LETTUCE 



(Scttttdj, ober (Garten (Salab) 



One ounce will produce about 3000 plants ; one ounce will sow 200 feet of drill. 



, 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. 



Earliest "Wayahead" 



Shows a remark- 

 able combination 

 of earliness, firm heading character, handsome ap- 

 pearance 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 Lettuces 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 



lb. $2.00. 



Schultz's "All Heart" 



A very superior 

 variety of Cabbage 

 Lettuce, appropriately named on account of the 

 beautiful, hard head it makes. It is adapted to 

 both Spring and Fall use. Forms large heads, 

 leaves closely set, with extremely solid heart, even 

 before it is half grown. The color is a beautiful 

 light green and the flavor is excellent, being rich 



and buttery. Pkt. 

 50c, lb. $1.50.
