when fully grown. 2% lbs. to the acre. 
DANVER’S.—A half long orange carrot, 
grown largely on account of its great pro- 
ductiveness and adaptability to all classes 
of soil. It is a desirable second early 
carrot for the home garden, and is also 
suitable for field culture. The tops are 
of medium size. The mature roots are of 
medium length, six to eight inches long, 
tapering uniformly to a blunt point. The 
flesh is deep orange, tender and of good 
quality. Although the roots of this variety 
at maturity are comparatively short they 
often produce as large a bulk as the longer 
field sorts and are more easily harvested. 
Has become a leading variety for shipping.
