LETTUCE 
Laitue ©alat Lattuga 
Allow 1 ounce for 150 feet of drill; 3 pounds 
per acre 
BIG BOSTON. (White seed.) A splendid 
head Lettuce, perhaps the most gener¬ 
ally and favorably known of the varie¬ 
ties mentioned here. Forced in frames 
to great extent in the spring and is also 
planted in August for late crop. Does 
not do well for midsummer use, but as 
a fall or early spring Lettuce is one of 
the best. Large heads; center crisp 
and of fine flavor. Oz. 20 cts., Vilb* 
45 cts., lb. $1.25, 10 lbs. $12. 
BLACK-SEEDED BIG BOSTON. By 
far the most heat-resisting sort of this 
type. The plants are of a uniformly 
darker shade of green, grow more com¬ 
pactly, and stand several days longer 
than other strains of Big Boston, before 
running to seed. Oz. 25 cts., Vilb. 
65 cts., lb. $1.75, 10 lbs. $17. 
UNRIVALED SUMMER, GREEN-LEAVED BIG BOSTON. 
(White seed.) Forms uniformly large heads similar to Big 
Boston but lighter in color. Ready about a week earlier 
than Big Boston when sown at same time. May be sown 
throughout the season. Similar to White Boston. Oz. 20 cts., 
V 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $1.60, 10 lbs. $15. 
NEW YORK or WONDERFUL. (White seed.) Possibly the 
largest Lettuce in cultivation. It is so distinct that, with its 
crisply curled leaves, very dark color, and remarkable size, 
a row of New York frequently puzzles even the experienced 
grower if unacquainted with this variety. It is being shipped 
into many markets under the name “Iceberg.” New York 
is a sure-heading variety, suitable both for spring and late 
summer planting; the big, compact, white heads are of the best 
possible quality. Oz. 25c., Vilb* 65c., lb. $1.75, 10 lbs. $17. 
SALAMANDER PERFECTED. (Black seed.) For summer use 
there are few Lettuces better or more favorably known. The 
critical market-gardener will find few Lettuces to equal it for 
summer use, as it remains longer in head before running to seed 
than most sorts. The heads are good-sized, compact, tender, 
creamy white inside, outer leaves light green and of most ex¬ 
cellent flavor. Oz. 20 cts., Vilb. 55 cts., lb. $1.50, 10 lbs. $14.
