ATLEE BURPEE & CO., PHILADELPHIA. BURPEE'S HARD HEAD is appropriately named, as it is un- doubtedly t/ie hardest-heading of all lettuces. It grows very rapidly and heads extremely early; the heads are nearly as solid as cab- l>age. It is the most beautiful of all lettuce when ready for vise; the outer leaves are tinged, wiih brownish-red, changing toward the center of the head from a beautiful golden yellow to a creamy white. It is as pabtable as it is beautiful; very tender; never bit- ter, of a sweet buttery flavor; // surpasses in quality all other va- rieties of cabbage lettuce. It is ready for use from the time it is three inches across imiil it runs to seed, and always crisp and lender. From the sample packets distrit)u- ted for trial, and our sales, we have received but one verdict, and that is—" the quickest in forming heads, the hardest heads of all, and the best for flavor and long standing^ Per pkt. lO cts.; oz. 25 cts.; X ^ 75 ^^^-5 P^^ $ Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original W.
