“THE, ane ALL AMERICA WwW NNER | 

This new iordes ae more Tae ae itself this summer for it has 
been producing delicious, crisp heads everywhere it was planted. We 
saw large plantings in the Sacramento Valley that were in perfect condi- 
tion in the midst of temperatures that were as high as 105, when other 
lettuce would not head. In our trial grounds in Portland, Great Lakes 
outranked every other variety and produced fine, crisp, tasty heads all 
summer long. Other reports from all over readily show why this new va- 
tender 
riety was an All-America Winner in 1944, and we cannot recommend 
this too highly as not only a summer lettuce that does not readily bolt, 
but as one of the very best year-round lettuces because of its crispness
