Forms Perfect Heads When All Other Varieties Fail to 

 Produce a Crop 



This foremost cauliflower originated in Denmark and is truly 

 most outstanding since it will produce attractive, remarkably 

 large heads during dry seasons wfien all other varieties of cauli- 

 flower 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 

 jiot in any way harm it.

Culture: For extra early Cauliflower start the seed oi the early, quick maturing 

 varieties in the fall in a cold frame or in early spring in a hot-bed. When 

 large enough, transplant to the garden or field. For a main crop to harvest 

 during summer and autumn, sow the seed in May or early June. When trans- 

 planting, set the plants 2 to 3 ft. apart each way. One packet wOl produce 

 about 150 plants, one ounce about 3,000 plants. Four ounces are required for 

 one acre. 



164 Maule's Prize Earliest (90 days) ij* 



Extra Early, the Largest, and Surest Header 



We consider this extra early strain the finest, largest, and most 

 attractive cauliflower. Every plant produces a head. It is a 

 sure header whether planted for forcing in frames or grown out- 

 doors 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. No one who has had experience with Maule's Prize 

 Earliest is likely to grow any other for the early market. When 

 the seed is sown under glass in February and transplanted after 

 danger of frost is over, perfect heads are produced in the early 

 days of June. •

170 Super Snowball (90 days) ij; 



The Earliest, Most Beautiful, Snow White, 

 Solid Heads 



One of the earliest varieties and remarkable for 

 its uniformity of size, shape, and tj'pe. Under 

 favorable growing conditions, every plant will 

 produce a head. It heads so evenly that the entire crop may be 

 harvested within a short time after it begins to mature. The 

 plants are vigorous and the erect leaves quite large and curl 

 over the heads protecting them from the sun. The large heads 

 are pure white, solid, and very firm. In most of the states prob- 

 ably the best crop is raised from seed sown about the middle of 

 May and transplanted in July, allowing the plants to make their 

 growth during a cool period which is undoubtedly the best for 

 raising cauliflower.

172 Early Favorite (110 days) 



Second Early ; Heat and Drought-Resistant 



Early Favorite forms large, solid heads of re- 

 markable size. It is classed as one of the best 

 second 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 favor- 

 ite with both home gardeners and market 

 growers.

168 Early Snowball (95 days) ^ 



Large, Solid, White Heads. A Sure Cropper 



This standard cauliflower is known everywhere. It is a great 

 favorite in the home garden and with market growers. Produces 

 large, solid, white heads and does best in a moderately cool 

 climate. The individual heads average about 9 in. in diameter 

 though they will grow as much as 12 in. across under favorable 

 conditions. Its earliness makes it also desirable for forcing under 

 glass during winter and spring. One of the most dependable and 

 best quality varieties.

 Giant 



(130 days) 



A Splendid Long 



Season Variety 



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 pro- 

 tection against discolora- 

 tion. Pkt. 10c; Vi oz. 15c
