wonderful strain of Cauliflower is 
the particular variety that the Mar¬ 
ket Gardeners have wanted for some time. Its extreme

keting. Before the foliage is full grown and the heads 
have begun to appear the inside leaves begin to curl and 
twist, forming a protection. The outside.foliage is strong 
and vigorous. This strain heads up evenly throughout 
the field, which no other Cauliflower is known to do.

It Costs Less and Pays Best to Trade with Specialists 
This is the age of specialists. The day of the “Jack of all 
Trades” is gone. In other words, today you must know your 
business thoroughly or thinking people will have no confi¬ 
dence in you. 
If you sought the advice or counsel of a doctor or surgeon 
you wouldn’t look for one in a department store. The same 
is true with a mechanic, carpenter or any highly skilled 
artisan. 
We don’t know much, if anything, about calico, prunes, 
medicines, or machinery—but we do feel that after more 
than a half century specializing in growing and breeding 
pure bred seeds, plants, bulbs, shrubs and nursery items— 
we are better qualified to serve you intelligently on your 
garden, lawn, farm and fruit requirements than those who 
deal in these commodities as a side line.
