CAULIFLOWER 
— Cauliflower will 
not head up good in 
hot, dry weather, 
hence the sowing 
should be so regu¬ 
lated as to bring it 
to maturity either 
before the hot sum¬ 
mer weather sets in 
or not until the 
cooler weather of 
the fall. After the 
heads begin to 
form draw the 
leaves over and pin 
or tie them togeth¬ 
er to protect the 
heads from the sun 
and keep them 
white.

uable for both early

white compact heads. It is truly a first-class
