CAULIFLOWER. 



THE MAULE SEED BOOK FOR 1907 



A splendid money crop where the soil Is rich and the climate cool and damp 



Culture.— Same as cabbage. Sometimes the seed is sowed in September, and the yoan 

 plants wintered over, to save time In spring. Pin or tie the leaves together after thi la^a 

 or flower has begun to form. This will preserve the snowy whiteness. An oums® at -~- 

 will produce about 3,500 plants if carefully managed.

MAULE-S PRIZE EARLIEST.— Heads the 

 list as the earliest, finest and handsomest cauli- 

 flower. Whether for forcing under glass or 

 growing in the open ground, and whether 

 planted early or late, it is the surest header of 

 all. It Is very dwarf and compact in habit of 

 growth, like the Snowball, and can be planted 

 as close as 18 inches each way for forcing, or 

 where space is limited. JSIaule's Prize Earliest 

 is particularly desirable for forcing under 

 glass, while in my open air trials every plant 

 has produced a head, excelling all other varie- 

 ties in earliness, size and quality. It is un- 

 questionably ahead. Packet, 25 cts.; 14 ounce, 

 $1.00; ounce, S3.00; }i pound, SIO.OO. 



AUTUMN GIANT — This is a large variety, 

 with flue, well-proportioned heads. The heads 

 are so well protected by the foliage as to remain 

 a long time fit for use. " Adapted to late culture. 

 Packet, 10 cents: ounce, 50 cents; i^ pound, S1.75. 



A1.%V.\YS HEADS iSee green pases.) 



DRY AVEATHER.— (See green pages.) 



EARLY .SiXO«"BAL.l.. — One of the most 

 popular standard sorts. It belongs to the 

 same group of caullfiowers as Maule's Prize 

 Earliest and stands ne.xt to it in point of earli- 

 ness and excellence. Produces heads 9 inches 

 across in this latitude by June 10th, and under 

 good treatment every plant will produce a head. 

 Packet, 20 cents; }^ ounce, 75 cents; ounce, $2.50. 



EARLIEST DWARF ERFURT This is 



a first-class cauliflower, and next to my 

 Prize Earliest and Snowball is the best and 

 surest to head. It would be a leauer, except for 

 the two especially fine types above mentioned. 

 As it is, it finds special favor in many sections. 

 Packet, 15 cents; ]4 ounce, 75 cents: ounce, S2.50. 



EXTRA EARLY PARIS Very early, pro- 

 ducing a good, white head. Head is large, solid 

 and compact. This cauliflower is frequently 

 used in forcing. Pkt., lOc; oz., BOc; l-^ lb., S2.2o. 



EARLY LONDON — This ie an early variety, 

 sure to head, and excellent in every way.
