CARROT 



Henderson's Select Market Growers Stocks 





DANVERS BHALF-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 larger types and is excellent to store for winter, for 

 stock or table use. (See engraving.)

TENDERSWEET, HENDERSON'S The roots measure eight to ten 

 inches in length, and taper slightly off to a blunt end. The color is the 

 richest ever seen in a carrot. The flesh is a deep orange and the outer skin 

 is scarlet. 



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. 

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



RED CORE CHANTENAY We feel confident that the popularity of 

 this new strain 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.

THE HUTCH I NSON This variety is of the Dan vers type but the 

 roots are not so broad at the shoulder and are also considerably longer 

 and more cylindrical in shape. 



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.
