EARLY CURLED SIMPSON. 
Forms a close, compact mass of curly 
leaves of a yellowish green. It is 
earlier than the head varieties and 
is the kind that is planted in cold 
frames almost exclusively; it is also 
largely grown in the open. 5c. pkt., 
15c. oz., 35c. 14 lb., $1.10 lb. 
BLACK-SEEDED SIMPSON. 
Forms large, loose heads of thin and 
exceedingly tender golden yellow 
leaves; the best curled variety for 
forcing or sowing out-of-doors, 
though on account of its large size it 
is, under some circumstances, not so 
profitable for forcing. It stands the 
summer heat splendidly. (See cut.)

BLACK-SEEDED SIMPSON LETTUCE. 
HENDERSON’S 
NEW LETTUCE 
“fllGNONETTE.” 
H en ™bttuc E : “MIGNONETTE.” 
A small, sturdy, russet-colored Lettuce, distinct and unique, and of great 
value. The entire plant measures only 7 inches in diameter, and is more 
solid and compact than any existing variety. The outer leaves are few, 
and these cling so closely to the head that it is almost all head. The 
few outside leaves are as deeply crumpled as a Savoy Cabbage and 
richly colored with russet-red and bronze-green of varying shades. 
The cut section shows the character of the solid heart, which is 
•of a creamy yellow waved with pale greenish white. It is 
wonderfully hardy, resists drought and excessive moisture 
—a most valuable feature in our climate. It is fit for use 
five days after Boston Market, which, combined with its 
long-standing character, constitutes it an all-seasons va¬ 
riety in a superlative degree. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 
25c. oz., 70c. % lb., $2.25 lb. 
COS, R0MAINE or CELERY LETTUCE. 
“TRIANON.” This excels all other lettuces in quality, 
having a crispness, tenderness and flavor peculiarly its own 
and unapproached by any other variety. The heads are 
long and conical. The leaves require to be tied up as shown 
in the cut, when they soon form solid heads and quickly 
bleach to snowy whiteness, and become as stiff, crisp and 
sweet as celery stalks, and are delicious when eaten in the 
same manner or prepared for salad. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 
20c. oz., 50c. H lb., $1.50 lb.
