A & M Lettuce 
rilltiirp At tIie ti me °f sowing the soil should be in finest 
V/UUUic possible condition, well pulverized. The plants 
should be grown on ridges 14 to 18 inches wide, 4 to 6 inches 
high and in double rows 10 to 15 inches apart. The water should 
be run between the ridges and not permitted to flow over the 
tops as this cakes the soil. Water should never be allowed 
to cover the plants. There should always be an adequate 
amount of moisture in the soil from the time the plants have 
commenced to head until they have matured. The hoeings 
necessary on raised beds will vary from one to three times. 
The earth around the plants should not be allowed to harden. 
Drill 2 lbs. of seed per acre for double rows and thin plants 
to 10 inches when about one inch high. 
New York Special or Los Angeles Market 
We introduced this lettuce to the local market gardeners’ trade 
in 1904, and in 1906 we shipped the first crate of lettuce which 
ever left California. Los Angeles Market has now become the 
leading variety, thousands of carloads being shipped each year, 
and growers and distributors have learned to depend upon 
the A & M strain for the best shipping type. Every pound of 
A & M Los Angeles Lettuce seed is from fields that have 
been carefully inspected for type. The plant is large, dark 
green, crisp heading, with large outer leaves which are notched 
and slightly curled on the edges. The head is well blanched, 
crisp and sweet. 
During the past few years there has been an insistent demand 
for us to put up our strain in sealed bags, and we are now 
offering specially branded and sealed bags of our now famous 
strain of A & M Los Angeles Market Lettuce for your pro¬ 
tection as well as ours. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 20c) (A lb. 60c) (lb.

York, but is popular with shippers. The heads are very uni¬

„I a l C* This is probably the best of the Imperial 
r types. It is resistant to brown blight and 
mildew, is quite early, and has few outside leaves. The heads 
are firm and the leaves bright green, well savoyed and only 
slightly serrated on the edge. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 20 c) (A lb. 60c)

No. 2-50 which are specially adapted for certain districts. 
The light green curled, red-tinged leaves form 
ILcDCrg heads as large as the Los Angeles Market, but 
not so solid, but it is as tender and crisp. It heads better than 
some varieties during the warm weather, but is liable to burn 
on light sandy soils. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 15c) ( Z 4 lb. 50c) (lb. $1.50)

Uj. ngftn Without exception this is the best variety for 
nallbUIl late spring and mid-summer crop. It is resistant 
to both heat and disease, and also to eel worm. Hanson is 
similar to Iceberg lettuce, except that it has not the tinge 
of red. (Pkt. 5c) (oz. 15c) (A lb. 45c) (lb. $1.25) postpaid. 
D' Rrscf-rsn Very large, smooth-leaved, solid-heading 
DOblOIl variety grown extensively throughout the 
east and south. It is congenial to all climates, and is a good

varieties. An excellent all year round lettuce. (Pkt. 5c) (oz.

("'Viirlz-on I This variety of lettuce should not be 
VsIlILlvcil LCllULC confused with the regular heading or 
loose-leaved varieties. The plant grows very much like kale, 
to a height of four to five feet, with much growth of leaf. It 
is used mainly for chicken and rabit feeding. It does not 
head and is seldom if ever used for table purposes. The won¬ 
derful leaf growth makes it ideal for green food for chickens, 
etc. (Pkt. 6 c) (oz. 15c) (A lb. 35c) (lb. $1.00) postpaid.

This might well be 
spoken of as the “Aris¬ 
tocrat” for the reason it 
is used almost exclusive¬ 
ly at aristocratic clubs 
and hotels for salads, 
because it is crisp and 
has a delicious, nutty 
flavor. 
Gardeners would profit 
to give more attention to 
this variety. (Pkt. 5c)
