Danvers Half -Long 



A handsome half-long cylindrical, stump-rooted Carrot of good 

 size and of a rich dark orange color; it grows to a large size; is smooth, 

 and the flesh very close in texture with very little core. It is a first- 

 class Carrot for all soils and has yielded 25 to 30 tons per acre. It is 

 more easily harvested than the longer types and is excellent to store 

 for winter, for stock or table use. (See engraving.) Price, oz. 20c.,

 desirable in a market variety. Price, oz. 25c., }4 lb. 75c., lb. $2.00.

Red Core Chantenay (New), p^o^irrky^of tSfnet^str'a?^ 



will outrival that of the old Chantenay, because in this type, the core 

 has been practically bred out. The color is also deeper and richer 

 which gives the beautifully shaped roots an even more attractive 

 appearance. In all other respects it possesses the fine qualities of 

 its parent, Chantenay. Price, oz. 25c., J^ lb. 50c., lb. $1.50.

Hutchinson Carrot yields a heavy crop and is a great favorite in some of 

 the eastern states being extensively grown by the market gardeners. We 

 consider our stock of Hutchinson to be extra fine. Price, oz. 30c., }i lb. 90c., 

 lb. $3.00. (10 lb. lots @ $2.90 lb.). 



Tenders weet, Henderson's 



Tendersweet is quite distinct; and carries the richest color ever seen on a 

 carrot. The flesh is a deep orange and the outer skin is scarlet. 



The roots measure eight to ten inches in length, and taper slightly off to a 

 blunt end. 



Tendersweet is very hardy and a heavy cropper, and we are certain that it 

 is going to be a favorite with market growers. The tops are quite different 

 from the tops of other carrots; as both the midribs and the stems show a distinct 

 purple tinge. Tendersweet has been tested under unfavorable conditions last 

 year and yet produced a good crop where most others failed. {See engraving.) 

 Price, oz. 35c., M lb. $1.15, lb. $3.50. (10 lb. lots @ $3.25 lb.).
