CARROTS 
1 oz. to 150 feet of drill; 4 pounds per acre 
Sow as early as the ground can be worked or for late 
crop until the latter part of July, in drills 12 to 18 inches 
apart, finally thinning the pants to 2 to 3 inches in the 
drills. The seed is slow to germinate and if sown early 
or on moist soil, half an inch is deep enough. When 
sown during the hot summer months it is well to protect 
the seed bed with a thin layer of chips or straw as 
excessive heat will kill the vitality of the seeds before 
they germinate. After the seed has sprouted remove 
the covering, selecting the late afternoon for this work. 
Carrots are usually quite free from pests and diseases.
