PARIS WHITE COS LETTUCE 
The Cos Lettuces are distinguished from other lettuces in that their 
leaves are elongated and almost always somewhat spoon-shaped. They 
are grown in exactly the same way as other lettuce. When young, the 
leaves are pale green. When full grown, they form a loose, conical head, 
outer leaves light green and rather crimped, inner leaves very pale green 
with the midrib white and very prominent. Very crisp and has a de- 
licious flavor. 
Succeeds very well everywhere, never wilts under the severest sun and 
can be grown to an immense size; plants weighing six pounds have been 
grown of this variety.

CHINESE OR CHICKEN LETTUCE 
You have doubtless often read that lettuce is an excellent feed for 
chickens. In this variety you will find a feed that vields more than other 
green feeds, and that is much preferred by poultry. When Salzer’s Chicken 
Lettuce is cut, it grows rapidly again, and may be cut again and again. 
The yield is extremely heavy; grows 3 to 4 feet high and does not form a 
head. For table use, it perhaps will be found too coarse. If you have any 
chickens, by all means sow some this spring. 
578—Pkgz., 5c; oz., 14e; 2 07., 26¢3; Y% Ib., 39e3 Th., $1.25, postpaid. 

I have always had good success with everything from Salzer’s. Have been ordering for 65 years, first for my mother, 
later for myself. Am 80 years old and enjoy my garden.—Mrs. G. W. Bauder, 609 So. Meldrum St., Ft. Collins, Colo.
