SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER—“A SURE HEADER” 
CAULIFLOWER 
Culture—Same as Cabbage. They require rich, welbdrained soil and plenty of water. 
For an early Spring crop, start seed indoors and set out in the open ground about April 15th. 
For a Fall crop sow seed June 1st and transplant about July 15th. After the head reaches a 
diameter of four inches, gather the leaves together and tie them at the top to blanch heads and 
prevent injury from sun and frost. Set out the plants 15 to 18 inches apart in 3'foot rows. 
One ounce will produce 1500 plants.

BUIST’S SELECTED EARLY SNOWBALL 
The Snowball is a famous variety through' 
out the world, and Buist’s is regarded as one 
of the finest strains; it is, without question, 
the best for either market or private growing; 
there is no variety earlier, and none that heads 
with greater certainty; the heads are large and 
beautifully formed and of the most delicate 
flavor, and averaging 9 to 10 inches in 
diameter, of very close and compact growth, 
with very short outer leaves, enabling one'

than any other variety; it eclipses them all for 
either forcing or cold'frame culture. Pkt., 15c;
