CARROTS. 



Half-Long Luc. 



Chantenay Carrot. 



Carrots succeed best on light, sandy loam, which, preferably, should have been 

 well fertilized the previous year, as fresh manure often causes the roots to grow pronged 

 and misshapen. Sow the seeds as early in spring as the ground can be prepared, firm- 

 ing the soil down over it. If sown late it should be soaked in tepid water, then mixed 

 with plaster or sifted coal-ashes, and sown upon freshly prepared soil. Quick germina- 

 tion and rapid growth are necessary. An ounce of seed will sow 100 feet of drill ; 

 four pounds will sow an acre.
