Our Gilt Edge (No. 85) 
We introduced “Gilt Edge” 
Cauliflower in the South in 189.3. 
Since that time we have watched 
all new introductions closely, 
and we have not found in the 
last 21 years a variety that 
comes anywhere near being its 
equal, for either fall or spring 
planting. 
“Gilt Edge” is rightly named. 
It is “Gilt Edge” in every re¬ 
spect. It is the largest, most 
perfect and surest header of all 
the early varieties, and in qual¬ 
ity it is unexcelled. One speci¬ 
men was sent to our store by a 
gardener which, when the leaves 
were trimmed off. weighed 7 lbs. 
and 8 oz., the largest head of 
early Cauliflower we have ever 
seen in the South. 
In general appearance. Gilt 
Edge is like the Snowball, but 
is much larger, a sure header 
and stands much longer with¬ 
out decay than any other. Caul¬ 
iflower should be more gener¬ 
ally grown in the South than it 
is, and there is no variety equal 
to Gilt Edge where a sure crop 
of the finest quality is wanted. 
Packet, 20e; % ounce, 75c; Yz 
ounce, $1.25; ounce, $2.25; % 
pound, $8.00; pound, $30.00. 
Early Snowball (No. 86)

Heads medium size. Fine for family 
garden. Packet, 10c; Yz ounce, 30c; ounce, 
50c; Yk pound, $2.00; pound, $7.00. 
Le Normand’s (No. 88), Late Algiers

each, packet, 10 cents; Yz ounce, 30 cents; 
ounce, 50 cents; Yk pound, $1.75. 
A great many peo¬ 
ple look upon the 
lowly collard, or “Georgia Cabbage,” as 
some jokingly refer to it, as something 
not worth while growing. Now there are 
thousands of collard patches scattered 
over the South, and most Southern peo¬ 
ple like them. The collard is an old-time 
favorite, adapted to all parts of the 
South, and as a producer of “greens” for 
boiling in winter and spring it has no 
equal. It will pay you to have a collard 
patch just to give your cows an occa¬ 
sional taste of “green stuff.” Sow any 
time up to September 15th.
