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 Cauliflower cannot be surpassed. For 
packers and pickle growers it has no equal, yielding, as it does, im- 
mense, 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 abil- 
ity 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 
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 particularly at- 
tractive 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 market- 
ing. Pkt., 25c; %4 oz., $1.00; 14 oz., $1.75; oz., $3.00; 2 oz., $4.75; 
Y% tb., $9.00; 1 lb., $34.00. 
Cabbage, Cauliflower and Allied Vegetables—By Allen. Of Great 
Value to Growers, $2.00 postpaid. 
Culture—The Seed for early planting should be 
sown in February or March in a hot-bed, trans- 
planting the plants when large enough into an- 
other 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 plant- 
ing the Seed should be sown in May in a cold 
frame or open ground in soil that is well pulver- 
ized. Any good garden soil made rich by manur- 
ing, will suit. When the heads begin to form the 
leaves should be tied together to prevent the flow- 
er’s becoming sunburnt and tough. In order to 
have them tender and of good flavor they must be 
gathered before they become too large. 
1 oz. for about 5,000 plants. Set in rows 2% feet 
apart and 1%% 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 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 
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 Cauli- 
flower 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., 20c; % oz., 80c; 
2 ozs., $4.50; 
IZ oz., $1.50; oz., $2.50; 
1% |b., $8.00; 1 1b., $30.00. 
Extra Early Dwarf Erfurt (Extra Selected)—Previous to the intro- 
duction 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; 1% oz., 80c; % oz., $1.50; oz., $2.50; 
ozs., $4.50; 1% lb., $8.00.
