Of superior quality and beautiful appear- ance, the Grand Rapids Lettuce is a strong grower, free from rot, and keeps risp and tender without wilting, when exposed for sale, longer than any other forcing Lettuce. We have also found it a desirable variety for early spring sowing in the open ground. The engrav- ing is from a photograph. Per pfr" pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 20 cts.; | lb 60 cts.; per lb $ GOLD NUGGET.
