Everything for the Garden, Farm and Lawn. 
CARROT 
1 ounce will sow 100 feet of drill. 
It is best to sow'early in the spring as the ground is fit to work, though good crops may 
be grown from sowings as late as June 15th. Prepare the ground thoroughly and sow 
in drills 12 to 18 inches apart. It is necessary to sow Carrots quite thickly, on account 
of the young plants not having sufficient strength to come through the ground when 
sown thinly. Cover one-eighth to one-fourth inch deep and see to it that the soil is 
well firmed about the seed. Do not let the weeds get a start. Thin to 3 or 4 inches 
apart in the row.
