HENDERSON’S 
New York Lettuce 
The King of Main Crop Head Lettuces 
Immense Heads as Solid as a Cabbage. Blanches 
Beautifully. Crisp, Tender and Free from Bitterness. 
It produces immense heads, often 15 and 16 inches 
across, and weighing enormously. The interior is beauti¬ 
fully blanched, creamy-white, crisp, tender and delicious, 
{being absolutely free from any trace of bitterness. It is 
a very large, robust growing variety, rooting deeply, 
-. resisting hot, dry weather, very slow to run to seed and 
[a sure header under most trying conditions. The outer 
* color is of a distinct apple green. We introduced this 
I variety a number of years ago, and it has been exten¬ 
sively grown by our customers in almost all sections of 
- the country and from whom we receive most gratifying 
reports. As a standard main summer crop, hot weather 
^Lettuce, it is in every way desirable and has no equal, 
Ibut is not recommended for forcing. (See engraving.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 80c. 34 lb., $2.50 lb. 
WORDS OF PRAISE FOR HENDERSON’S NEW YORK 
LETTUCE 
"I got your New York Lettuce this summer for the first time. 
We had some served at table on the 30 th of May, and all said they 
had never tasted any lettuce half the equal of this great wonder .” 
WM. A. MAIN, 
; June 12 th, 1916. Adamstown, Pa. 
“I have grown your New York Lettuce for years, and all my 
friends say it is the finest they ever saw.” 
KENNETH GRUBB, 
■ February Is/, 1916. Atlantic, Iowa. 
“ Henderson's New York Lettuce is something great. The 
finest I ever saw.” 
C. M. HULSART, Ridge Avenue, Lakewood, N. J. 
“7 have never found any Lettuce as satisfactory as Henderson’s 
New York.” Mrs. M. B. WILLIAMS, Davenport, Iowa. 
Salamander Lettuce 
A SPLENDID SUMMER VARIETY 
Salamander isone of the 
f ew varieties that will head 
well during hot weather. 
If the instructions given 
on lettuce culture in our 
booklet “Salads, Growing 
and Blanching,” are fol¬ 
lowed, success is assured 
with Salamander. It will 
grow equally well as an 
earlier crop, but is excelled 
by others for fall use. It 
forms a good sized, com¬ 
pact head, creamy-white 
in color, and has all the 
rich flavor of the “butter” 
Lettuce. (See engraving.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 
70c. 34 lb., $2.00 lb. 
“Last Spring I ordered 
your Salamander Lettuce and 
must say it was most satisfac¬ 
tory notwithstanding the hot, 
dry weather in June.” 
WM. C. KIDDER, 
Sea Girt, N. J. 
“All the lettuce I grew from 
your seeds last season were 
lop notch.” 
Rev. C. W. KING, 
Grand Forks, B. C.
