CARTERS IIARRINGER. 
Ca.rtcrs Ha.rbing'er Forcing (see Pho(ogmph ). — Valuable on account of its extieme 
earliness. It is not a hearting variety, but being of quick growth produces a quantity of 
tender leaves which are so much in request for early salads. 
Price 6d. and is. per packet; 2 S. 6d. per ounce. 
Carters Longstander.— A distinct and valuable variety of great size. From its 
peculiar habit of growth it is less liable to decay and damage than any other cabbage 
variety. The colour of the leaf is pale green, and of the most delicious flavour and 
tenderness. Price 6d. and is. per packet; is. pd. per ounce. 
^^■rters Endive-Leaved. — This Lettuce is quite distinct. Its leaves are deeply 
serrated and laciniated, which gives it the appearance of Endive — indeed, a prominent 
gardener suggested that it might be used in early summer salads, and few could tell but 
that it was Endive. j i . 
Price 6d. and is. per packet. 
I HE Royal Horticultural Society, reporting its trials at the Experimental Grounds, 
says : “ Leaves beautifully cut and divided ; a very handsome variety.” 
The 'Cultivation of the Lettuce . — -Sow in pans on a gentle heat in February, and prick out into a well- 
manured and warm border. Sow again during March in a protected situation out of doors for early use, and in 
succession to the end of August for late crops. \'oung and tender plants may be grown in boxes or frames, and 
pulled and eaten when small ; in this form they make a delicate salad. Water liberally in dry and warm 
weather.
