CAULIFLOWER. 
Culture. — Any soil that will grow cabbage will grow cauliflower as 
their requirements are almost similar; but as the product is much more 
valuable, extra manuring and preparation of the soil will be well repaid. 
Ihe seeds may be sown in September, and wintered over in 
the same manner as prescribed for early cabbage. Where this is not 
practicable it may be had just as well by sowing the seeds in the hot-bed 
in January or tebruary, and transplanting the plants at two or three 
inches apart in boxes or in the soil of another hot bed until such time as 
they are safe to be planted in tlie open ground, which in this latitude is 
nsuallv from the loth of March to the 10th of April If properly bard- 
ene.- oc aiey are seldom injured by pianung oui too eariy.
