 Culture. For earliest Cauliflower, raise plants by sowing in 

 hotbed 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 dressing of nitrate of soda and potash 

 are of much help. Set plants 2 to 2)/ 2 feet apart each way. For late 

 Cauliflower to mature during pickling season (August 15 to October 1 0) 

 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.

55. Snow Ball Earliest Cauliflower. Our Snow Ball Cauli- 

 flower is the earliest, most hardy, and in fact the Cauliflower that 

 you can plant and expect a crop of true, firm, snow-white heads. You 

 cannot get better Snow Ball Cauliflower Seed no matter what price you 

 pay. There is but one stock of Cauliflower that is better, and that is 

 Bolgiano's New Century Cauliflower. Many of the beautiful, shapely 

 heads measure from 10 to 12 inches in diameter. Our Cauliflower seed 

 is saved from absolutely perfect plants and is grown by the most 

 experienced and critical growers in localities best suited for perfect 

 development. Best for forcing; best for Wintering over early crop.

Carrots 



Culture. Carrots do best in warm, deep, rather light and fairly fertile 

 soil that is 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 May, 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.
