Marshall's Matchless Vegetable Seeds 

LETTUCE 
One ounce will sow 200 feet of drill 
Sow in the open ground as early as possible, 
barely covering the seed. If the hotbed is 
used let it be started quite early. Give but 
little heat and plenty of water and air on fine 
days. Let plants in the beds be about 
4 inches apart. As they increase in size thin 
them out or they will become weak. Plant for 
late use in a cool, partially shaded place 
in rich soil.
