Cauliflower 
Cavoloflore, Coliflor, Blumenkohl) 
CULTURE—One ounce will produce 2,000 plants. Four 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 head¬ 
ing. 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 
quality, 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; 1G,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 con¬ 
trol use Pyrocide Dust (1-9 Mixture). Pyrocide Dust leaves no poisonous residue on vegetables. When heading tie the 
outside leaves loosely over the head to protect it from the sun. 
DANAMERrCA SUPER SNOW- 
BAIili—This excellent new. vari¬ 
ety has given wonderful re¬ 
sults in extensive trials the 
past two years. Is a little later 
than Super Snowball; it is of 
Danish origin, heads large 
snow white, and specially 
recommended for the fall crop.

EARLY AMERICAN BEAUTY SNOWBALL— 
This new variety is outstanding for earli¬ 
ness and ability to produce uniform fine 
large heads. It is the earliest cauliflower we have 
seen, producing a great proportion of the heads in 
one cutting. The heads are of the Snowball type, 
uniformly large and deep, with a somewhat rough 
but beautiful white and tight curd. The plant is 
rugged with an abundance of long, broad leaves 
which protect the head until it is quite large.

EARLY SNOWBALL HENDERSON’S—Undqubtedly 
the finest and most popular early variety. Heads 
very early, of medium size, firm, compact, solid and 
very white; plant compact in growth with few 
short, upright leaves. 
Postpaid (Pkt. 10c) (% Oz. 40c) (Oz. $1.25 (% lb. 
$4.50) (lb. $16.00). 
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 
vigoj-ous growth. The leaves curl over the heads 
so as to protect them from the sun. Recommended 
for second early and late crop planting.

SNOWDRIFT—Is a somewhat more vigorous type of 
the Snowball class and selected to produce a larger 
head than Snowball without losing in earliness. 
This new strain matures with great evenness. The 
pure white heads are remarkable for their great 
depth, weight and unexcelled white color. The curd 
is of fine texture and resistant in a high measure 
..to “riciness”, and “fuzziness”. We are sincere 
in believing that Snowdrift ranks as one of the 
very superior stocks of Cauliflower available any¬ 
where.

SUPER-SNOWBALL—A very excellent variety, bred 
for early heading and uniformity. Heads are com¬ 
pact, medium large, pure white in color. Plants 
are sturdy. Leaf growth sufficient to make tying 
easy. A popular variety among market gardeners 
and shippers.

SUPER SELECT SNOWBALL—This is an extra early 
variety that does equally well for late planting. 
It is an American introduction by one of Amer¬ 
ica’s foremost seed growers. Crop results the past 
two years have been very gratifying. Cauliflower 
growers should try this on a limited acreage and 
compare results with seed from other sources. 
Seed stocks are limited, so secure your seed supply 
early.

AVHITE MOUNTAIN—A very desirable sort for ship¬ 
ping. A strong growing variety of the snowball 
type, produces larger and deeper heads and with no 
unusual growing hindrances will make very ample 
foliage with overlapping leaves over the head as a 
protection to the snow white heads in its forming. 
It is short stemmed and is not as “leggy” as many 
other types, matures with great uniformity and 
when tied comes on very rapidly.

AVHITE WONDERi—An improved strain developed 
and bred for the critical Market Gardeners’ Trade. 
We have received reports stating that it is 10 days 
earlier than Snowball. Exceptionally even, good 
sized, early. The heads are very solid and finely 
grained, and of a pure snowy-white which does not 
turn yellow even when exposed to bright sunlight. 
They are specially selected for keeping this com¬ 
pact solid curd so that they do not grow “ricy”, or 
“fuzzy”.
