EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN, FARM AND LAWN 
Carrots are one of our leading specialties, and have been for the 
last Twelve Years. They are unsurpassed. 
1 ounce will sow 100 feet of drill. 
It ia best to sow early in the spring as tlie ground is fit to worlc. thiough good crops may be grown from sowings as late 
as June 15th. Prepare the groimd thorouglily and sow in drills 12 to 18 inches apart. It is necessary to sow Carrots 
quite tJucklj;, 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 above the seed. Do not let the weeds 
get a start. Thin to 3 or 4 inches apart in the row.
