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. 
I T produces immense heads, often 15 and 16 inches across, and weighing 
enormously. The interior is beautifully 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 variety a number of years ago, and it has been extensively grown by 
our customers in almost all sections of the country, from whom we receive 
most gratifying reports. As a standard main summer crop, hot-weather 
Lettuce it is m every way desirable and has no equal, but is not recom¬ 
mended for forcing. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 70c. 34 lb., $2.25 lb. 
‘7 cannot help sending you my testimony regarding your New

it was the finest both in size and quality they ever saw.” 
MRS. L. W. CARR, Hamden, Ohio. 
11 Your New York Lettuce is a perfect picture, and just as good 
as it is pretty.” Dr. A. T. RITTER, Loysmlle, Pa. 
“ In all my 40 years' experience in gardening I never raised 
such lettuce as your New York. Monstrous heads, tender, sweet 
and juicy, and a rapid grower. We think it has no peer in the 
lettuce family.” T. F' 
W. SPENCER, Highland Park, Iil.

where known, and deservedly, 
for it is one of the best of the 
“Butterhead” lettuces. Itismedium 
to large in size and of attractive 
appearance, having broad pale green 
leaves and a large, round, compactly 
formed head of delicious quality, 
crisp and of that buttery character 
so much liked. Even the outer leaves 
may be eaten with relish. As im¬ 
plied by its name it may be grown 
in the open, spring, summer or fall. 
It is a great heat resister, preserving 
its freshness under trying conditions, 
and is slow in bolting to seed. Price, 
10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 70c. 34 lb., $2.25 lb.

leaves are picked new leaves will 
grow. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 50c.
