ANDREWS-BURRI SEED ANNUAL AND PRICE LiST 

LETTUCE... Continued 
GRAND RAPIDS U. S. NO. 1, b. s. (Mildew 
Resistant) —Developed by Dr.I.C. Jagger of the 
U. S. Department of Agriculture, and is resist- 
ant to mildew. About the same as Grand Rap- 
ids except that the leaf margins of U. 8. No. 1 
are little more deeply cut and heavily frilled; 
the color a little duller and lighter green. Rec- 
ommended for general planting as it stands 
longer without bolting to seed than other 
strains. 
EARLY CURLED SIMPSON, w. s.—Early. 
Also well known as ‘White Seeded Simpson.” 
Very hardy and dependable; particularly popu- 
lar for home gardens. Plant large, compact, 
bright, light lustrous green; leaves broad, 
frilled, firm, crisp, sweet and of good quality. 
BLACK SEEDED SIMPSON, b. s.—Early. 
Dependable in all parts of America and widely 
grown in home and market gardens. Plant 
large, attractive, compact, with broad, frilled, 
light green leaves that are of fine, crisp texture 
and splendid quality. 
DARK GREEN, Cos w. s.—A medium large, 
dark green variety which forms a good-sized, 
well-folded head. 
CORNELL NO. 456—A selection of the Im- 
perial type developed by the United States De- 
partment of Agriculture and Cornell Experi- 
ment Station. Has proved very sure heading 
when grown in the East during the summer 
months. Particularly adapted for growing on 
muck soils. Frame and head slightly smaller 
than Great Lakes and of lighter green color. 
Resistant to tip burn and early bolting. 
GREAT LAKES (New)—Tipburn Resistant— 
New Iceberg Type for Summer Growing—This 
new variety is remarkable for its ability to 
stand up and produce good, hard heads even in 
the hot weather of midsummer. It is highly 
resistant to tipburn, heads nearly 100% under 
a wide range of conditions and stands without 
bolting longer than any other kind. 
The plants are large and vigorous, and the 
heads are of good size and attractive deep 
green color. They have heavy ribs and crisp, 
thick leaves that fold well over to make very 
solid, hard heads. Planted in the spring, they 
are ready to cut about a week later than Im- 
perial 44 and will remain in condition a long 
time thereafter. 
Great Lakes is best adapted for upland grow- 
ing. See prices at right. 
NEW YORK NO. 515—This is another early- 
maturing strain, but its most outstanding fea- 
ture is its sure heading ability. Each plant 
makes a big, solid head, slightly darker than 
No. 12 and rounder. It stands fairly long with- 
out bolting. 
14 
IMPERIAL NO. 847—A new black-seeded 
strain of New York which may prove to be bet- 
ter than New York No. 12. The large-framed 
plants have large, rounded, medium green 
heads with abundant wrapper leaves. This 
strain shows high resistance to brown blight 
and tipburn. Specially recommended for sum- 
mer production, as well as spring and fall. Later 
than New York No. 12, but stands longer. 
IMPERIAL 44—High quality Iceberg for 
spring or fall crop—For early spring and fall 
crops, Imperial 44 is still the best Iceberg type 
to grow in the East, both on muck and upland. 
It is a sure heading, high quality lettuce, pro- 
ducing crops that compete successfully with 
western-grown Iceberg. The heads are large, 
well formed and solid, and practically every 
plant makes a fine head. It has considerable 
resistance to tipburn and produces lettuce of 
very superior quality. We highly recommend 
Imperial 44 to all growers. See prices below. 
NEW YORK NO. 12, w. s.—For many years 
a standard “Iceberg’”’ type for market, with 
solid cabbage heads, light green leaves slightly 
curled on edges. Stands heat well. 
IMPERIAL NO. 456—80 days—Developed 
by Cornell Experiment Station as a variety 
suitable for those who wish to grow head let- 
tuce in July and August. Of the Imperial type, 
and said to withstand high temperatures and 
tipburn better than Imperial No. 44.
