^\rhp11*<\ Trphprn T PttllPP A ver y valuable Head Lettuce—everybody should grow it. This variety 
o itct/ciy L/tuutt:. one thg grandest of all the Head Lettuces. It is grown in tremendous 
quantities in every part of the country, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. In California it is known as “Imperial 
Valley Iceberg’’; in Colorado it is called “Mountain Iceberg.” Thousands of carloads of Iceberg are shipped from 
various parts of the country every season. It forms a large, solid head, dark green and slightly curled on the 
edges; the center or inside of the head is a rich golden color. Schell’s Iceberg is distinct from any other variety 
and is, without question, one of the five most popular and most extensively grown Head Lettuces in America

Schells French-Head Lettuce . 
desirable qualities are earliness —it is ready for market 
a week to ten days ahead of Big Boston when sown at 
the same time; quality and appearance —it produces 
a beautiful, attractive, uniform, compact head of light 
rich green, silvery white inside and of unexcelled 
quality. A perfect shipper. Does not tip-burn easily; 
many exhaustive tests under normal and under un¬ 
favorable growing conditions have proved it far more 
resistant to tip-burn than any other Lettuce. This 
is due to the nature of this variety, which develops 
unusual hardiness as the plants begin to head. Pkt. 10
