CAULIFLOWER 
Caulifiower is not difficult. to 
grow. If your garden produces 
good cabbage, it should successfully 
grow Cauliflower. It is one of the 
garden’s' most delectable luxuries. 
Culture. Requires rich soil and 
abundant moisture. The only sig- 
nificant difference in the culture of 
Cauliflower and that of cabbage is 
that with Cauliflower the heads 
must be protected from sunlight in 
order to insure the much desired 
white curd. This is most readily 
accomplished by gathering the leaves 
together loosely, as soon as_ the 
heads begin to form, and tying them 
at the top. One ounce will produce 
2000 strong plants: % pound suffi- 
cient for an acre. 

144 Early Snowball. 55 days trom 
plants. Our caulifiowér seed is grown 
for us by the foremost American and 
European specialists and for early ma- 
turing; we believe our strains are equal, 
if not superior, to any stock of Snowball 
being offered, regardless of price. The 
large heads are pure snow-white, solid, 
finely grained and very deep. It heads 
so evenly that the entire crop may be 
harvested within a short time after it 
begins to mature. The plants are quick- 
growing and vigorous, and the erect 
leaves are quite large and curl over the 
heads protecting them from the sun. 
The compact heads make a beautiful 
appearance on any market and always 
sell for the highest prices. Pkt. 25c;

68 45 days. Distinct from other Chards; 
highly prized because of its superior flavor, 
entirely without the somewhat bitter taste 
of ordinary Swiss Chard. You will relish 
it like a good variety of spinach. The dark, 
glossy green leaves are fairly smooth. The 
lighter green midribs are tender and edible, 
Cooked and served as ‘boiling greens’’ in 
the same way as spinach. It is very hardy 
and withstands severe summer heat: there- 
fore available when spinach cannot be 
grown. Many people who detest spinach 
find our green-leaved Swiss Chard a more 
palatable substitute. Pkt. 1Oc: oz. 20c;
