The Best Stock Carrots 
Every farmer should plant a few acres of Carrots for stock food; they are 
very productive, less liable to disease than many other root crops, and being 
sown earlier do not interfere so much with the labor in the busy time. They 
can be stored over Winter like Potatoes. Make excellent nutritive feed for 
all stock. Horses are very fond of them and they increase the flow of milk 
in cows, improve the quality of butter and give it a beautiful golden color.
