Cauliflower — Manns' White Mountain, Grown in Maryland as easily as cabbage. 



CAULIFLOWER 



1 ounce to 2,000 plants. 



For an early crop sow the seed either indoors or in a hot- 

 bed in January or February, transplanting them to 2 or 3 

 inches apart, thus allowing the plants to put forth a vigor- 

 ous growth before being set in the permanent rows. 



As soon as danger of freezing is over, set the plants in the 

 open ground in rows 2^^ to 3 feet apart and 18 inches apart 

 in the row. Cultivate often and thoroughly. For fall crop 

 sow the seeds during April or May. It is well to plan so 

 that the early crop heads before very hot weather and the 

 late crop matures after hot weather.
