We could quote thousands of letters similar to the following: 



"I may say that your Snowball Cauliflower came up in five days, 98 per cent, 

 germinating." GEO. M. DICKSON, Leominster, Mass. 



"Last season I bought two ounces of Snowball Cauliflower at your store, and grew 

 over ISO barrels of fine Cauliflower." WALTER KNOPP, Ramsay, N. J. 



"My patch of Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower averaged over 5 lbs., the largest 

 beine something over 13 inches in diameter." J. E. THREFT, Bristow, Okla. 



"I have had splendid results from your Snowball Cauliflower seed." 



Mrs. H. C. WHELLAMS, Winnipeg, Can. 



" I mail you a photograph of the case of Cauliflower which won the highest award — ■ 

 a silver medal — at the St. Louis Exposition. 1 grew it from your Snowball seed. 

 For reliability of heading, fine texture, and whiteness of curd, I have never grown any 

 Cauliflower that equals it." R. E. HISTED, South Haven, Conn. 



"I enclose a photo of a head of Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower which weighed 

 4 pounds. I have tried five varieties of Cauliflower and find none that compares 

 with yours. The heads are so much whiter, harder, and more perfect inform than 

 others. Besides, it has not got a granulated surface like many others, and is much 

 earlier in maturing." Dr. E. A. LEE, Jennings, La.

Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower 



Beyond all question, Henderson's Snowball is the one perfect 

 Cauliflower for the American gardener. There is none to equal it 

 in value for forcing under glass for a winter crop, for which it is 

 especially adapted by reason of its compact, upright habit, quick 

 growth, and sure-heading quality. 



Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower, grown from seed sown under 

 glass in February and transplanted after frost, will produce perfect 

 heads of snowy whiteness in the open ground by June 1st. 



In most sections of the United States, the best and most 

 satisfactory crop is grown from seed sown outdoors about May 20th 

 and transplanted during July, so that the plants make their best 

 growth during the cooler months. For this crop, Henderson's 

 Snowball is unsurpassed. 



For all purposes and at all seasons, it has become indispensable. 

 Critical market growers use it in ever-increasing quantities, while 

 the amateur and private gardener find it equally valuable at all 

 seasons, owing to its reliability in heading, its strong, vigorous 

 habit, and the whiteness of its perfectly-formed flowers. 



It is without doubt, the ideal Cauliflower, perfect in size, in 

 reliability, in color, and in quality. (See cut.) Price, 25c: pkt., 

 $4.00 oz., $12.50 H lb., $45.00 lb. 



Although Cauliflower may be grown as easily as Cabbage, many, through lack 

 of knowledge of some essentials, are liable to failure. We urge those who are 

 not familiar with its cultivation to read carefully the pamphlet we have prepared 

 on Cabbage and Cauliflower growing, wherein we have tried to point the way 

 to success. We may say here briefly, that success depends on growing a large 

 plant, and that as Cauliflower is essentially a cool weather plant, this cannot be 

 done in the hot summer months; therefore, the earliest outdoor crop must be 

 grown from seed sown under glass in February, so that the crop will mature by 

 June 1st; for fall use, it should be sown late in May, so that the best development 

 may be made during the cooler weather of September and October.
