C. C. MORSE & CO.— SEEDS— SAN FRANCISCO. CALIF. 
LOS ANGELES LETTUCE 
This is the premier lettuce for California and the sort 
seen in all of our vegetable markets. The head is not so large 
as to ever be coarse, and the quality is delicious. Los An- 
geles is the crispest, whitest, most satisfactory lettuce of just 
the right size there is. Color dark green. It should be in 
every garden. Morse's strain is the very best, raised on our 
own seed farms. Lettuce seed should never be deeply cov- 
ered; one-eighth inch or less is proper; also allow twelve 
inches for each plant. (See front cover for this in colors.) 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; y A lb. 60c; 1 lb. $2.00.

NEW TABLE BEET 
Morse's Improved Globe 
See illustration in colors on front cover. 
We are sure that our customers, when they have 
seen it, will be as enthusiastic over this new beet as we 
are. Morse's Improved Globe has nearly globe-shaped 
roots, with a very smooth surface . The exterior color 
is a bright deep red and the interior a rich, bright Ver- 
million red, with very little zoning. This beet retains 
its color remarkably well when cooked. When served 
warm or made into pickles, Morse's Improved Globe 
is sweet and very tender. The variety is desirable both 
for the market and the home garden. The tops are small 
and the leaves are dark green, veined with red. This 
beet is a splendid acquisition to our list of the finest 
vegetables. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; ^ lb. 75c; lb. $2.50. 
NEW SWISS CHARD or 
SPINACH BEET: Giant Lucullus 
This comparatively new variety is not only very 
good in quality, but it is also the most attractive in 
appearance of any of the chard. Giant Lucullus is a 
strong and rapid grower, attaining a height of 2 l /i 
feet. Leaf stems long and broad and thicker than 
the ordinary variety. The leaves are light, bright green in color and are distinctly crumpled 
or savoyed. Quality very good. It cooks very easily and is tender and sweet. Try cooking 
the stalks and serving like asparagus; they are excellent. Pkt. 10c; oz. 20c; ^ lb. 60c. 
WONG BOK 
Chinese or Celery Cabbage 
Wong Bok has a mild cabbage flavor, very delicate and delicious. One Chicago commission house handles 
this new vegetable by the carload, so great is the demand. Wong Bok makes delicious slaw; also a very fine salad. 
When cooked it makes greens delicately cabbage-flavored and not at all like boiled cabbage. It blanches to almost clear white. 
The culture for Wong Bok is the same as for Winter Cabbage. The seed should be sown in July or early 
August, and early in September the plants should be transplanted. They should be set one foot apart in the row 
and pushed down one and one-half inches in the ground. When well grown the plants should be blanched by tying 
closely with burlap. Any good soil is sufficient, but they seem to head up best on rich black adobe soil. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 50c; lb. $1.50; lb. $5.00.
