One Ounce Will Sow 100 Feet 
of Drill 
Friends, here is a little 
Health Proverb I know most 
of you will enjoy, “Eat 18 
Carrot Soup.” Last year one 
of my good friends and cus¬ 
tomers wrote me telling how 
fine her new Coreless Carrots 
were, stating that her little 
daughter ate them just like 
sticks of candy. All I can add 
is that I am sure that they 
are better for her than any 
candy she can buy. 
Culture: Carrots like rich, 
mellow, deep-spaded soil. If 
manure is added to the soil, 
be sure it is done the previous 
season. Sow early sorts in 
March or April, 1 inch deep 
in rows 14 Inches apart. Sow 
the main crop in May or be¬ 
ginning of June. In fact, any 
time up until the first of 
August.

CAULIFLOWER 
Rich in Vitamins A, B, and C 
An ounce will produce about 3,000 plants. 
Culture: Cauliflower likes a rich, well- 
drained sandy soil with plenty of mois¬ 
ture. Plant the seed in a hotbed or win¬ 
dow box, just like you do cabbage for 
early planting, then set them out and 
care for just like you do cabbage. They 
are just as easily grown. When the 
heads start to form, tie the outer leaves 
together over the top. Grow either as 
a spring crop as suggested above, or sow 
the seed in May and transplant to the 
field later for a fall crop.

and surest heading cauliflower grown.

agus. A delicious vegetable that is 
gaining favor. Pkt., 5c; % oz., 25c;
