Cauliflower 
(Cavoloflore, Coliflor, Blumenkohl) 
CULTURE—One ounce will produce 2,000 plants. 4 to 6 ounces of seed are required to produce enough plants to 
set an acre. Cauliflower delights in a rich moist soil and in dry seasons should be abundantly watered, especially 
when heading. Early cauliflower is difficult to grow and is not of the best quality as the plants mature when the 
weather is hot. When the plants are set out about the first of July there should be no difficulty in getting fine large 
heads of first class qualtiy, as these plants will mature when the weather is cool. For early crops sow the seed in 
the hot beds in January or February and transplant when weather permits. For late crop sow the seed in cold 
frames or in the open ground in April or May. Set only young, stocky plants that have not been stunted. 10,000 plants 
will plant an acre. Cauliflower is a rank grower and requires more room than cabbage. Care must be taken that the 
plants do not become checked in growth as that will cause them to head prematurely. Cultivation for cauliflower is 
the same as for cabbage and for Aphis and Worm control the same insecticides are used. When heading tie the outside 
leaves loosely over the head to protect it from the sun. 
DANISH PERFECTION —This strain is of Danish 
origin, is very hardy with an abundance of leaves 
which protect the large, solid, snow white head 
from the sun. It is quick maturing, heads are 
pure white, solid and firm. May be used for 
early planting but is especially recommended for 
the late fall crop. 
EARLY DWARF ERFURT (T. M. No. 3)—An early 
market variety, very productive, with large, white, 
compact heads of good quality. Some prefer it 
to Early Snowball, as it is remarkable for its 
reliability in heading. 
EXTRA EARLY SNOWBALL— This type seems espe¬ 
cially adapted to our climate and soil. Suitable 
for either early or late planting. Under favor¬ 
able conditions nearly every plant will make a 
fine solid head of good size. 
HENDERSON’S SNOWBALL— We have an extra se¬ 
lected strain of this popular type of cauliflower 
which we can highly recommend to our market 
gardeners, and is especially well adapted for 
planting in our mountain districts. 
PRIZEWINNER SNOWBALL (Suhr’s) —An early 
variety of the true Snowball type, which when 
planted for late or maip crop produces large solid 
snow white heads of finest quality. 
SNOWBALL SPECIAL STRAIN No. 5—This is a very 
fine improved strain of the true Snowball type. 
The heads are large, solid, snow white and with 
no protruding leaves when well grown under 
favorable conditions. The plants make a strong 
vigorous growth. The leaves curl over the heads 
so as to protect them from the sun. Recommended 
for second early and late crop planting. 
For Prices on Cauliflower See Page 8 
SNOWBALL SPECIAL STRAIN No. 4 — Strain No. 4 
matures a week to ten days earlier than Strain 
No. 5. It is of the self-protecting type. Heads 
very uniform so the crop can be cut practically all 
at the same time. Plants vigorous, heads are large, 
compact and quite uniform in size.
