For early Cauliflower, sow seed under glass in January or February and trans- 
plant to cold frames, 2 to 3 inches apart each way. Set in open ground early in the 
spring in rich, warm, moist soil. Water freely in dry weather, especially when plants 
are heading. For main crop, sow seed in June, set out your plants the latter part 
of July. After heads have begun to form, draw leaves over and tie to protect from 
the sun and keep them white. Cut while heads are compact and firm. 
Early Snowball. A splendid variety that is ready to cut in 58 days from the day 
the young plants are set out. The very compact, solid heads are of medium size 
and mature all about the same time. The creamy white curd is usually smooth 
and firm. Pkg. 25¢7) 14 (02.4 $3107 Vo022 $1-95)0z. $3.35

ditions the entire crop can be harvested at practically one cutting.

* Snowdrift or White Mountain. This kind makes a very large, deep, solid, pure 
white head. The heavy, upright growing leaves are very numerous and being close 
together force the smaller inner leaves to curl over and protect the head. Well 
adapted for use under a wide range of conditions and generally considered the 
most satisfactory strain for the main crop for fall harvest.

Early Purple. More delicately flavored than any of the white varieties. The large,

like Broccoli. Plants set out in early June will ripen heads before October.

“Good Vegetables,” says the Gardener’s Chronicle of March, 
1878, “are secured more frequently by a careful selection of 
seed than in any other way, and the high quality which they 
have attained is chiefly due to the great care of our enter- 
prising seed growers.’’ 
From Vick’s Illustrated Magazine, February, 1878 
“Mrs. M. M. Comstock of Ithaca, Michigan, grew last 
season an Early Paris Cauliflower that measured 3 feet 9 
inches around and 18 inches in diameter.’ 

We are growers and distributors of specially fine strains of 
seeds to commerc.al vegetable growers, men who must have the 
finest seeds that can be grown in order to’ succeed in’ their 
business. We put this same high quality seed in the smaller 
packets that are sent to the home gardener.

These pie berries grow big, strong plants that bear quantities of fruit the same 
season that you sow the seed. Some call them Sun Berries, others Wonder Berries. 
Down in Wayne County, N. Y., where we saw them first, they call them Seed 
Huckleberries, first because they grow and bear from seed the first year and 
Huckleberries for the reason that pies made from them rival the most delicious 
Huckleberry pies that you ever tasted. Package of 50 seeds 15c; 2 pkgs. 25c¢
