variety for market gardeners. The 
color is appealing, rich deep solid

ON THIS PAGE 
Culture —A light, loamy soil that 
hasjbeen well manured the previous 
year is preferred for growing Car¬ 
rots, although good crops may be 
obtained from ordinary garden soil. 
For early use seed may be sown in 
hotbeds from January until March, 
and in the open ground as soon as 
the weather becomes warm and set¬ 
tled, usually in April. Sow seed 
A in. deep in rows 15 in. apart, and 
later thin to 5 in. in the row. Keep 
soil between the rows well hoed and 
free from weeds. From July 1 to 
15, sow for Winter crops. 
Culture —Sow the last of March or 
early in April, in an open border, in 
rich, mellow ground, in shallow drills 
watering freely in dry weather. By 
rolling or pressing in the seed the 
result will be more satisfactory than 
when covered. Cut the tops off once 
or twice before planting out, to make 
them stocky. When the plants are 
5 or 6 in. high transplant the dwarf 
varieties 3 ft. and the taller sorts 
4 ft. between the rows; plant 6 in. 
apart in the rows. Cultivate well, 
and when large enough, blanch by 
earthing up.
