CABBAGE (Continued) 
SAVOY CABBAGE, PERFECTION DRUMHEAD. (105 days.) 
Savoy cabbage is commonly called “curly-leaf” or “curly” 
cabbage. It has a distinct flavor which is favored by many 
people. The plant is of large growth. The large, rich, dark 
green leaves are uniformly wrinkled or savoyed and curled. 
The heads are medium in size, hard, and stand a long time 
without bursting. This is the best variety of the savoy type 
for Florida.

KILGORE’S RED ACRE. (New) (92 days.) This new variety 
fills a long felt need in being the only red cabbage that ma- 
tures very early, only a few days later than Green Copen- 
hagen Market. The plant is very small, compact and makes a 
small, round, hard, deep red colored head. Very uniform as 
to type and color. Especially desirable for muck land pro- 
duction in Florida. 
Sold Out until early Fall, 1942. 
KILGORE’S IMPROVED RED DANISH. (112 days.) This Im- 
proved strain of Red Danish is the most highly bred, heavy 
yielding, and uniform strain yet developed. The plants are 
vigorous, but compact growth, every plant producing a hard, 
heavy head, with excellent dark red color throughout, free 
from bursting, and an ideal type for shipment. No more uni- 
form, true to type, heavy yielding variety of red cabbage can 
be secured anywhere. 
Sold Out until early Fall, 1942 
CHINESE CABBAGE 
Plant 1 pound per acre. 
Curtvre. This is distinctly a cool-weather plant and should 
not be planted for a spring or summer crop, because it quick- 
ly bolts to seed in hot weather. It should be planted only for 
a late fall and winter crop. Seeds should be planted in 24% 
to 3 ft. rows where the crop is to mature, thinning out as 
the plants develop to stand twelve to fifteen inches in the 
row. Chinese Cabbage may be used in any raw salad and 
for plate decoration. sIt may also be boiled like ordinary 
cabbage. It is a very tender, healthful vegetable and very 
nutritious and digestible. 
KILGORE’S IMPROVED PEKIN CELERY CABBAGE. (80 
days.) This strain of Chinese Cabbage surpasses all other 
varieties of Chinese Cabbage. It is sure heading, maturing 
into long, slender, very firm, well blanched, crisp, tender and 
sweet heads, readily salable in any market. The heads become 
18 to 20 inches tall, 314 to 4 inches thick, tapered near the tip. 
Hardy and of easy culture, planted direct in the field. Does 
best as a fall and winter crop. In warm weather in spring it 
tends to bolt to seed before heading properly. A good shipper 
and an excellent keeper.

Kilgore’s Improved Pekin Celery Cabbage 
CAULIFLOWER 
Sow 4 ounces in seed-bed to plant an acre 
Seed supply of all varieties is extremely limited. 

Kilgore’s Snowdrift Cauliflower 
No crop is affected more in its behavior by weather and soil 
conditions than is cauliflower. Because of the frequent spells 
of hot weather and high humidity during the winter months 
in Florida which conditions are not conducive for good cauli- 
flower production, it has been difficult to consistently produce 
this crop to perfection with ordinary varieties and strains of 
cauliflower seed. We have been working for several years in 
an endeavor to secure strains of cauliflower which will do well 
under Florida climatic and soil conditions. As a result of 
numerous tests and trial plantings, we have found and are 
now offering strains which are particularly well suited to the 
high temperature and humidity conditions of Florida. 
Cutture. We recommend starting plants in well prepared 
seed-beds where they can be given proper care and attention. 
Conditions should be provided for the continuous rapid 
growth of cauliflower seedlings and plants. A cauliflower 
plant which has once been checked or stunted in growth will 
never produce a large, well-formed head. Plant from Septem- 
ber to January and cultivate the same as cabbage. Cauli- 
flower needs a very rich soil and plenty of moisture. Just 
as soon as the head develops to the size of a walnut, it is 
very important to draw the outer leaves over the head and 
tie with soft cord to produce attractive, pure white, solid 
heads. 
SNOWDRIFT. (105 days.) This is one of the surest head- 
ers known, and is especially well adapted to withstand the 
hot, humid climatic conditions prevalent in Florida. The 
vigorous plants grow larger and taller than Snowball, are 
more compact and upright in growth, with long, tall, rather 
narrow, elliptical shape, erect growing, dark green leaves, 
which protect the head or curd in its early growth. The 
large, snow-white, attractive heads are very deep, heavy, 
and firm or solid, even under relatively hot, humid growing 
conditions, making this an ideal variety for early spring 
production in Florida. Very free of leafy and ricy heads. 
This variety should satisfy the most critical growers. A most 
desirable type for long distance shipment. Seed supply 
exceedingly limited.

1 Ib. $60.00. 
KILGORE’S EARLY SUPER SNOWBALL. (100 days.) This 
is a very early maturing strain of the Snowball type, which 
because of the curled formation of the leaves over the head 
protects it from the sun and from freezing. The dwarf. com- 
pact plants are strong, vigorous, with many short, large, 
round, broad, heavy, spreading, light green leaves, and a 
short, stout stem. The heads are broad, large, smooth, solid, 
pure white in color, and exceedingly uniform; under proper 
growing conditions, producing over 90% grade one heads. 
Highly recommended as a winter crop, to mature in cold 
weather. 
Pkt. 45c; V2 oz. $3.00; oz. $5.00; 1% Ib. $15.00, 
1 Ib. $50.00. 
KILGORE’S EARLY HENDERSON’S SNOWBALL. (98 days.) 
This is the regular low heading type of Snowball, which un- 
der good growing conditions is a dependable header, starting 
to head early and uniformly. Heads are medium large, com- 
pact, solid, pure white and of good quality. 
Pkt. 40c; 2 oz. $2.75; oz. $4.50; 14 Ib. $13.50; 
1 Ib. $45.00.
