CHICKEN LETTUCE 
CHICKEN LETTUCE. This is a 
rough, rank growing variety of lettuce 
that has no head but produces a large 
bunch of leaves. For this reason it is 
an ideal source of green feed for 
chickens, and should find great favor 
with poultrymen everywhere. Pkg., 5c;

MUSKMELONS 
SKAGIT GOLDEN. This is the ear- 
liest musk melon that we have ever 
seen and while musk melons are not 
always satisfactory in Western Wash¬ 
ington we believe that Skagit Golden 
will give good results here even in 
spite of the short growing season. If 
you have a warm early soil you will be 
delighted with this fine melon. The 
flesh is medium thick, sweet and 
juicy and of a rich salmon orange 
color. Pkg., 10c; oz., 25c. 
EMERALD GEM. One of the ear¬ 
liest of all muskmelons and therefore 
more nearly adaptable to the short 
growing seasons of this locality. The 
skin is smooth and of deep emerald 
green color. The flesh is thick and of 
a delicate salmon color. Pkg., 5c; 
oz., 15c.

KLONDIKE. A new and very pop¬ 
ular variety of melon having a thin 
rind and very sweet and delicious 
flesh. The fruit is oblong and dark 
green and is rapidly becoming one of 
the main commercial sorts on the 
market. 
TOM WATSON. A very delicious 
melon of the long type. The flesh is 
rich, red, crisp, melting and very 
sweet. It has long been considered 
one of the best of the green melons. 
OKRA or GUMBO 
Okra is raised for its pods which are 
used extensively in soups, stews, catsup, 
and other relishes. It is used when the 
pods are from 1 to 3 inches long. Sow 
about one inch deep in warm soil. Thin 
to one foot in the row and cultivate well. 
EARLY DWARF GREEN. An early 
sort which remains in condition for 
use a long time. Pods long, fluted and 
dark green. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c. 
SETS 
YELLOW BOTTOM SETS. These 
are small onions about V 2 inch in 
diameter that are produced by thick 
planting. They will produce green on¬ 
ions for table or market use in a very 
short time, or if planted far enough 
apart will produce nice large dry on¬ 
ions. In the Northwest sets may be 
planted very early, in fact just as early 
as weather and soil conditions will 
permit. We have an exceptionally fine 
lot of sets this year and hope to fill 
all orders as long as they come in.
