^BOLQIANO'5 PERFECTION IMPROVED DRUMHEAD SAVOY CABBAGE. 



TRUE AMERICAJV GROWN. 



THERE are many varieties of 

 Savoy Cabbage, but there is 

 one variety, " Bolgiano's Per- 

 fection," that surpasses them all 

 for uniformity of heads, beauty of 

 curl, EXTRA LARGE SIZE and 

 superior keeping- qualities. When 

 truckers have failed with other 

 stocks from severe drouths and 

 worms, Bolgiano's Perfection has 

 pulled through all right and come 

 out supreme, making the grower 

 happy by bringing him good re- 

 turns when Cabbages were scarce. 

 If you try it, you will say more 

 than we have.

CULTURE OF CAUUIFLOWER. 



For Spring and early Summer 

 crops sow in March or early in 

 April in hot-beds and transplant to 

 cold frame when sufficiently large, 

 and to the open ground as soon as 

 danger of hard freezing is over. 

 The plants will endure a light frost. 

 The soil should be made richer than 

 is ordinarily used. Give the plants 

 thorough culture and keep free 

 from worms with Slug Shot Insect 

 Powder. For late crops sow at 

 same time as for late Cabbage; 

 treat in the same manner. It should 

 be borne in mind that Cauliflower 

 WILL, NOT head up well in hot, 

 dry weather, and hence the sowing 

 should be so regulated as to bring 

 it to maturity either before the hot 

 Summer weather sets in or not un- 

 til the cooler weather of the Fall. 

 Water liberally. The size and qual- 

 ity of the heads will be greatly im- 

 proved. After the heads begin to 

 form draw the leaves over and pin 

 or tie them together to protect the 

 head from the sun.
