. Spring catalogue : 1900. Nurseries (Horticulture) Missouri Saint Louis Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Shrubs Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. Blumen-Kohl, Ger.; Choufleur, Fr.; Coliflor, Sp. One Ounce for 1,000 Plants Seed may be sown in September or October and wintered the same as early cabbage plants, or they may be sown in January or February, in a cool hot-bed. Tts culture is similar to that of the cabbage. The soil can not be made too rich and deep for the purpose. After they begin to head they should be watered every other day, and the leaves gathered and pinned together over the heads to protect them from the sun and keep them white. The seed we offer is the finest procurable, and is obtained from the most careful growers in Europe. EARLY SNOWBALL—The earliest and best of all for forcing or open ground culture. It is dwarf, with short outer leaves; always sure to make large, fine heads (see cut). Per pkt., 25c; y4 oz., ; oz., $2 50. EXTRA EARLY DWARF ERFURT—A favorite early market variety; large, compact heads of fine quality. Per pkt., 25c; V4oz., $; oz., $ EXTRA EARLY PARIS—A well-known, excellent va- riety. Per pkt., 10c; oz., 25c. Early Snowball CARROTS Mohre, Ger.; Carrotte, Fr.; Zonahoria, Sp. Deeply tilled soil, of a light, sandy nature, is the most suitable for Carrots. Avoid sowing on newly manured ground, which has a tendency to produce forked roots. Sow early in spring, in rows 15 inches apart and half an inch deep. Thin out the young plants to 5 inches (see cut). EARLY CH ANTE NAY, OR MODEL CARROT—For table use it is probably the best in shape and finest quality of all. They are a little longer than the Short Horn, and more productive, always very smooth and fine in texture. Per pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; y4lb., 30c; lb., 65c. 1. EARLY FRENCH FORCING;—The earliest variety, and one largely grown for forcing. Per pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; y4 lb., 25c; lb., 75c. 2. H
