BIG BOSTON (Seed White) —The leaves are 
broad, comparatively smooth but wavy at the 
edge, thin, very hard and crisp. In color they 
are bright light green. 
DWARF GREEN CURLED SCOTCH— Plant 
low and compact, with large, bright, deep green 
leaves, curled, cut and crimped until the whole 
plant resembles a bunch of moss. 
TALL GREEN CURLED SCOTCH— Produces 
an abundance of dark green, curled leaves. 
THOUSAND HEADED OR COWKALE— The

stem being covered with leaves of quick growth 
after being removed, thus producing a great 
amount of feed, hence it has become very popu¬

BLACK SEEDED SIMPSON— Used for grow¬ 
ing under glass or outdoors. The leaves are 
ruffled and blistered and even the large outer 
ones are very tender. This curly and thin¬ 
leaved variety is uniformly attractive and re¬ 
mains of excellent quality a very long time. 
PRIZE HEAD —(Seed white.) A large, non¬ 
heading lettuce, most excellent for the home 
garden. It is too tender, however, to stand 
shipping. The leaves are finely curled and 
crumpled, bright green tinged with brownish 
red, and are very crisp, tender and sweet. 
SIMPSON’S EARLY CURLED— (Seed white.) 
A very extensively used early loose leaved va¬ 
riety. The leaves are light green in color, 
slightly frilled and much blistered, crisp, sweet 
and tender. 
Grand Rapids 
GRAND RAPIDS (Seed Black)—As a lettuce 
for greenhouse forcing this variety undoubtedly 
stands at the head of the list, being of quick 
growth, little liable to rot and standing for 
some days after being ready to cut. This plant 
is upright and forms a loose head. 
Hanson 
HANSON —One of the most desirable later 
summer lettuces. The plant is compact and 
forms a large, cabbage-like head which remains 
in condition longer than most heading sorts. 
The outer leaves are bright yellowish green, 
broad, somewhat crumpled and frilled at edge. 
ICEBERG —Has an unusually solid head. The 
white main ribs of the leaves curve toward the 
center, which keeps the interior thoroughly 
blanched. It is a quick grower and always 
crisp and tender. 
NEW YORK OR WONDERFUL— We pride 
ourselves upon the extra fine strain of our New 
York Lettuce. The mammoth heads are solid, 
heavy, beautifully blanched to a creamy white 
with bright green outer leaves. The quality is
