CHANTENAY CARROT 



Days to maturity, 55-70. This variety, in- 

 troduced by the great French firm of X'ilmorin- 

 Andrieux & Cie. forty years ago, is still the lead- 

 ing commercial Carrot in the United States. It 

 has held its great popularity on merit alone for 

 it has a beautiful appearance and excellent table 

 quality. Its length will average from four to five 

 inches. Its color is a rich orange-red. In shape 

 the root is of great uniformity, of the half-long 

 type, smooth and free from side rootlets. Our 

 stock has been finely bred and may be planted 

 with absolute confidence by market gardeners, 

 truckers and ranchmen. Our sales of this 

 variety have now reached enormous proportions 

 and this could not have been possible had we 

 not had an extremely fine strain. If you have 

 not tried our Chantenay, do not fail to do so this 

 vear. 



DANVERS HALF-LONG 



Days to maturity, 60-75. Danvers Half-Long 

 is .slightly longer in reaching maturity than 

 Chantenay, but, as shown in the illustration, is 

 about an inch longer and on some markets will 

 bring a higher price. Like Chantenay, Danvers 

 is adaptable to various soil conditions. The 

 average diameter of the root is slightly smaller 

 than Chantenay. The color is a bright orange, 

 ver>' slightly lighter than Chantenay, but on the 

 other hand the variety is not so likely to split 

 in wet weather. Our strain is giving excellent 

 satisfaction wherever planted and is recom- 

 mended without qualification. 



Our uniform Chantenay makes a brilliant market appearance
