Large Algiers. 
respect ; stands the heat better than 
any other. 
Large Algiers, A French va- 
riety of the same season as the Le 
Normands, but a surer producer. 
It isone of the best kinds, and has 
taken the place of other second 
early varieties since it has been in- 
troduced. 
Early italian Giamt. Very 
large fine sort, not quite so late as 
the Late Italian, and almost as 
large. The heads are quite large, 
white and compact, and of delicious 
flavor. Irecommend it to all who 
have not tried it. When sown at 
the proper season, it will head with 
certainty, and will not fail to give 
satisfaction. 
Late Etalianm Giamt. This is the largest of all the Cauliflowers. It is grown 
to a considerable extent in the neighborhood of New Orleans. It is very large 
and compact; should not be sown later than June, as it takes from seven to 
nine months before it heads. 
Emperial. A variety from France, very similar to the Le Normands, perhaps 
a little earlier; very good. I recommend it highly. 
Early Scarlet Horn. 
Half Long Scarlet French. 
Improved Long Orange. 
Long Red without core. 
Early Italian Giant Cauliflower. 
CARROT. 
JAROTTE (Fr.), MOEHRE OR GELBE RUEBE (Ger.), ZANAHORIA (Sp.) 
St. Valerie. 
Half Long Lue. 
Danver’s Intermediate. 
Requires a sandy loam, well manured, and deeply spaded up. Should be sown 
in drills ten to twelve inches apart, so the plants can be worked after they are up.
