EXTRA EARLY PARISIAN FORCING CARROT. 



144 



Extra Early Parisian Forcing 



This carrot is one of such quick growth that we think a good name for 

 it is the radish carrot, for it certainly matures as quickly as a radish. 

 The root is formed much quicker than the well known French Forcing 

 carrot. It has a very fine neck and a rather hollow crown. Leaves are 

 short and erect, and while small are quite sufficient for early bunching; 

 good for forcing under glass or outdoors. It has been the first carrot on 

 the Parisian market for anumber of years and we can highly recom- 

 mend it to all our customers who desire an early, delicious carrot that 

 will mature as soon as many varieties of radishes. 



Packet, 10 cts.; ounce, 23 cts.; ^ pound, 75 cts.; pound, $2.50.
