EARLY SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER. 



CURRIE'S DANISH MARKET 

 CAULIFLOWER. 



"Dry Weather" — Extra Selected. 



Conies in about three weeks later than our Selected Early 

 Snowball. Heads larger and firmer. 



Our stock of this grand Cauliflower 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 obtained during the seasons of 

 1910 and 1911. 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.

IVew Extra Early Snowball or Danish Perfection — Pkt. 

 25c; % oz. $1.00; oz. $3.50; % lb $12.00 



A new Snowball which in trials both in this country and in 

 Denmark, whence it originates, has proven itself to be 10 to 12 

 days earlier than the highly prized, very popular Early Snow- 

 ball. These trials showed also an unusual uniformity in ma- 

 turing, the crops being taken off clean at practically the first 

 cutting. It should prove a great favorite with market gar- 

 deners and others shipping to market. 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 unqualifiedly recommend this new sort 

 as worthy the careful grower's best efforts. 

 Extra Early Paris — Heads smaller than any of the preced- 

 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 many leaves 'which 

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



Veltch's -Autumn Giant — A large late variety of vigorous 

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



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 harden- 

 ing them off, preparatory 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 manur- 

 ing, 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 discolored and unsalable. The 



heads measure eight to 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 standard 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. % pkt. 15c; 

 pkt. 25c; Vi 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 Snowball this was the best 

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

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

 14 oz. 75c; oz. $2.25; 2 ozs. $4.25; \i lb. $8.00; 1 lb $30.00
