Childs'Half Century — We all know how much careful selection year after year has to do with the quality of our vegetables, but there are few things that can claim a half-ceuturv descent from only the choicest and best specimens of one type. This lettuce can do so, however, and we are not surprised, therefore, at its superior qualities. Its leaves fold together, forming a long, loose head, remarkable for tenderness and delicious flavor. It may seem a good deal to say, but it- is, nevertheless, a fact that for tenderness, brittleness and delicious quality this Lettuce grown in the open ground surpasses any other sort grown under glass- Nothing can approach it in quality. It is so brittle and tender that its leaves break to pieces in handling, if care is not used. It is a quick grower, attaining its full size in forty to fifty days, and remains in fine condition for a very longtime.
