CARROT 
Root Crops should receive the Special Attention of Home Gardeners because 
by storing them in cellars, or in pits outside, a bountiful supply of vegetable food 
for the winter may be secured. Our booklet ‘*Henderson’s Garden Culture of 
Root Crops” gives full instructions for planting, cultivating and also storing for 
winter, of allroot crops. Sent free if asked for when ordering. 
HENDERSON’S INTERMEDIATE CARROT 
A large, handsome, main crop variety, between half-long and long, 
with an enormous yielding capacity in deep soils. The root, 10 or 
12 inches in length, is very broad at the neck, 2 to 3 inches through, 
and tapers evenly to the small tap-root. It grows smoothly and 
uniformly and has rich reddish-orange flesh, tender, sweet and 
entirely free from woody coarseness even at maturity. 
As a table Carrot it is unsurpassed; for truckers its fine color and 
appearance render it salable, while as a field Carrot its great yield 
makes it valuable. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. 14 1b., $2.00 lb. 
IMPROVED LONG ORANGE CARROT 
An improved strain of this popular variety for either garden or 
field culture, roots averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches in 
diameter at the top; an enormous yielder and a good keeper. The 
strain we offer is the result of painstaking selection—spread over a ° 
period of years—of the most highly colored and the most perfectly 
shaped roots of the old variety of Long Orange. 
The old variety was justly esteemed for stock feeding purposes 
but Improved Long Orange is highly desirable for table use, the 
flavor being extremely good, and the flesh tender. Price, 5c. pkt., 
20c. 0z., 60c. 14 1b., $2.00 Ib. 
OXHEART or Guerande CARROT 
An excellent sort for the private garden, being especially valuable 
eeeeee| for spring and early summer crop. Its short, stocky character 
Mee | gives it great value on shallow soils, where the larger varieties will 
| not succeed and the compact growing leaves allow close planting. 
m| The quality is excellent; it remains tender long after maturitypyand 
‘|may be used while very small for soups, etc. It is excellent for 
growing in frames. Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 75c. 14 1b., $2.50 Ib. 
Half-Long Red STUMP-ROOTED CARROT 
A shapely, stump-rooted variety, of medium size, and one of the 
best for private gardens, for sum- 
mer use; medium early. Price, 
Q ; 5c. pkt.

size and of a rich, dark orange color; it grows to a large size; is , Me Z 
smooth, and the flesh very close in texture with very little core. Fone ee 
Itisa first-class Carrot for all soils and has yielded 25 to 30 Stump - 
tons per acre, with the smallest length of root of any now ery Mr

(See engraving) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. 0z., 60c. 14 Ib., $2.00 1b. 
CHANTENAY CARROT 
This splendid Carrot belongs to the half-long “‘stump”’ 
or blunt-rooted type, but differs from all others of this 
class by its greater girth, bulk and consequent yield. oe 
averages 6 to 7 in. in length, is broad at the neck 
narrowing gradually to the round, blunt base, 
therefore is easily harvested. The flesh, almost ¢ 
free from core, is of rich orange-red and of the 
finest table quality: fine-grained, tender, juicy 
and delicately flavored. Chantenay Carrot is 
an excellent variety for use either for an early | 
crop or a main crop. In the latitude of New 
York sow as early as possible for early carrots, ™%& 
certainly notlaterthantheendof April. The . 
roots of course are best when used young. Fora 
* main crop sow Chantenay from June 1st to June 
20th. Carrots split and grow rooty if checked in 
growth. This may be avoided by watering when dry, 
and by an occasional application of liquid manure. (See 
engraving). Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. 14 lb., $2.00 lb.
