LETTUCE, GREAT LAKES 
HEAD LETTUCE 
GREAT LAKES—This is of the Imperial type which is so largely 
used by truck gardeners. What chiefly distinguishes Great 
Lakes from other varieties of the Imperial type is its in-

produce solid heads under adverse conditions. 
Strain 428—75 to 80 days. Earlier and more uniform than 
original Great Lakes. Slightly smaller but equally resistant 
to heat and tip burn. Underside Yeaves are darker green. 
Excellent for spring, summer and fall cutting.
