 seed as Cauliflower, in which the least variance from the true sti 

 the grower, that a seed house builds up its reputation. We kno' 

 of anything that can be produced. In our trial ground tests we 

 of cauliflower offered on the market and, while we have found 

 found a superior to Vaughan's Snowball. We pay more for our 

 large seed house in the United States just so that we can have 



ise. It is on such particular 

 ain results in great injury to

 lave tried nearly every strain 

 a few eo.uals, we have never 

 seed than probably does any 

 perfection as it is 



possible for man to grow it. High bred Cabbage and Cauliflower does not germinate as wel 

 less carefully bred strains. Nevertheless we have taken such pains to reclean and re-sift 

 seeds after receiving them from the grower that our seed is always up to standard of gro'

 type of Cauliflower 

 comes from Amager

 in quality. It is leady for use nearly as early, producing dwarfer and much larger 

 bunches of broad, heavy stalks, blanching to a deep golden yellow. The handsome color, 

 jcrispness. tenderness, freedom from stringiness and nutty flavor of this variety make it
