and well blanched; leaves broad, slightly blistered and crumpled; 
color light yellowish-green, with no brownish tinge; quality very fine. 
Grand Rapids (Selected Stock) (B. S.).Legislate 60 
The favorite loose-leaved forcing lettuce, which does well in the North 
for early planting outside. Leaves short, spatulate in shape, ex¬ 
cessively blistered and crumpled, and the border heavily fringed; 
color very light green, with no trace of brown. A most handsome 
and attractive lettuce of fair quality.

One of the most reliable, sure-heading sorts; heads globular, large 
and late; leaves large and very broad, fairly blistered and crumpled, 
borders finely frilled; color clear light green; quality good. A fine 
variety for midsummer planting outside, as it withstands the hot 
season better than most sorts and is a slow seeder.

A very large, late, globular heading variety; leaves broad of thick 
texture, fairly blistered and crumpled, and the borders frilled; color

west as “Los Angeles,” and shipped to eastern markets under the mis¬ 
leading name of “Iceberg.” See illustration on next page.
