Carrotte, Fr. Zanahorias, Span. 3Ioehren, Ger. 



Early Scarlet Short-Horn. Lonq Orange. 



Early Scarlet Horn. Altrinqham or Field. 



Half-long Orange. Large White Field. 



The first three are the best kinds for table use. The Early Horn 

 should be cultivated for spring use ; but the Long Orange is more 

 suitable for main a crop. For an early crop sow the seed, latter end 

 of March, in "well-dug, rich loamy soil, in drills about an inch deep 

 and twelve inches apart. For late crop sow in May. 



The most suitable ground for late Carrots, is that which has been 

 well-manured for previous crops, and requires no fresh manure. If 

 the seed be sown in June, and the plants thinned out to the distance of 

 five or six inches from each other when young, and kept hoed they 

 will yield — in fayorable seasons, an abundance of fine roots for winter 

 and spring use.

Sow for early about the middle of September, in a bed of clean rich 

 earth. In about four or five weeks afterward, the plant should be 

 pricked out into anether bed, at the distance of four inches from each 

 other every way ; these should be encompassed with garden frames ; 

 covered with glass sashes, and boards or shutters. The beds must be 

 so secured, and the tops of the beds so covered as to keep out all frost, 

 giving them light and air every mild day throughout the winter. 



Transplant in April into a bed of the richest earth, in the garden, at a 

 distance of two feet and a half each way. Keep them well hoed, and 

 bring the earth gradually up to their stema. The late variety matures 

 in the autumn, and is sown and managed similarly to Cape Broccoli, 

 but not so certain to succeed in this climate.

 five or six inches high, transplant a portion in trenches well-manured, 

 and repeat at intervals of two or three weeks for succession. As they
