CAULIFLOWER 
Cauliflower delights in a rich, moist soil and in dry seasons should be abundantly 
watered, especially when heading. Sow the seed early in the hotbed and transplant 2 to 
3 inches apart in boxes or in another hotbed until such time as they are safe to be 
planted in the open ground, which in this latitude is usually the first of April. 
EARLY SNOWBALL —Our strain is as fine as can be had at any price. It is 
not only the earliest to head, but a remarkably sure header, making large, 
solid, perfect, pure white heads of the finest quality. Recommended for late 
summer and fall crop. Postpaid, pkt. 10c; V4 oz. 30c; oz. $1.00; V4 lb. $3.75. 
DRY WEATHER —This is a fine, large, heavy variety that 
matures about a week later than Early Snowball. It is 
especially adapted for growing in dry locations on account 
of its large leaves, which furnish greater protection to the 
heads. Postpaid, pkt. 10c; V4 oz. 30c; oz. $1.00; V4 lb. $3.75. 
CELERY 
Seed should be sown in April in a hotbed or boxes, filled with 
clean, mellow loam. Sow broadcast or in rows and cover with 
about one-eighth inch of fine soil or sand, pressing it down firmly.

leaf transplant into another bed or boxes, or thin out to 2 to 3 
inches apart. Plant into the open ground the last of July.
