I cannot resist writing you regarding your 
seeds. _ They certainly are true to name and 
every item was good. I canned an enormous 
amount of string beans. My carrots, parsnips, rutabagas and squash 
were excellent. We had plenty of musk melons also, and I took first 
prise on Girasol at the Harvest Festival. They liked the Lazy Man’s 
spud very much.

outdoors as soon as weather permits, 2 to 3 feet apart each 
way. The soil should be very rich, containing plenty 01 
166. SUPER SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER-

humus matter and moisture. While the heads are forming, water 
freely, and apply liquid manure or light dressing of nitrate of soda 
and potash. When the heads have formed and are hard, 
tie up the outer leaves to blanch the heads. Cauliflower 
needs cool, rather damp weather and will not form good 
heads in a dry, hot season or in dry sections. 
161. SELF PROTECTING DANISH PERFEC¬ 
TION— (58 days.) A main crop sort of Early Snowball 
type with somewhat larger heads, and several days later in 
maturing. However the heads are better protected by large 
leaves, which does away to a certain extent with the neces¬ 
sity of tying up the leaves to blanch the 
heads. Head: 7 to 8 inches thick, weighs 
2 (4 lbs., compact, snow white and very at¬ 
tractive. Pkt. 15c, Vi oz. 60c, V 2 oz. $1.00,

than Early Snowball and of larger

tects the heads, which are less liable 
to blight in hot weather. Dry 
Weather requires less moisture than 
other sorts, yet quality is superb. 
Head: 6 to 8 inches thick, weighs 
2 lbs., hard, creamy white and of 
delicious flavor. Pkt. 15c, Vi oz. 
60c, 1/2 oz. $1.00, oz. $1.75, y 4 lb.

BROCCOLI 
80. ITALIAN GREEN SPROUT¬ 
ING CALABRESE - Matures: in 55 
to 65 days from setting plants to first 
cutting. This is a choice new strain of 
this Italian vegetable which is becoming 
very popular on the American market. A 
tall branching plant forms a central head 
of bluish green flower buds resembling a 
loose head of cauliflower. After the 
main head is removed, side branches con¬ 
tinue to develop throughout the season, 
and often form small heads, which with 
the stems are cut and served in the 
same way as asparagus. It is a highly 
desirable and delicious vegetable. Sow 
outdoors in May—ready to harvest in 
August. Pkt. 10c, Vz OZ. 35c, oz. 60c, 
Vi lb. $1.75, prepaid.
