CULTURE—Lettuce needs cool weather, plenty of moisture and 
plenty of room. Young lettuce plants are very hardy and for this reason 
the seed can be sown very early in the spring. The soil should be well 
prepared, the seed sown in rows about 2 feet apart, seeds about two to 
the incch and covered from Z 4 to Z 2 inch. When the plants are about 
2 inches tall thin them to 2 inches apart, then a little later to 4 
inches apart. Repeat this until the plants will be one foot apart when 
mature. In growing head lettuce it is important that the heads develop 
as much as possible during cool weather. For this reason the seed It 
usually sown in hotbeds and plants set in the field when weather per¬ 
mits. One ounce will sow a row 80 feet long; four pounds to the acre.
