CHICKEN OR 
RABBIT LETTUCE 
Feed All Spring and Summer 
The best green feed for chickens 
and rabbits. In this variety you will 
find a feed that yields as much or 
more than other green feeds. It is 
economical to grow, for when cut it 
resumes its growth rapidly and can 
be cut again and again; or the leaves 
can be pulled off each stem like the 
. Jersey Kale. The yield is extremely 
heavy. Chicken or Rabbit Lettuce is 
too coarse for a table variety. Grows 
3 to 4 feet high and just lgaded with 
large leaves. Large enough to com- 
mence feeding in 40 to 45 days.
