A field of Snowball "X" Cauliflower for seed producfion on one of our 



California ranches. 



CAULIFLOWER 



Cauliflower, because of its special requirements as to soil and climate, has heretofore been 

 considered a seed crop which only some of the European countries could produce. Several 

 years ago we started on a program of experimentation and development looking forward to 

 the production of Cauliflower seed in this country, and we now offer seed of our own production 

 which has proved as satisfactory in every respect as that formerly imported. 



We believe that both the early maturing and main crop strains we offer will be found 

 well adapted for the production of Cauliflower in the various sections of this country and 

 we offer them to our customers with the fullest confidence that they will give excellent 

 satisfaction. 



We have indicated the number of days commonly required to produce heads, from the 

 date the young plants are set in the field Usually it is 30 to 35 days from the time seed is 

 sown until the young plants are ready for the open field.
