Briggs Seed Limited, Toronto Cauliflowers grown from our Seed last season captured First Prize wherever CAULIFLOWER Fr., Chou Fleur. Ger., Blunien Kohle. For spring and early summer crop sow in March or early in April in hot-bed and transplant to cold frame when sufBciently large, and to the open ground as soon as danger of hard freezing is over. The plants will endure a light frost. The soil for cauliflower should be like that for cabbage ; but it is better to be made richer than is ordinarily used for that crop. Give the plants thorough culture, and keep free from worms with Persian insect powder. For late crop sow at same time as for late cabbage, and treat in the same manner. It should be borne in mind that cauliflower will not head up well in hot, dry weather, and hence the sowing should be so regulated as to bring it in either in early summer or late fall. Although nine-tenths of the cauliflowers grown in this country are produced without it, frequent and abundant watering is so beneficial that it pays well for the labor it costs. After the heads begin to foim draw the leaves over them and pin or tie them together to protect the heads from the sun and keep them white. They should be cut for use while the " curd " is compact and hard, as they soon become tough and bitter after they open and separate into branches. Owing to the seeds of some varieties being very expensive, there is great temptation to use the cheaper sorts. We think it well, therefore, to caution our customers to use only the best—the crop tells. >(^lll|-flnu#or fvfpolp Rricro'c' Fv+ra Farlv WhlfohoaH Remark- | leaved, dwarf for forcing, producing very solid, pure white heads of the finest |^/l#aUIITIOWer, Oteeie, DnggS tXira tany Wniiene
