THE O & M SEED CO 
CAULIFLOWER 
Snowball 
CultLire—Sow seed in hot bed or in boxes 6 weeks before time to plant 
out. Transplant early in spring in rows 30 inches apart and 15 inches 
in the row. Cultivate often to be kept growing continuously. 1 ounce 
to 2000 plants. 
Extra Early Snowball —The earliest maturing strain of Snowball Cauli¬ 
flower. An excellent forcing variety. Heads of medium size, solid and 
very white, making an attractive appearance. 
Early Dwarf Erfurt —It is early and a sure header. It is not as early as 
Snowball but will mature in plenty of time for market use. This is one 
of the most widely planted varieties of Cauliflower. 
Omco Snowball —This selection of Snowball Cauliflower is an 
exceptionally good variety for the Market Gardener. Its earli¬ 
ness combined with the beautiful solid white head gives a cer¬ 
tain appeal to the public that is almost irresistible. 
CARROTS 
Culture—A sandy, rich loam is the better soil for carrots. Sow in rows 20 
inches apart, thin to 5 inches in the row. Cover 1 inch. V4 ounce to 
.100 ft. rows. 1 to 3 lbs. per acre. 
Danver’s Half Long —The best known second early variety. Roots 6 to 8 
inches long, tapering to a blunt point; flesh deep orange, tender and good 
quality. 
Chantenay —This is a half long, good medium early variety, with half 
long stump root. Roots about 6 inches long, very thick, smooth and of 
a deep orange red color. 
Oxheart —Roots about 5 inches long, very stout and thick, ending in an 
abrupt small top root. Small top and easily harvested. Color bright 
orange. 
Coreless —It is an excellent variety for forcing, as well as for home and 
market use. Flesh reddish orange, very small tops. Crisp and tender 
and practically coreless. 
Improved Long Orange —An excellent intermediate variety. Roots 12 
inches long about 3 inches broad at the crown, tapering regularly to a 
point. Deep orange color. 
Nantes —Roots 7 to 8 inches long, with blunt ends, smooth and of bright 
orange color. Flesh red, sweet and mild, almost coreless. 
White Belgian (Stock) —An excellent variety for feeding stock, espe¬ 
cially when fed with grain and dry forage. Has a fine tonic effect. 
Collards 
Culture—Similar to cabbage except that the plants do not 
have to be transplanted. 
Georgia or Southern —This is a favorite in the South and does 
not produce a head. It has the flavor of cabbage and believe 
that if it was better known in the North there would be more 
used.
