Nurseries (Horticulture) Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Nursery stock Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs. Vegetables W. C. BECKERT, 101 AND 103 FEDERAL ST., NORTH SIDE, PITTSBURGH, PA. CAULIFLOWER (Slumenfohl) How to Grow Fine Cauliflower. Culture for Cauliflower and cabbage is essentially the same, but to the former extra care given in applying fertilizers and moisture well repays the gar- dener. Sow the seeds for early and late crops as directed for cabbage, but do not set the early plants in the open field too soon, for if too much stunted by severe frosts, they begin to form heads before they are strong enough to develop them well. Plants which have not headed before winter sets in may be stored in a cool cellar or coldframe, and will form heads without further attention. An ounce of seed will produce about 1,500 plants. BECKERT'S EARLY SNOWBALL. Produces large, hand- some heads, measuring 8 to 10 inches across; pure snowy white; close, compact and of the finest quality. The stalks are short, of compact growth, and can be planted closely. It is extra early, a very certain header, and equally good for a late crop. Un- surpassed by any strain offered. Pkt. 25 cts., l^oz. $1, oz. $ BECKERT'S SMALL-LEAVED SNOWBALL. About two weeks earlier than the preceding; a sure header and fine for forcing, or outdoor culture. Pkt. 25 cts., M°z- $1. oz. $ EXTRA-EARLY ERFURT. The plants may be depended upon to form large, firm, white heads; very early. Pkt. 20 cts., oz. 95 cts., oz. $ DANISH GIANT, or DRY WEATHER. Similar to Snowball in size, quality, etc., but matures about one week later and is a better drought- and heat-resister. Pkt. 25c, Moz- SL oz- $ PERFECTION. A new and distinct variety that is as early as Snowball and producing equally as perfect a head. Has long leaves that
