LETTUCE — SUMMER TRIUMPH 
Best Tasting Lettuce in Existence 
Since our introduction of Summer Triumph in 1933, this 
lettuce has received very enthusiastic recommendation from 
the public. We received a small sample of this lettuce from 
Mrs. Adamek in Texas, who had this variety for 30 years. 
She called it Dandelion lettuce, due to the shape of the leaves. 
We changed the name to Summer Triumph as this variety 
is the best for summer use. Even in the hottest summers 
it retains its tenderness and sweetness. This lettuce is rich- 
er in vitamins than any other variety. The leaves are light 
green, heads are small and loose, but they have delicious, 
rich, buttery flavor, seldom going to seed. It stands heat 
better than any other variety without wilting or getting 
bitter. Be sure to give it a trial this year.

GOLDEN MIDGET SWEET CORN 
GOLDEN MIDGET — A very early variety, in fact the 
earliest of them all. Planting to eating stage is 60 days. A 
dwarf plant only 3% feet high, with 3 to 6 ears on every 
stalk. The ears are only about 5 inches long and very sweet 
and tender. This is the most delicious sweet corn in exis- 
tance. Be sure to include this sweet corn in your list.

BEET — WINTER KEEPER 
Best Winter Keeper — If you want a beet that will remain 
tender and sweet all summer long and well into the winter, 
try “Winter Keeper’. This is the best table beet we have 
ever eaten. It makes no difference whether the beets are 
young or old, small or large, they are always tender. 
This beet grows slowly and should noi be depended upon 
for early use, but when the early beets get tough and poor, 
the Winter Keeper will be found to be of the finest quality 
even though very large and just as tender as the young early 
beets. They retain their fine quality when stored in a cold 
place for winter use. 
This is not a variety that is suitable for general market, 
as it is not a handsome beet to look at, but for home gardens 
and the roadside stand where quality counts for more thap 
appearance, Winter Keeper will be found a valuable variety 
The color is very deep red with light colored rings. 
Pkt. 10c; 1 oz. 30c; %4 Ib. 95c; % Ib. $1.75.
