LETTUCE—Continued 
Marshall’s Matchless. This Lettuce is now 
conceded by connoisseurs to be the fin- 
est Lettuce introduced in many years. 
It is a cross between a head variety and 
the Cos type. It forms a loose-leaved 
head and its delicacy and flavor put it 
in a class of its own. If you have room 
for only one kind of Lettuce, we strong- 
ly recommend our Matchless. Pkt., 25c; 
14 0z., 40c; oz., 75c.

green ouside, with clear yellow heart;
