OLDS’ CAULIFLOWER 
Olds Cauliflower Seed is grown in Denmark and is the best that Can he produced. 
Each packet contains enough seed to produce 200 plants; from 3 to 4 ounces of seed 
will furnish plants enough for one acre. Order by number. Leaflet on culture of 
cauliflower, free on request. The figures after the name shows time required to 
produce heads after setting plants. 
91. ★SUPER SNOWBALL. (48 
days.) A real marvel, both in earliness 
and in uniformity of heading. It will head 
from 2 to 3 weeks sooner than the earliest 
strains of cauliflower and very uniformly 
throughout the field. The heads are large, 
deep and solid and have a pure white color. 
Foliage strong and vigorous, forming a 
good protection. The crop can be complete¬ 
ly harvested 4 months from the time the 
seed is sown. In our experience we have 
not found an early cauliflower that can 
compare with this variety. Pkt., 20c; i/ 4 
oz., 70c; Va oz., $1.35; oz., $2.50; Vi lb., 
$9.10, postpaid.

93. ★DRY WEATHER. (68 days.) 
The best all-purpose cauliflower for every 
kind of soil. It produces large, solid, pure 
Super Snowball. white heads. Matures about a week later 
than Improved Early Snowball. We recommend this variety very strongly where suc¬ 
cess against crop failure in hot, dry weather is desired. It grows large heads, too, 
larger than Snowball and is a sure header. Pkt., 15c; Vi oz., 65c; Va oz., $1.20; 
oz., $2.00; Vi lb., $6.65, postpaid. 
90. ★IMPROVED EARLY SNOWBALL. (60 days.) One of the most 
popular early varieties either for the home or market garden. The medium sized, snow- 
white heads (six to ten inches in diameter) are firm, compact and solid, with few 
short upright leaves. Our seed is grown in Denmark and equal to any strain of 
Snowball anywhere. Pkt., 15c; Vi oz., 65c; Va oz., $1.20; oz., $2.00; Vi lb-, $6.60,
