LETTUCE. CALIFORNIA CREAM BUTTER. See novelties. BIG BOSTON. Pee novelties. BARTELDES DENVER MARKET. It is an early variety of Head Lettuce either for forcing or open ground. It forms large solid heads of a good light green color, and is very slow to go to seed. The leaves are beautifully marked and blistered and very crisp and tender and of excellent flavor. By these blistered leaves it distinguishes itself from any other kind of lettuce now grown. The shape of the head resembles somewhat the "Hanson," but is more oblong. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c.
