THE COS LETTUCE 
This variety could easily he cal¬ 
led Celery Lettuce. The engrav¬ 
ing. made from photo, shows its 
long, narrow spoon-shaped leaves, 
most all of which form into a rath¬ 
er loose loaf-shaped head. Its shape 
makes it a very convenient head 
for packing or serving, and is be¬ 
coming to be highly regarded as it 
keeps sweet and crisp during the 
hot months and is very slow to run 
to seed. If the outer leaves are 
tied up. this lettuce will form into 
a solid head nod bleach snow white. 
On account of its compact habit 
of growth, the plants can be 
set as close as G to 8 inches.

lettuce the Grand Rapids stands 
m.wkuasm " ahead of all others for winter forc¬ 
ing in the greenhouse. It is the best in its class for market 
gardeners as it will keep longer from wilting than any other

door planting. Our stock runs unusually even and true to type.
