14 THE FRANK S. PLATT COMPANY 
Snowball Cauliflower 
Cauliflower 
Blumen Kohl—Coliflor—Cavolfiore 
Should be sown according to instructions for cabbage. It will thrive best in cool, moist situations. 
Early Snowball. The finest early variety and more generally grown than any other. Handsome, almost 
snow-white. Heads of medium size, firm and well formed. Plant is compact, short-stemmed, with few short 
upright leaves. Keen competition among growers has produced several excellent strains, some of which are 
offered on the market under various names. However, careful comparisons on Long Island, in Connecticut 
and New York State show our strain to be a stock of superior quality and well suited to this territory. Per 
pkt., 25c.; 0z., $2.70; %4-lb., $8.00; Ib., $25.00. 
Super Snowball. This Snowball is a real marvel in earliness and simultaneousness in heading. In trials 
it has headed from two to three weeks sooner than other stocks with which we are acquainted and so simul- 
taneously throughout the field that almost the entire crop can be harvested at one cutting. Moreover, the heads 
are large, deep and solid and the foliage is strong and vigorous, forming a good protection. Per pkt., 25c.; oz., 
$2.85; %4-lb., $8.75; Ib., $27.50. 
Early Dwarf Erfurt. An excellent stock of the Snowball type, though not so early. Per pkt., 25c.; oz., 
$2.70; %4-lb., $8.00; 1b., $25.00. 
Danish Giant. (Dry Weather). It is well known that a constant moisture supply in the soil is neces- 
sary to a successful Cauliflower crop. It has been found, however, that Danish Giant will stand more unfavorable 
conditions in this respect than either Snowball or Erfurt. It is about two weeks later and fully twenty per cent 
larger heading produced on a much ‘smaller plant. The head is pure white and of fine quality. Per pkt., 25c.; oz., 
$2.70; %4-lb., $8.00; Ib., $25.00. 
Celeriac or Turnip-Rooted Celery 
A variety of celery, having turnip-shaped roots which may be cooked, or sliced and used with vinegar, making 
a most excellent salad. It is more hardy, and may be treated in the same manner as celery. 
Turnip-Rooted. (Large Prague). Turnip-shaped, large and smooth, delicious flavor. Per pkt., 15c.; 
oz., $1.00; %4-lb., $3.00; lb., $9.00.
