MAULE'S DANVERS CARROT. 



Maule's Danvcrs Carrot 



This variety Is well adapted to all soils and sections, and some years 

 leads my whole list In number of orders. It is half long in shape, 

 almost cylindrical, somewhat stump rooted, and of rich, dark orange 

 color. I claim that it will yield greater bulk and weight for a given 

 length of root than any other carrot now grown. Over id tons per acre 

 of Maule's Danvers have been grown, and a yield of 25 to 30 tons per 

 acre is not uncommon. Grown extensively by market gardeners for 

 bunching and makes a handsome appearance on the market stalls; of 

 the finest quality. One of the most profitable sorts grown, which makes 

 it a widely popular and successful market carrot. Packet, 10 cents; 

 ounce, 25 cents; ^ pound, 75 cents; pound, $2.50.

Maule's Improved Long Orange 



Mine is, I think, the strongest and purest strain of the well- 

 known Long Orange carrot on the market. The roots are of 

 large size, and are smooth, fine grained and in all respects supe- 

 rior. Except In soil treated to raw stable manure, which makes 

 all root crops rough, this carrot is always well formed. The coloi 

 Is deep orange, as indicated by the name. Enormous crops can 

 be grown under good culture, particularly in a deep, light soil 

 Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 30 cts.; J^ pound, 60 cts.; pound, $3.35.

Lobberich's Agricultural 



Considered the best field carrot ever offered to American farm- 

 ers. It is of a rich yellow color, stump rooted, and grows to a 

 very large size. I introduced it some years ago at the personal 

 suggestion of a leading French seedsman, and have received 

 countless testimonials of its great availability and worth. It has 

 proved to be a most valuable carrot for stock feeding, and In my 

 own comparative trials It far outyields other sorts. It is re- 

 n^arkably free from toughness; while in its young state it may 

 be used for culinary purposes, as it cooks sweet and tender. 

 Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 15 cts.; >^ pound, 50 cts.; pound, $1.75.

Originated in France, where it Is a popular variety. Rich, deep 

 orange in color; large and handsome. Very straight roots, broad 

 at the top, often 2% to 8 Inches across, and 10 to 12 inches long. 

 Very little foliage for the size of the roots. Superior for table and 

 desirable for stock. Yields heavy crops In rich, light soil. 

 Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 30 cts.; impound, 60 cts.; pound, $3.35.
