Forms large, solid head of a good light-green color- The leaves are beautifully marked and blistered (like Savoy Cabbage) and crisp and tender; of excellent flavor. This is in many respects a most unique Lettuce, and one which will be very popular as soon as known,occupying the same place among Lettuce as Savoys do among Cabbages. Pkt.,5c.; oz , 15c ; lb., $1-25. May King—This remarkable variety has proved itself cap- able of satisfying the most exacting requirements that could be made of an early outdoor Lettuce; while it cant also be easily raised in a cold-frame. It is not easily affected by cold or wet weather, grows very quickly and produces, even in poor soil, splendid, globular heads, which are ready ten or fifteen days before other heading varieties and stand a long time before showing signs of running to seed. The leaves inside are of a golden-yel- low shade and in point of flavor unexcelled by any sort> Pkt. 5c : oz., 15c; lb., Big Boston—A very desirable large variety for forcing in cold-frames and for outdoor planting. In the kitchen garden there is no Letter variety to vise. Plants large, hardy, vigorous. Leaves broad, smooth, thin, of a light- green color, Heads large, handsome and solid when grown inside, somewhat more loose when grown in the garden- Pkt-, 5c: oz-. 15c: lb„ Cream Butter-A crisp, tender, richly flavored variety, forming large heads of a beautiful creamy color: medi- um early, and stands summer heat remark- ably well. This is one of the very best sum- mer varieties of head Lettuce we have ever grow
