ful selection of the best formed and 
deepest colored roots of the old Long —

er than the Long Orange, and smooth- 
er, but so uniform and true that the 
bulk of the crop will be greater.

| We think this distinct variety is 
[ | p destined to take first rank as a 
field carrot, owing to its enor- 
mous productiveness and the ease with which it can be harvested. 
Roots half long, smooth, very heavy at the shoulder, but taper 
regularly to the point; color light green at the crown, pure white 
below; flesh rich, white, solid, crisp and of excellent flavor. This 
variety is a real acquisition as a heavy yielding, easily harvested, 
white carrot, and is the best of this class.
