Cauliflower ought to receive a similar treatment to Cabbage, except that it requires an extra rich -<oil, an occasional application of liquid maaure and frequent watering:, especially when heading. Early sorts in this latitude are mostly sown in January or February in hot-beds, transplanted once before setting in open ground, and finally transplante i before the middle of April in rich, deeply worked soil, 2 feet by 15 inches apart.

The improved strain that we offer of this variety is the best that is grown, no difference under what name it is offered.

Of dwarf habit, with very short outer leaves, allowing it to be planted close together. Per pkt. 15 cts., oz. 60 cts., oz. $ DANISH GIANT. This variety is also listed as 'Dry Weather' Cauliflower. This is a fine, large variety, that produces solid, pure white heads, about a week or ten days later than Snowball.

Per pkt. 15 cts., 4 oz. 50 cts., oz. $ HALF EARLY PARIS. One of the most popular varieties in cultivation; heads very white, com- pact, of delicious flavor, sure to head and good for an ea
