OLDS' CARROTS 
The CaMot is one of the most valuable of vegetables and should be cultivated more extensively. They are very 
•wholesome and contain the essential vitamins. Growing children should be fed carrots regularly. Our carrot seed is 
grown from carefully selected roots and will produce the kind of crop that you want. Carrot seed is very short this 
season. One pkt. will sow 50 feet of drill; 1 oz., 300 feet, 2 to 3 pounds an acre. 
CULTURE: Carrots will do well on practically any soil although they will do the best on loam. Sow the seed as 
early as possible in rows 18 to 24 inches apart. Thin the seedlings to 2 or 3 inches apart in the row. The seed 
should be sown to a depth of about 4 times the diameter of the seed. Do not depend ujion only one planting of carrots 
as they are at their best when young and tender. Plant every two or three weeks up to the middle of July.

CARROTS FOR STOCK. 
Carrots make excellent feed for livestock. They may 
be substituted for grain or other concentrates to the ex¬ 
tent of replacing one-half of the dry matter. When 
thus used 8 to 10 pounds of roots will replace 1 pound 
of concentrates. Roots can be produced for from $4 to $5 
per ton while other concentrates cost about $30 per ton.
