Carrots thrive best in rather a light, rich loam. The ground should be well manured with fine, well-rotted or composted 

 manure, and be thoroughly worked quite deep. Sow from middle of April to middle of May, in rows 14 inches apart, and thin 

 the plants to 5 or 6 inches in the row. For late crops sow in June or July. An important point is to tread the rows firmly 

 after sowing. For field culture, Carrots should be sown in drills 3 to 3^ feet apart, so as to cultivate with horse.

 thick at the top; nearly oval iK shape; the flesh 

 is bright orange, fine grained and sweet. Of the 

 finest table quality and equally good for stock.

CHANTENAY. 



I) AN VERS. 



A most excellent, medium early, half long variety. It is one of the best in quality 

 for the market and home garden, while its great productiveness and the ease with 

 which it can be harvested make it desirable as a field sort. The tops are medium 

 sized with small neck. The mature roots are thick, five and one-half to six inches in 

 length, uniformly half long or stump rooted but tapering slightly, smooth, deep 

 orange-red in color. The flesh is very crisp and tender. Although a medium early 

 sort the roots are suitable for use nearly as early as any. The variety is extensively 

 used for bunching.
