Cauliflower '-^^^^"^ 



One ounceof seed will produce about 3000 plants. 

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

 nished at pound rates. 



CCLTDRE. For earliest Cauliflower, raise plants by sowing- in 

 hotbed or greenhouse during- Januar3- 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 waterapplications during dry weather, especially 

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

 and potash are of much help. Setplants 2 to2/< 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.

CULTURE. Carrots do best in warm, deep, rather light and fairly fertile soil thatis well supplied with humus, or on strong loam, having been in clover 

 and broken the year before. For earliest crop, sow seed of the early, short-rooted sorts in April or Ma.v, in drills a foot apart and thin to 2 inches. For 

 main crop, sow in May or June, or for succession even in July, using the long-rooted varieties. The rows for these may be 16 to 20 inches apart, and the 

 plants thinned to 2. 3 or even 4 inches. To raise Carrots for slock, the rows may be made wide enough apart, say 2 to iVi feet, to allow of cultivation by 

 horsepower. In sowing Carrot or other small seeds, especially during dry -weather, pains should be taken to firm the soil well over the seed, either by 

 means of the feet, or with the roller of the garden drill.
