One ounce of seed will pyoduce about 3000 plants. 

 One-half ounce furnished at ounce rates , and one-half pound fur- 



nislied at pound rates. 

 CULTURE. For earliest Cauliflower, raise plants by sowing in 

 hoibed or greenhouse during January or February, and transplant 

 to flats or cold frames, 2 or 3 inches apart each way. Set in open 

 ground as soon in spring as the land can be put in good order. Soil 

 to be a warm, very rich, fibrous loam, well supplied with humus and 

 moisture. Copious water application during dry weather, especially 

 when the plants are heading, and light dressings of nitrate of soda 

 and potash are of much help. Set plants 2 to 2% feet apart each way. 

 For late Cauliflower to mature during the pickling season (August 

 15th to October 10th) start plants in open ground like late cabbages, 

 and handle them like that crop. After the heads begin to form, 

 draw leaves over and pin or tie them together to protect the head 

 from the sun.
