A SHAPELY, uniform, attractive, bright-colored, sweet, tender Carrot is 

 the Carrot that every trucicer can have. It is not a matter of chance, 

 but the result of the utmost attention and care in the selection of only 

 the most perfect and faultless Carrots, from which stock we grow our seed. 

 This stock is not only the selection of one or two seasons. In which case it 

 might readily return to its former crude and unattractive wild state, but it Is 

 the result of the most painstaking separation and selection by careful and 

 experienced growers for many years. Our stocks of Carrots are Jiot given a 

 second place in our seed-growing, as they are with many other seedsmen, but 

 are grown in the very best localities to produce their utmost perfection, and 

 recefve our personal care and attention. If you intend growing Carrots this 

 season, why not grow the best.

ma:rket gardeners for its beautiful color and form. _ , __

 finer. It is a wonderfully heavy crop-

either garden or field culture. It grows to a large size, fair spec- 

 imens averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches in diameter at 

 the top. All who have cattle should raise a surplus of this 

 Carrot for feeding milch cows during Winter. It increases the 

 flow of milk, and imparts to butter a rich golden color. Market 

 gardeners use it more largely than other varieties. Put., 5c.

CULTURE OP CARROTS. 



/^ARROTS to grow to perfection require a deep, rich, sandy 

 '-' loam, well pulverized and deeply cultivated. For an early 

 crop sow in May and June in drills about 1 foot apart, thinning 

 out to 4 inches in the row; sow for Winter crop in June and July. 

 It is very important to tread the rows firmly after sowing seed. 



W PRIDE OF THE MARKET CARROT. 

 5 OF THE MARKET CARROT is the most per- 

 tect, finest colored, most tender and best fiavored that 

 was ever placed in your hands. Pride of the Market 

 because it is the best. You must have the best of every- 

 thing. In Carrots, to get the best we select roots that 

 resemble our ideal, and from them grow seed for you 

 The Pride of the Market is half long, deep color, free from 

 small, unattractive side roots; small, tender core, uniform 

 and graceful. The photograph above will tell you better 

 than we can what a perfect form it has. As an early Car- 

 rot, it is all vour heart could wish. In midsummer we 

 have seen it outsell every other variety on account of its 

 superior merits and quality; for Winter there is none like 

 it. Its attractive tops remain a rich green, thus giving it a 

 fresh and beautiful appearance, and enabling you to 

 bunch it when your neighbor is compelled to sell his by the 

 measure. This Carrot will make your stall attractive dur- 

 ing Winter, when vegetables are scarce and uninviting. 

 At all times of the year, and in every way you taf-^-U. 

 the Pride of the Market Carrot will pay you and b( 

 friend. PUt., 5c. Oz., lOc. 2 Ozs., 15c. 1/4 Lb
