apart. For plants to force in hotbeds from November until Spring, sow seed 

 in hotbeds in the Fall. 



Burpee's Earliest "Wayahead " 



Shows a remarkable combination of earliness, 

 firm heading character, handsome appearance 

 and fine quality. Both in coldframes early in 

 the Spring and in the open ground — in Spring, 

 Summer and early Fall months — it has proved to 

 be not only the very earliest and surest heading 

 of all early Lettuce we have ever grown, but also 

 of the very finest quality at all seasons. The outer 

 leaves are a light green, while all the inner leaves 

 of the head are nicely blanched to a rich butter- 

 yellow tint. Earliest "Wayahead" stands a longer 

 time before running to seed than any other early 

 head variety. Pkt. 10c, oz. 15c, % lb. 50c, 

 lb. $1.50.
