DANVERS ORANGE. 
CARROT8. 
Carrots require a deep, 
rich soil. I grow them very 
successfully on muck land, 
raising one season 580 bush- 
els oft the Dan vers Orange 
on five-eights of an acre of 
land. I consider them ex- 
cellent for horses, when 
kept on dry feed. Sow about 
the middle of May, in drills 
eighteen inches apart, and 
thin to three inches in the 
rows. Keep free from weeds 
and the tops will soon shade 
the ground, and further 
weeding will be unneces- 
sary. 
The White Belgian will 
give the largest crops, but is 
not as nutritious as the 
Orange Carrots. As it grows 
partly above ground, it is 
easier to harvest. 
The Dan vers Orange. 
I regard the Danvers carrot 
as great an improvement on the Long Orange as the Danvers 
onion is on the common yellow. It gives greater bulk, with less 
length of root, and being shorter, it is easier to dig. My seed is 
the genuine Danvers. Per packet;, 5 cents ; oz., 10 cents , J lb., 
-35 cents ; lb., $1.25. 
liOng Orange. — This is an old standard \ ariety and largely 
grown. Per packet, 5 cents; oz., 10 cents; i lb. 30 cents ; lb., 
fl.OO. 
Half Long- Orange, Stump-Kooted.— A stump-rooted 
Orange carrot intermediate between the Long Orange and the 
French Short Horn. A very fine carrot for the table. Per 
packet, 5 cents ; oz., 10 cents ; ilb., 35 cents ; lb., $1.25. 
Gruerande, or 
Oxlieart. — This va- 
riety, though not a 
long carrot, will pro- 
duce large crops, the 
diameter often being 
as great as the length. 
Bright orange, and 
fine grained. Easy to 
harvest and fine for 
bu aching. Per pack- 
et, 5 cents; oz.. 15 
cents ; i lb., 50 cents; 
lb., $1.75. 
Half Long Scarlet Carentan. — An early variety, nearly 
coreless ; excellent for forcing, and used as an early crop in the 
open ground. Per packet, 5 cents ; oz., 10 cents ; i lb., 35 cents; 
lb., $1.25. 
Giant White Belgian Green Top. — Grows one-third 
above ground ; lower part of root white, that above ground, 
green ; a heavy cropper ; grown exclusively for feeding stock. 
Per packet, 5 cents', oz., 10 cents ; i lb., 20 cents ; lb., 75 cents. 
I was so well pleased with the seeds I got of you last spring, 
that I am going to send to you for my seeds next spring, and 
some of my neighbors are going to send with me. 
JODIE TRIMBLE, Duffan, Texas. 
I am much pleased with the corn, potatoes and onions raised 
from seed purchased of you last spring. (1887.) I carried away 
first prize at our fair on the Atwell Field Corn.
