Long; Orange. 
Hardy and easily grown and therefore one of the most satisfactory vegetables for 
the home garden. Young carrots when boiled and served with cream sauce are delicious. 
Soups and stews are not complete without carrots and they are also served in many 
other ways. 
A constant supply of carrots may be had by sowing early sorts in succession or by sowing early, 
medium, and late varieties at the same time. Carrots may be left in the ground for a long time as they 
do not become bitter as do beets. % ij 
Any garden soil will grow carrots. For early crops sow as early in the spring as possible and in 
rows eighteen inches to two feet apart. Cover not more than % inch deep. When the plants are about 
three or four inches high thin out to two inches apart for the small early varieties and four inches apart 
for the late ones. Give them plenty of room. Keep them thoroughly hoed. 
A packet will plant about 20 feet; an ounce, 150 feet; and three pounds, an acre. 
The late crops should be dug in the autumn and stored like Turnips and other root crops.
