Culture 



The soil and culture requirements of Cauliflower and Cabbage 

 are similar. Seed may be sown and handled in the same way as 

 described in the Cabbage culture. It is best to plan your plantmg to 

 have no Cauliflower maturing in the hot summer months, as the cool 

 weather of late Spring and early Fall is best adapted for the growing 

 of perfect heads. 



Bolgiano's New Century Cauliflower 



54. The Best in the World 

 It heads when others faiL Large, perfect heads, 

 measure from 12 to 14 inches in diameter. The beautiful 

 white heads' are compact, deep and sohd. Heads will 

 outweigh those of any other strain. It is the earliest of 

 all Cauliflower. One-third more can be planted on the 

 same space than can be done with other varieties because 

 of its close growing, compact habit. It is the Most Care- 

 fully Grown Cauliflower Seed in the World. 



59. Extra Early Dwarf Erfurt. Small frame with 

 short outer leaves, medium heads of uniform quahty, 

 a good late variety. 



105. Danish Giant or Dry Weather Cauliflower. 



Well adapted to localities having dry spells. Produces 

 large solid heads, one week earlier than Snow Ball. 



55. Snow Ball Cauliflower. Early, very hardy, produces good size snow white heads, 

 celled. 



Bolgiano's Earliest Snow Ball Cauliflower 



Our strain of this variety is unex- 



Brussels Sprouts 



Culture. Sow in May, in the same manner as Cauliflower, and transplant in July, 2 feet apart in rows 2% feet apart. Brussels Sprouts ^^ the very best 

 Winter vegetable that can be grovra. It is as hardy as the nobimon Curled Greens. When cooked through, such sprouts melt in the mouth like the tenderest 

 Cauliflower, and are equally as good. If more widely known, Brussels Sprouts would be as popular as it is valuable. 



22. BOLGIANO'S MATCHLESS LONG ISLAND IMPROVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS. Resembles cabbage very closely 

 except that where the cabbage grows only one large head, the Brussels Sprouts grow large numbers of small, delicious, tender, 

 heads at each leaf joint, throughout the entire length of the stalk. These small heads measure from one and a half to two inches 

 in diameter, and are of light green color. This improved strain is an exceptionally heavy yielder. Plant grows frohi one and a 

 half to two feet high. Brussels Sprouts are usually offered for sale in market packed in quart boxes and always bring a very 

 high price. It is a profitable crop to grow. 



355. PARIS HALF DWARF BRUSSELS SPROUTS. 



variety, but is equal in quality. 



Being dwarf this variety is not as heavy a yielder as the larger 



Collards 



23. Georgia Southern, or Creole. Forms a large, loose, open head, 

 or a mass of leaves on a tall stem. Freezing does not injure but rather 

 improves their quality. Sow thick in drills, in rich ground, transplanting 

 when 4 inches high, or sow in drills where the plants are to remain and 

 thin to 1 or 2 feet apart in the row when of proper size. In the South, 

 sow froni January to May, and August to October. 



590. North Carolina Short Stem. A decided improvement, and has 

 proved very popular wherever grown. Has short stem, large spreading 

 leaves, very hardy, withstanding drought in Summer and cold in Winter. 

 Its flavor and cooking qualities are the very best.

Semesan Produces Finer Vegetables 



SEmesaN 



Makes Seeds Jfealtby 



Controls Disease 

 Increases Yields 

 Improves Quality 



PLANT and seed diseases are responsible foi" 

 poor yields and the unblemished quality of 

 many popular vegetables. The best means of 

 eliminating such wastes, consists of preventing 

 the cause at its source by the disinfection of 

 vegetable seeds with Du Pont gemesan. 



Semesan is the only chemical which can be 

 applied in either the liquid or convenient dust 

 forms to prevent or control effectively a most 

 diversified variety of parasitic diseases and fun- 

 goid growths borne by seed pieces, as well as 

 many of those which infest the soils, such as 

 " damping-ofl." 



Semesan is harmless to seed and plant life but 

 thoroughly sterilizes practically all kinds of seed 



pieces against the disease germs or fungous spores 

 that adhere to the seed coats or interior^. Sem- 

 esan-treated seeds, unhandicapped by diseases, are 

 thus stimulated to vigorous sprouting during the 

 critical period of their early growth and con- 

 sequently bear more and finer crops than can 

 untreated seeds. 



Semesan ip just as effective for flower and 

 nursery seeds or plants as for cleansing the dis- 

 eases from field, forage, 

 grain and vegetable seeds.
