See Illustration On Front Cover 
During the dull season each year, in order 
to give employment to our help, we fill 
literally millions of packages of seeds for 
these collections by machinery, and can 
therefore sell them so cheaply, The seeds 
used are all of the same high Salzer quality, 
all are northern grown and carefully tested 
at our great Cliffwood Farms. 
Mrs. William E. Buline, Lone Tree, Iowa, 
writes, “We have a very nice garden from 
your Dollar Vegetable Collection.”

CELTUCE 
The new vegetable with a new taste thrill 
from the interior of China! The young 
leaves are eaten as lettuce and the matured 
stalks are peeled of their tough outer skin 
and the heart eaten either raw, or cooked. 
Celtuce is ie delicious, with a taste all 
of its own, perhaps slightly like celery, but 
different and milder. 
Celtuce is really a distinct species of let- 
tuce, but grows differently and has more 
uses. The young leaves are used as lettuce 
or cooked like spinach. As a raw vegetable, 
the stalks are peeled and cut into five inch 
lengths and split lengthwise, chilled, and 
served like celery or raw carrots. Also de- 
licious cooked like asparagus or in soups. 
Celtuce is easy to grow. Plants quickly 
form a rosette of light green leaves, and in 
less than 90 days the 
stalks are usable. The 
stalks are solid, with 
a delicate delicious 
pale green heart, 
crisp and brittle. Sow 
seed from early 
spring to July 1. Be 
sure to give it a trial 
this spring. 356—
