Culture—For the earliest crop sow seed in April, 
as soon as the soil is in g00d workable condition. 
Later plantings can be made in May and June. 
The soil should not be heavily fertilized, especial- 
ly with manure. Cover the seed about 12 inch 
deep, spacing the rows 12 to 16 inches apart.

closer than 3 inches. One ounce should sow a

Cauliflower 
In Cauliflower seed, the best is by far the cheap- 
est in the long run and we offer you only the best 
that our growers can produce. We could have 
Cauliflower seed grown for us at half the prices 
but you would not get half as good results. 
Culture—Cauliflower is grown much the same 
way as early Cabbage, the seeds started in hot- 
beds or boxes in February or early March. An 
extra transplanting into other boxes or cold 
frames before setting outdoors is beneficial. In 
these set 2 inches apart each way. When the heads 
begin to form gather the outer leaves and tie 
together to protect from the hot sun. One ounce 
will produce 2000 plants, 5 ounces an acre. 
3651 EARLY SNOWBALL, “SUPER” STRAIN. 
Earliest and best for the home gardener who has 
rich, moist soil, for market and for the greenhouse 
grower. Plants compact, close growing outer 
leaves, heads solid, medium large and snowy- 
white. Pkt. 15e; 4% oz. 50c; 4 oz. $1.75; 
3652 DRY WEATHER or DANISH GIANT. 
Valuable strain, forming good heads on dry soil 
and during stretches of dry weather, when other 
varieties fail. Head beautiful, large, snow-white 
and protected by large leaves making it easier to 
‘whiten’ than Snowball. Only a trifle later than 
Snowball, perhaps not quite as good for green- 
house growing, but a wonder for the open ground. 
Pkt. 12c; % oz. 40c; 4 oz. $1.35.

Root Crops! 
Beets, carrots, onions and many others are very 
scarce and prices high this year because no seed 
is available from Europe and American producers 
had the lightest seed yields in many years. 
Order early, for although our present stocks are 
well balanced now, no additional seed can be 
obtained from our producers until the fall of 1942.
