One ounce will produce about two thousand plants. There is no vegetable grown more delicious than the Cauliflower. With a deep rich soil, plenty of moisture and thorough cultivation, it is as easily grown as cab- bage. For early, the seed may be sown in September, and the plants wintered in well-protected cold frames, or sow in hot-beds early in March, and when sufficiently large transplant in cold frames, and gradually harden by exposure. When the weather will permit, set in the open ground in rows three feet apart, and two feet between the plants in the row. For fall crops, sow at the same time and treat in the same manner as late cabbage. Cauliflower will not head in hot dry weather, therefore, the time of planting should be regulated so they will head either in early summer or autumn. Keep well watered when they begin to head. If the leaves are drawn up and tied loosely over the head it will hasten blanching. Cut before the flower begins to open. Henderson's Early Snowball. An extremely early dwarf variety Perpkt. Per^oz.
