Cauliflower 
CULTURE—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, 
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 gar- 
den soil made rich by manuring, will suit. 
When the heads begin to form the leaves 
should be tied together to prevent the flow- 
ers becoming sunburnt and tough. In 
order to have them tender and of good fla- 
vor they must be gathered before they be- 
come’ too large. 1 oz. for about 3,000 
plants. Set in rows 2/7 feet apart and 114 
feet in the row. 3 to 4 oz. to the acre. 
Our Cauliflower Seed is grown in Denmark 
and is the best that can be procured. 
EARLY SNOWBALL 
Extra Selected 
For years, this has been the best early 
sort for the market gardener and _ truck- 
er’s use, and the standard variety for the 
amateur. Sure to head and remain pure and 
white when others are discolored and unsal- 
able. The heads measure eight to ten inches 
across when grown in good soil. 
The seed we offer is of very superior qual- 
ity 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 superi- 
ority of the crops grown from it every year.

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 mark- 
ed degree the ability to resist without deterioration extreme- 
ly droughty conditions such as have been experienced -dur- 
ing recent seasons. Because of this constitutional hardiness 
many growers, especially those in the drier, hotter sections, 
pin their faith to this fine sort as against all other varieties.

EXTRA EARLY SNOWBALL or 
DANISH PERFECTION 
The leaves, very closely enfolding the head, give it a par- 
ticularly 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. It is the earliest strain of its type and 
recommended for extra early marketing. Pkt., 25c; 14 oz.,
