12 THE SNOWY RANGE SEED & HARDWARE COMPANY 
Cauliflower 
CULTURE 
One ounce will produce 2,000 plants. Four to 6 
ounces of seed are required to produce enough 
plants to set an acre. Cauliflower delights in a 
rich, moist soil and in dry seasons should be 
abundantly watered, especially when heading. 
Early cauliflower is difficult to grow and is not 
of the best quality as the plants mature when the 
weather is hot. When the plants are set out about 
the first of July there should be no difficulty in 
getting fine large heads of first class quality, as 
these plants will mature when the weather is cool. 
For early crops sow the seed in the hot beds in 
January or February and transplant when weather 
permits. For late crop sow the seed in cold 
frames or in the open ground in April or May. 
Set only young, stocky plants that have not been 
stunted; 10,000 plants will plant an acre, Cauli- 
flower is a rank grower and requires more room 
than cabbage. Care must be taken that the plants 
do not become checked in growth as that will 
cause them to head prematurely. Cultivation for 
cauliflower is the same as for cabbage. When 
heading tie the outside leaves loosely over the 
head.to protect it from the sun. 
SUPER-SNOWBALL 
A very excellent variety bred for early headings 
and uniformity. Heads are compact, medium 
large, pure white in color. Plants are sturdy. Leaf 
growth sufficient to make tying easy. A popular 
variety among market gardeners and shippers.

EARLY SUPER SNOWDRIFT 
An outstanding new cauliflower. It is_ early. 
Plants grow and head like Super Snowball, but 
the heads are larger, heavier, deeper and more 
solid, like Snowdrift. All growers who have tried 
this new variety are reordering seed.

SNOWDRIFT 
Is a somewhat more vigorous type of the Snow- 
ball class and selected to produce a larger head 
than Snowball without losing its earliness. This 
new strain matures with great evenness. The 
pure white heads are remarkable for their great 
depth, weight and unexcelled white color. The 
curd is of fine texture and resistant in a high 
measure to “riciness,’ and ‘fuzziness.’ We are 
sincere in believing that Snowdrift ranks as one 
of the very superior stocks of Cauliflower avail- 
able anywhere.

WHITE MOUNTAIN 
A very desirable sort for shipping. A strong 
growing variety of the Snowball type, produces 
larger and deeper heads and with no unusual 
growing hinderances will make very ample foli- 
age with overlapping leaves over the head as a 
protection to the snow white heads in its forming. 
It is short stemmed and is not as “leggy” as many 
other types; matures with great uniformity and 
when tied comes on very rapidly.
