CAULIFLOWER 245 



whether greenhouse cauliflower should ever be packed in 

 larger lots than a dozen heads to the package. The 

 crates should be lined with paper, and if a fancy trade is 

 to be supplied, it will be a decided advantage to wrap 

 each head in oiled paper to keep it clean and free from 

 dust. 



Cauliflower which has been properly grown and sold 

 at average prices should yield a gross return of not less 

 than 12 to 15 cents a square foot of greenhouse area. 

 Prices for good heads are seldom less than $2 a dozen. 

 Perhaps $2.50 a dozen is about an average price for this 

 vegetable when grown under glass.
