CARROTS — (Continued) 
Red Cored Chantenay 
A distinct improvement over the 
well known Chantenay. Roots 54% 
to 6 inches long and 24% inches 
thick at the shoulder, tapered, 
stumprooted. Flesh reddish orange, 
fine grained, tender and delicious 
flavor. Roots are evenly stumped, 
free from large eyes and side root- 
lets. 















I am thanking you for your 
courtesy. I have used your seeds 
for many years and have never 
had a crop failure yet. 
—Ernest F. Kilbourne, Wassaic, 
Ne Ys 
The seeds were fine, we certain- 
ly have made good from them. 
We bought some of our seeds 
from another place and they are 
not as good as the seeds from 
your company.

RED CORED CHANTENAY CARROT 
CAULIFLOWER 
A packet will produce about 200 plants; an ounce about 4000 plants. 
CULTURE. For spring or early summer crop sow in March or early in April in hotbed and trans- 
plant to cold frame when sufficiently large, and to the open ground as soon as danger of hard freezing 
is over. The plants will endure a light frost. The soil for cauliflower should be like that for cabbage 
but it is better if made richer than is ordinarily used for that crop. For late crop sow at the same 
time as for late cabbage. Cauliflower heads must be protected from sunlight to obtain the desirable 
white curd. This is accomplished by gathering the tops of the leaves together loosely as soon as the 
heads begin to form. In shutting off the light, it is important not to cramp the heads. 
EARLY SNOWBALL, WOPR@5. 
Extremely early and the most popular variety for greenhouse forcing and 
early markets. Excellent also for main crop if planted late. Heads snow 
white, deep, smooth and compact. The standard of excellence in caulifiower. 
EARLY SNOWBALL NO. 25 (See Photo Page 15) 
Much more uniform than our original strain of Early Snowball and earlier. 
Heads are large, very deep, firm and pure white. Plants are large, with ample 
foliage. Exceptionally fine quality. 
SUPERBA 
A larger, earlier and better Cauliflower of the Snowball type. It heads 
so evenly that the entire crop can be harvested before ordinary varieties 
are ready. It excels all Snowball and Erfurt Cauliflower for vigor and 
freedom from disease and produces first grade No. 1 heads even under 
adverse growing conditions when most other varieties cut largely second 
grade heads. For the reason that the crop heads up practically all at one 
time, it should not be used for large main crop plantings unless planted in 
succession. Produces beautiful, round, pure white heads with smooth, solid 
curds.
