Extra early Dwarf Erfurt
Very early, hardy, dwarf and compact; larger than Walcheren. One of the very best for forcing and for general purposes as an early variety. Its compact habits admit of a large number being raised on a given area. I have grown some heads for seed stock that measured 18 inches in diameter. Extra choice. Specially selected. Pkt., 50c; oz., $5.00
Gerry Island
I would advise my customers to test this cauliflower for earliness side by side with any variety in the market. If it deports itself in other localities as it has in my experimental ground it will equal all other varieties in earliness, while in reliability for heading it will be excelled by none.Pkt., 25c; oz., $1.50
