SEED GROWERS 19 

Heads produced from our American grown crops of cauliflower seed 
CAULIFLOWER. 
Cauliflower, because of its special requirements as to soil and climate, has hereto- 
fore been considered a seed crop which only some of the European countries could 
produce. Several years ago we started on a program of experimentation and develop- 
ment looking forward to the production of Cauliflower seed in this country, and we 
now offer seed of our own production which has proved as satisfactory in every respect 
as that formerly imported. 
We believe that both the early maturing and main crop strains we offer will be 
found well adapted for the production of Cauliflower in the various sections of this 
country and we offer them to our customers with the fullest confidence that they will 
give excellent satisfaction. 
We have indicated the number of days commonly required to preduce heads, from 
the date the young plants are set in the field. Usually it is 30 to 35 days from the time 
seed is sown until the young plants are ready for the open field.
