EARLY SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER. 



CURRIE'S DANISH MARKET 

 CAULIFLOWER. 



"Dry Weather" — Extra Selected. 



Comes in about three weeks later than our Selected Early 

 Snowball. Heads larger and firmer. 



Our stock of this grand Cauiflower cannot be surpassed. 

 For packers and pickle growers it has no equal, yielding, as 

 it does, immense, solid heads, many of which weigh over ten 

 pounds each of solid flower. 



Every plant produces a head, many of them so large that 

 three fill a bushel basket and all perfectly solid. As the name 

 "Dry Weather" implies, this variety possesses to a marked 

 degree the ability to resist without deterioration extremely 

 droughty conditions such as have been experienced during 

 recent seasons. Because of this constitutional hardiness many 

 growers, especially those in the dryer, hotter sections, pin 

 their faith to this fine sort as against all other varieties. 



Pkt. 20c; % oz. 75c; oz. $2.25; 2 ozs. $4.25; % lb. $S.0O; 

 1 lb. $30.00. 



EXTRA EARLY SNOWBALL OR DANISH PERFECTION 



— A new Snowball which in trials both in this country 

 and in Denmark, whence it originates, has shown an 

 unusual uniformity in maturing, the crops being taken 

 off clean at practically the first cutting. The leaves, 

 very closely enfolding the head, give it a particularly 

 attractive appearance when displayed for sale, and as 

 the inner leaves almost cover the snow-white flower the 

 necessity of early tying up as in the case of other early 

 sorts is largely avoided. We feel that we can unquali- 

 fiedly recommend this new sort as worthy the careful 

 grower's best efforts. % pkt. 15c; pkt. 25c; % oz. 85c; 

 oz. $2.75; 2 ozs. $5.00; Y* lb. $9.50; 1 lb $35.00

 ing. Pkt. 5c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.75; 1 lb $6.00 



Lenormand's Short Stemmed — A compact grower, very 

 hardy, heading late, and producing manv leaves which 

 protect it. Pkt. 5c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.75; lb $6.00 



Velteh's Autumn Giant — A large late variety of vigorous 

 habit. Pkt. 5c; oz. 50c; % lb. $1.75; 1 lb $6.00 



CAULIFLOWER. 



German, Blumenkohl. French, Chofleur. 



The Seed for early planting should be sown in 

 February or March in a hot-bed, transplanting the 

 plants when large enough into another or the same 

 frame, and gradually hardening them off, prepara- 

 tory to planting them out as early as the ground is 

 in a fit condition. For late planting the Seed should 

 be sown in May in a cold frame or open ground in 

 soil that is well pulverized. Any good garden soil, 

 made rich by manuring, will suit. 

 1 oz. for about 1,000 plants. Set in rows 2% feet 

 apart and 1% feet in the row. % lb. to 

 the acre. 



EARLY SNOWBALL-Extra Selected. 



By far the best early sort for the market gardener 

 and trucker's use, and the standard variety 

 for the amateur. Sure to head and remain 

 pure and white when others are dis- 

 colored and unsalable. The heads 

 measure eight tf> ten inches 

 across when grown in good 

 soil. 



The Seed we offer is of very superior quality and 

 is grown for us by one of the most reliable 

 Cauliflower growers in Europe, and the great 

 care taken to keep it up to the highest stan- 

 dard is manifested in the superiority of the 

 crops grown from it every year. It is of 

 dwarf, compact habit, heads very large and 

 pure white. y 2 pkt. 15c; pkt. 25c; % oz. 75c; 



oz. $2.50; 2 ozs. $4.75; % lb. $9.00; 1 lb $32.00 



Extra Early Dwarf Erfurt (Extra Selected) — Previous to 

 the introduction of the Snowall this was the best variety 

 for forcing, and the strain we offer is superior to much 

 of the so-called Snowball Cauliflower. Pkt. 20c; % oz. 

 75c; oz. $2.25; 2 ozs. $4.25; % lb. $8.00; 1 lb $30.00
