Sow the seed in a hot-bed in January or February, and when the plants are large enough transplant tliree inches apart in boxes or in other hot-beds until time to plant out. If hardened off they are seldom injured by planting out as early as the ground can be properly prepared, 2j feet apart each way. Keep them well hoed, and bring the earth gradually up to their stems, watering freely in dry weather, and especially when they begin to head. The Cauliflower succeeds best when planted in frames at the close of winter and brought to maturity before the summer heat sets in. The late varieties mature in the autumn, and are sown and managed similar to winter cabbage. DREER'S Earliest Snowstorm. The earliest and best of all for forcing or in the open ground. (See illus- tration and read full description of this grand Cauliflower on page 2.) Pia., 25 cts.; i oz., § ; oz., §. DREER'S Selected Dwarf Erfurt. One of the earliest in cultivation; small-leaved dwarf, for forcing or open ground, producing very solid pure white heads of the finest quality. It grows about 15 inches high, and in ordi- nary seasons every plant will produce a marketable head. For an all-round market gardener's variety, we consider this the best for general outside use.
