Button’s Superb HLettuces. 
J. Sutton and Sons hud the honour of supplying the Horticultural Society’s Garden at 
Chiswick with the above-named Lettuce seed, in February, 1849; and in March, 1850, the Editor 
of The Gardeners' Chronicle, in a critique on Lettuces, says of the first of these—“ This is the 
very best Cos Lettuce, very large, light green, leaves hooded at the top, so that they close in 
without tying, blanching white, crisp, so excellent that one would suppose no higher degree of 
perfection could be attained as regards a summer Lettuce.” And, of the other two, lie further 
says— “Sutton’s Superb Green Cos: this very much resembles the preceding, but is of a 
darker green, and hardier, therefore is preferable for sowing early in spring, and also for autumn 
use ; in warm, sheltered situations, it will stand the winter, if the latter prove mild. For the 
generality of winters, however, a hardier Cos is required; such is the following— Sutton’s 
Berkshire Brown Cos : this is the best Cos for standing the winter; it is large, and of good 
quality, blanching very crisp, therefore its brown outside should not be considered objectionable.” 
The above-named superior Lettuces may be had, post free, in packets Is each, sufficient to raise 
several thousand plants. Address

SEEDS OF THE BEST QUALITY, CARRIAGE FREE. 
J. C. Wheeler and Bon 
; Have had the honour of being appointed Seedsmen to the Gloucestershire Agricultural Association. 
Their Priced List of Seeds for this season is just ready, and will be forwarded on application free 
by post to any address. This Catalogue is not a long list of useless names ; it is really what it pro¬ 
fesses to be, a List of the best Seeds in cultivation, and will be found a safe guide to all purchasers. 
Du. Lindley', in the Gardeners' Chronicle of the 2nd March last, strongly recommends it in the 
following terms:—“The Catalogue of Seeds sold by J. C. WHEELER AND CO., Gloucester, 
appears to us to deserve notice, because of the stand which its authors make, in ci mmon with 
ourselves and others, against the useless, incomprehensible Seed Lists of the daj\ In this, as in all 
matters of taste, there will be a difference of opinion as to the relative qualities of varieties ; yet the 
mass of buyers who have no fancies, but who dislike being perplexed, and are satisfied with what is 
excellent, will greatly prefer a short select Seed List to an interminable labyrinth of names, which, 
for the most part, represent nonentities or rubbish. Messrs. WHEELER’S little book will do 
something to satisfy their expectations.”
