HOT WEATHER HEAD LETTUCE 
GREAT LAKES. 75 days. Of the Iceberg type, bred to make 
tight heads in hot weather, this variety is actually too 
good. So reluctant is it to run to seed that almost no 
seed was produced to sell this year, when it won top 
place, with a bronze medal in the All-America trials for 
new varieties. What little seed there is naturally is high 
priced. Offered only in packets. Pkt., 25c. 

SIMPSON EARLY CURLED. 55 days. White-seeded. A very ex- 
tensively used early loose-leaved or clustering variety. Leaves 
light green, slightly frilled and much blistered. Crisp, sweet 
and tender. Especially adapted for thick sowing. Very fine 
for poultry feeding. Pkt., 10c.

up a stout stalk 3 to 4 feet high. Just loaded with leaves. 
. When once cut it starts to grow again. Pkt., 10c. 
OAK LEAF. 40 days. This novel variety excels in ability to with- 
stand hot weather without turning bitter. Its leaves are small, 
tender, and deep green, testifying to their richness in vitamins. 
It has the superior butter-type flavor. Pkt., 10c. 
HEAD LETTUCE 7 
MAY KING. 66 days. Seed white. This is a handsome, extremely 
early, compact Cabbage or heading variety for the home gar- 
den and market, forming very firm heads of medium size and 
excellent quality. The color is light yellowish green, tinged with 
reddish brown when mature. The inner leaves blanch rich 
golden yellow, very tender and buttery. The plant is very com- 
pact for so large a head. Pkt., 10c. 
BIG BOSTON. 75 days. This market variety is very popular for 
outdoor culture and is also in demand as a compact, large 
heading, forcing sort for cold frames. The plants are large, 
very hardy and vigorous. The leaves are broad, comparatively 
smooth but wavy at the edge, very hardy and vigorous. Thin, 
very hard and crisp. In color bright light green, the head slight- 
ly tinged with reddish brown. The inner leaves blanch to an 
attractive greenish white, tinged with light yellow. Pkt., 10c. 
UNRIVALED. Same as Big Boston, but smaller and earlier. Pkt.,

HANSON HEAD. 80 days. Seed white. A very desirable late sum- 
mer Lettuce. The plant is compact and forms a Cabbage-like 
head which remains in condition longer than summer-head 
sorts. Outer. leaves bright, yellowish green and broad. Inner 
leaves white, crisp and sweet. Pkt., 10c. ;

more curled. Pkt., 10c.

from other sorts, the head being elongated .and of conical 
form, about 9 inches in height and about 6 inches in diameter.

PRIZEHEAD or ONONDAGA. This remarkable variety was intro- 
duced by us many years ago. A splendid greenhouse sort, slight- 
ly fringed, forming a semi-head, a wonderful shipping and 
keeping variety, green under glass and of slightly reddish cast 
when grown in the open. Tender, crisp. Pkt.,.10c.
