garden, market or pickling. Its beautiful solid heads are ready for the

Dry Weather Cauliflower 
‘Reaches Perfection When Ordinary Sorts Fail 
_ This desirable strain originated in Denmark, but has been 
fully tested in America with the most favorable results. It pro- 
|duces a large, solid, pure white head, maturing in about 95 
days, a little later than Maule’s Prize Earliest. It isin all 
espects a first-class cauliflower, but is especially and pecu- 
larly adapted to dry situations and to resisting the effects of 
lroughts. It will also do well in moist or wet seasons, making 
Jeads equal to any. 




Packet, 20 cents; quarter ounce, 90 cents; ounce, $3.25; 
_. . quarter pound, $11.00; pound, $40.00, postpaid. 


Seed for early cauliflower may be started in Autumn in a cold frame, or in early Spring ina hotbed. For main crop, 
Summer and Autumn, the seed should be sown in May or June. A packet will produce about 150 plants, an ounce about 3000 plants; 4% pound 
for an acre. Set the plants 2 to 3 feet apart each way. Ready to use in 8 to 120 days. 
Fight worms with Bug Death, Hellebore or Slug Shot. 


16 Early Snowball Cauliflower 
Large Solid White Heads. 
This standard variety is known everywhere, either in the home garden 
or with the market gardeners. Produces large solid white heads when 
conditions are ordinarily favorable in about 90 days. Averages about 
9 inches and often attains a size of 12 inches in diameter. 
Being one of the earliest strains of cauliflower it becomes one of the 
most popular sorts, either for forcing under glass during winter and 
spring, or for planting in the open ground. The plants are of compact 
habit, which enables close planting, producing one-third more heads on 
the same space of ground than can be procured from most other sorts, 
excepting Maule’s Prize Earliest. 
A desirable yariety for sowing in the early Spring, as well as for late 
Summer or for Fall use outdoors. 
Packet, 20 cents; quarter ounce, 80 cents; ounce, $3.00; 
quarter pound, $10.00; pound,$37.50, postpaid.
