CAULIFLOWER. 



A splendid money crop where the soil is rich and the climate cool and damp. 



Culture.— Same as cabbage. Sometimes the seed is sowed in September, and the young 

 plants wintered over, to save time in spring. Pin or tie the leaves together after the head 

 or flower has begun to form. This will preserve the snowy whiteness. An ounce of seed 

 will produce about 8,500 plants if carefully managed. 



MACLE'S PRIZE EARLIEST.— For many 

 years I have challenged the world to produce a 

 finer, handsomer or earlier cauliflower than my 

 Prize Earliest. It Is earlier than the famous 

 Snowball and every other variety. Whether for 

 forcing under glass or growing in the open 

 ground, and whether planted early or late, it is 

 the surest header of all. It is very dwarf and 

 compact in habit of growth, like the Snowball, 

 and can be planted as close as 18 inches each 

 way for forcing, or where space is limited. 

 Maule's Prize Earliest is particularly desirable 

 for forcing under glass, while in my open air 

 1 rials every plant lias produced a head, excel- 

 ling all other varieties in earliness, size and 

 quality. It Is unquestionably the best of all. 

 Pkt.,25cts.; %oz., 81.00; oz.,$a00; ^lb., 810.00. 



AUTUMN GIANT This is a large variety, 



with fine, well-proportioned heads. The heads 

 are so well protected by t he foliage as to remain 

 a long time lit for use. Adapted to late culture. 

 Packet, 6 cents; ounce, 50 cents; % pound, $1.75° 



EARLY SNOWBALL.— One of the best and 

 most popular standard sorts. It belongs to the 

 same group of cauliflowers as Maule's Prize 

 Earliest and stands next to it in points of earli- 

 ness and excellence. Produces heads 9 inches 

 across in this latitude by June 10th; and under 

 good treatment every plant will produce a head. 

 Packet, 20 cents; Y % ounce, 75 cents; ounce, $2.50. 



EARLIEST DWARF ERFURT This is 



really a first-class cauliflower, and next to my 

 Prize Earliest and Snowball is the best and 

 surest to head. It would be a leader, except for 

 the two especially fine types above mentioned. 

 As it is, it linds special "favor In some sections. 

 Packet, 15 cents; % ounce, 05 cents; ounce, $2.50. 



EXTRA EARLY PARIS Very early, pro- 

 ducing a good, white head. The head large, solid 

 and compact. This cauliflower is frequently 

 used for forcing. Pkt., 5c; oz., 00c; !4 lb., $2.25.
