Bolgiano's Special Stock Big Boston Bolgiano's May King Lettuce 98. Early May King. Plants are of quick growth, practically all head and extremely handsome. From early spring plantings in the open ground they grow quickly to a diameter of 6 to 7 inches, with the broad, light-green outer leaves folding closely about the rovmd solid head; in cool weather the edges of these outer leaves are lightly tinged with brown. The inner leaves (practically the en- tire head) are blanched into a rich golden yellow and have a specially fine, rich buttery flavor. The round solid heads are so firmly folded that they can be shipped to dis- tant market and arrive in good condition. We recommend repeated plantings of this fine early variety in the spring, and again during August and September for fall use. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 1/4 lb. 35 cts.; lb. $ 342. Earliest Wayahead. shows a remarkable combi- nation of earliness, firm heading character, handsome ap- pearance and fine quality. Both in cold frames early in the spring and in the open ground—^in spring, summer and early fall months—it has proved to be not only the very ear- liest and surest heading of all early lettuces ever grown, but also of the very finest quality at all seasons. Way- ahead is not only earlier than "May King" and other choice extra early varieties, but the heads are larger and more tightly folded. Outer leaves are light green, inner leaves nicely blanched to a rich buttery-yellow tint; stands a long time before running to seed. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 1/4 lb. 35 cts.; lb. $ 324. Boston Market, or White-Seeded Tennis Ball. While of little or no value for outdoor planting, it is a splendid sort for growing under glass. Small hard heads. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 cts,; Vi lb
