inches apart, using from 1 Vs to 3 pounds of seed to the acre. Cover % to 1 inch deep and see to it that the soil

One of our customers writes; "I have grown and marketed 
Carrots for 40 years, but I never had any that were as tender and 
sweet and sell so readily a>s your Private Stock Danvers." 
That's What You'll Say After 
Trying Them This Year 
Danver carrots have been the standard for over fifty years and 
we need not try to offer any proofs as to their popularity. Carrot- 
breeding is in about the same class as stock-breeding, and if same 
is not kept true, will deteriorate very quickly. We have endeavored 
to do more than keep the old parent sort true, and have actually 
bred up the quality of Danver Carrot to such perfection that 
the old parent sort would be ashamed of itself. To distinguish 
our sort fi-om others, we have termed our strain Condon's 
Private Stock Dan\crs. Same has been bred for quality and for 
vield and on a Riven acreage it will produce a larger crop of 
marketable roots than any other kind. The roots are of a rich 
orange color, and about 6 inches long, with blunt point: adapted 
to all classes of soil. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 16 cents; pound, 
48 cents; H pound, 85 cents; pound, $1.60, postpaid.
