“MILE HICH SEED"—Strong, Hardy, Mountain Crown 
23 
LETTUCE—Cont’il 
532 Mile High Wonder. (80 days.) 
This is a new strain of the New 
York type. We have experimented 
with this lettuce for several 
years and find it to be far superior 
to the old type New York. It is 
more sure to head and is not as 
subject to tip burn. The heads 
often attain a size of 6 to 7 inches 
in diameter, very solid and of ex¬ 
cellent flavor. A good keeper.

larly well, forming a tightly fold¬ 
ed heart which consists of beau¬ 
tifully blanched, tender, and juicy 
leaves. Pkt, 5c; oz, 15c; 14 lb. 35c;

greatly relished in early spring before other 
vegetables are readj to use. We suggest

salads; Ward’s Improved Grand Kapids for 
general table use; and Mile High Wonder 
as a later heading variety. Buy this col¬ 
lection and you will not he disappointed.
