SENSATIONAL NEW LETTUCE 
It Heads in Hot Weather 


Introduced in 1944 as a heat re- 
sistant variety and for which it 
was awarded a bronze medal, 
“Great Lakes” has lived up to all 
claims made for it. 
Froven— From Cuba, a cus- 
tomer writes, “With Great 
Lakes lettuce seeds, I was 
able to obtain the first head 
lettuce after trying with every 
type and kind of seed adver- 
tised.’”’—Oct. 12, 1944. 
Great Lakes (B.M., A.A.S., 1944). 
Imperial type. The best Summer 
lettuce to date, being remarkably 
resistant to heat drought and tip- 
burn. Being slow-in-going-to-seed, 
it insures heads, even in hot 
weather and by the amateur, too. 
Its crispy, thick leaves fold well 
over solid heads, which when un- 
ravelled make desirable salad 
pieces; and most delicious.
