March 1, 1946 Rev. Ronald Rowat, 
44 Washington Street, Malone, N. Y. 

Snowdrift Cauliflower grows upright with plenty of leaves to pro- 
tect the head and make tying easy. 1947 should be the year to 
grow cauliflower as high prices usually follow a year of extremely 
cheap cauliflower.

deep, closely packed and pure white. This variety
