CAULIFLOWER 
One ounce of seed produces about 3,000 plants. 
For many years cauliflower has been es- 
teemed as one of the most delicious of vege- 
tables but until recently it was erroneously 
regarded as very difficult to grow. It is known 
now that the same methods which produce 
good cabbage will yield cauliflower success- 
fully. The only significant difference in cul- 
ture is that the heads of cauliflower must be 
protected from sunlight in order to assure a 
white curd which is so desirable. This is 
most readily accomplished by gathering the 
tops of the leaves together loosely as soon as 
the heads begin to form. Shut off the light 
but do not cramp the head. 
EXTRA-EARLY SNOWBALL. One of the 
best for forcing or open ground.
