ff enderson’s MIGNONETTE LETTUCE 
:: A Delicious First-Early :: 
Romaine or Cos 
Lettuce, Express 
The most crisp and tender of 
all Lettuces, thriving in hot 
weather and slow to run to seed. 
It forms tall, elongated heads 
requiring no tying, thus being 
distinct from any other Cos 
variety. It is midway between 
White Cos and Green in color. Its 
form is much more compact than 
any other Cos, being dwarfer, and 
heading without any artificial aid, 
and absolutely self-folding in char¬ 
acter. It has stood the intense and 
tryingtemperature of our summers 
with remarkable success without 
showing any sign of wilting or 
burning. The midrib and veins 
are unusually small, so that every 
leaf is edible throughout. It is 
also valuable for forcing. We can 
strongly recommend it for an all¬ 
round Cos or Romaine Lettuce.

"YourExyrreBS Cob Leitucewas thefinest 
I ever saw; every plant was a solid head, 
and quality superfine.” —(7. C. MURPHY, 
9th and B Sis., \Vashington, D. C. 
“Once tasted always wanted” is the happy expression of an admirer, and this is the 
unanimous opinion of all who have eaten this splendid little Lettuce, its chief 
merit being quality. The phenomenally solid little heads are dense masses of 
crumpled leaves, blanched creamy-white, very tender, remarkably crisp, and as sweet 
—-well—Mignonette Lettuce, for none other in quality quite equals it. Another 
valuable feature is its extreme hardiness, which makes it specially adapted for early 
■spring planting, or cold-frame culture, or growing out during the winter in the Southern 
States;-it heads quickly and surely, and, in consequence, may be had very early; 
moreover, it is a first-rate summer lettuce, resisting heat, drought and wet, and 
slow to bolt to seed. It is a compact-growing variety, the plants spread only about 
seven inches, enabling them to be closely planted. The outer leaves are bronzy- 
green and russet, but the interior is beautifully white and inviting. {See cut.)

Your Mignonette Lettuce is the best we ever raised. It forms such tender, 
crisp heads.” Mrs. J. W. CRAIK, Warner, Idaho. 
*'No lettuce compares with your MignoneUe for quality.”

;; :: A SPLENDID EARLY VARIETY :: :: 
Lettuces naturally thrive better during the cooler weather 
of spring and fall than in a torrid summer — the season really 
when such crisp, cooling salad is most enjoyable and in great 
demand; consequently there has been bred a number of 
heat-resisting or summer lettuces, among which our Perfected 
Salamander is the acknowledged leader. It forms good- 
sized, compact and tender heads, creamy-white inside and of 
that desirable rich buttery flavor; outer color, light green; it 
remains long in head without running to seed, and stands a 
great amount of heat without burning. (See cut.) Price, 10c.

“ Last spring I ordered your Salamander Lettuce, and must say it was most satisfactory 
notwithstanding the hoi, dry weather in June.” UM/. C. KIDDER, Sea Girt, N. J.
