*Caulicab 
After years of selection we originated and 
offered this entirely new type of vegetable in 
1949. It is the beginning of a new race. When 
planted in the Spring along with the first early 
cabbage it matures solid heads in the early Fall. 
When grown this way it is distinguished by the 
large ribs running nearly to the top of the heads 
and clear through the heads. When planted in 
the late Summer they head the next Spring, then 
the mature heads have an outer layer of cabbage- 
like leaves, but with the main part of the head 
filled with tightly folded sprouts and buds of 
amber color. In either case they are very tender 
and sweet and ideal for raw salads or cooking. 
It is a cross between cabbage and winter cauli- 
flower. The flavor is different from either and 
is very mild. The cross includes St. Valentine 
Spring cauliflower and results in the most vigor- 
ous growth. Plants often stand 3 feet tall with 
large, long leaves, inclined to curl and twist. They 
will stand cold weather down to 10 above zero. 
It is claimed by customers that it does not cause 
gas like cabbage or cauliflower. Even if the 
heads burst in the Spring and become green they 
are superior to green broccoli, being milder and 
more tender. A very nutritious vegetable. In those 
parts of the nation where cabbage will not stand 
through the Winter, without severe damage, it 
should be transplanted in the Spring when early 
cabbage plants are set out. We have good reports 
on Caulicab from all sections of the U. S. It 
deserves a good trial by all gardeners. We have 
received many fine reports from customers. Post- 
paid. Pkt. 25¢; %4 oz. $1.25; oz. $3.00; 14 Ib. 
$9.00; Ib. $25.00.

SEEDS SMALL PART OF COST 
Why prepare and cultivate a garden with 
the cheapest seed? A few cents additional 
in cost of seed may spell the difference 
between success and failure. Our vegetable 
seeds are very popular with market gar- 
deners. Cheap seeds are usually dear at any 
cost. Yet, with all, our prices are reasonable 
and still maintain high quality.
