 (BU'Mr N-Kul I ). Our S I 'his sea- 

 son has been more carefully selected than 

 ever, and we go to th»- grower knowing 

 that we give them seed that has been 

 grown for us by the best grower in Eu- 

 rope. We had an inspector in the fields 

 this season, and he reports that of all 

 crops in Europe, this crop was the most 



carefully and intelligently grown of all crops that he saw. It grows dwarf, with large, white heads and very early. Our 

 sales have increased each year in the sale of Cauliflower, and we have spared no expense in perfecting this fine strain. Wo 

 feel sure that if you once try this seed you will have no other, because it is the best. As a profitable crop there are 

 few that equal it, and any one who gets our seed should make a success and money. Good Cauliflowers always sell, and 

 sell readily. Packets, 10c, 25c and 50c; ] _> ounce, $1.00; ounce, $2.00. 



Twentieth Century Cauliflower 



THK Mi I ESS ( U'LIFLOWER, We have found a demand for a Cauliflower 

 that would make a head when the seed was planted late after the early sorts. The 

 Success is that one. We feel that in the introduction of this Cauliflower we have 

 given our trade success in growing Cauliflower. Price: Packets, 10c, 25c and 50c; 

 ounce, $1.50; pound, $20.00. 



Two of the Officials of the Department of Agriculture told us that our Twen- 

 tieth Century ( auliilower gave finer heads and produced more perfect heads than any 

 they have tried. We consider this the best recommendation possible for any one to 

 have. Testimony that is unbiased by likes and dislikes. Why not get the best?
