164 Maule's Prize Earliest $ 



The Earliest, Largest, and Surest Header of any 



Cauliflower we have Tested (90 days) 



We consider this at the top of the list as the earliest, finest, and most attrac- 

 tive cauliflower. Every plant produces a head. It is a sure header whether 

 planted for forcing in frames or grown outdoors for either early or late crop. 

 The heads mature all at about the same time. The growth of the plants is 

 dwarf and compact so that the plants can be set as close as 18 in. apart in the 

 frame or field. Such close planting naturally means a greatly increased yield 

 from a given space of ground. It is particularly desirable for forcing under 

 glass. The compact, perfectly white, closely formed heads are most attractive 

 and are sure to bring a high price in the market. Pkt. 25c; Vi oz. 90c; 

 Vi oz. $1.50; oz. $2.70; Vi lb. $8.10; Vi lb. $14.85; lb. $27.00. 



172 Early Favorite 



Early; Heat and Drought Resistant (115 days) 



Early Favorite forms large, solid heads of remarkable attractiveness. 

 It is classed as one of the best early varieties, producing a splendid 

 crop of pure white heads composed of a fine grained, closely formed 

 curd. Though it is best if grown in a moderately cool climate, it has 

 proven to be quite resistant to heat and drought. Considering all its 

 splendid qualities, it is no wonder that it has become a great favorite 

 with both home gardeners and market growers. Its season of maturity 

 places it in the class of second-early varieties which are ready for cutting 

 about 20 days later than the very earliest sorts. A highly desirable 

 variety. Pkt. 10c; Vi oz. 40c; Vi oz. 65c; oz. $1.00; Vi lb. $3.00; 

 Vi lb. $5.50; lb. $10.00. 



173 Autumn Giant 



A Splendid Late Variety (130 days) 



This is the largest and finest of all late cauliflower. The heads grow 

 to truly enormous size. They are firm, very white, and are composed of 

 closely formed curd. The quality is superb. The plants make a large 

 quantity of foliage and therefore require ample room for growing. The 

 foliage incurves over the head and serves as a protection against dis- 

 coloration of the heads. Pkt. 10c; Vi oz. 15c;V2 0z. 25c; oz. 45c; 

 Vilb. $1.40; V 2 lb. $2.60; lb. $4.75.

 that is most impressive. Of compact growth with ample rich green 

 foliage which serves as a protection for the pure white, smooth 

 curd. Presents a most attractive appearance before and after 

 cooking. Pkt. 25c; >/ 4 oz. SI. 10; y 2 oz. $1.80; oz. $3.30;

Quality Cauliflower 



CULTURE: For extra early cauliflower start the seed of the 

 early, quick maturing varieties in the fall in a coldframe or in 

 early spring in a hotbed. When large enough, transplant to the

 autumn, sow the seed in May or early June. A packet will pro- 

 duce about 150 plants. One ounce will give 3000 plants. For one 

 acre x /i lb. is required. When transplanting, set the plants 2 to 

 3 ft. apart each way. Ready in 90 to 130 days.

Forms Perfect Heads When All Other Varieties Fail 

 to Produce a Crop (105 days) 



This foremost cauliflower originated in Denmark and is truly most out- 

 standing since it will produce attractive, remarkably large heads during 

 dry seasons when all other varieties of cauliflower will be a complete 

 failure. It is a quality cauliflower in all respects. The closely formed, 

 pure white curd is attractive and very tender. Though it grows well in 

 dry seasons, moist or wet seasons do not in any way harm it. It is an ex- 

 cellent home garden and market variety which we are sure will please you 

 particularly well. Pkt. 15c; Vi oz. 75c; y 2 oz. $1.25; oz. $2.30;
