The Carrot, like other root crops, delights ina 
sandy loam, deeply tilled. It is best to sow on 
ground that has been well manured the previous 
year for some other crop, such as Celery, Pota- 
toes, Onions or Peas, but avoiding such crops as 
Cabbage or Turnips, or any of the tap-rooted sec- 
tion. For early and main crops sow the latter 
part of April; for later crops they may be sown 
any time until the beginning of June. Sow in 
rows about 15 inches apart, and half an inch deep, 
thinning out 3 or 4 inches between the plants.
