When seen in the sunshine, truly this lettuce seems to be covered with small pearls of ice. Hence the name '' Ice Lettucewas given to it. It grows very quickly, and in all respects must commend itself to those who try it. Per pkt., 10 cts.: oz., 25 cts. EverlDearing CucmlDer. This is an en- tirely new and uni- que variety.
