Guerande, or Ox Heart. 
Carrot. 
Seepages 17-19. 
We think the Agricultural Experiment Stations of this country could 
do no greater service to their constituents, the farmers and stock raisers, 
than to inaugurate a campaign of education on the subject of growing 
Carrots for stock feed. Not a tithe of the quantities that should be are 
grown in this country for this purpose, because they are the richest in 
food constituents of any of the roots and none are more readily or greed¬ 
ily eaten by horses, cattle or sheep. 
The varieties we call your especial attention to below are all splen¬ 
didly adapted to field culture, as the roots are of medium length, making 
them easy to harvest, anti give an enormous weight of feed per acre. 
CHANTENAY. 
EARLY enough to use for forcing; LARGE enough to grow as a field crop for 
stock; DELICATELY enough flavored to grace the table of an epicure; this 
variety is without a rival for general market or nome use. 
Per packet, 5c.; oz., 10c.; 2 oz., 1.5c.; h lb., 25c.; 1 lb., 75c., postpaid. 
GUERANDE, OR OX HEART. 
This old favorite is ESPECIALLY 
ADAPTED TO SHALLOW OR 
STIFF SOILS, as the roots seldom reach over six inches in length. THERE IS PERHAPS NO RED CARROT. 
HOWEVER, THAT WILL GIVE A GREATER WEIGHT OF ROOTS PER ACRE. It is equally adapted to 
table use or for stock. 
Per packet, 5c.; oz., 10c.; 2 oz., 15c.; lb., 25c.; 
Chantenay. 
1 lb., 75c., postpaid. 
IMPROVED LONG ORANGE. 
We have a splendid strain of this variety and urge everyone whose soil is suited to it to plant it largely. 
Per packet, 5c.; oz., 10c?., 2 oz., 15c.; U lb., 2.5c.; 1 lb., 75e., postpaid. 
On loose, mellow, deep soils, this 
standard sort will give an enormous crop. 
D. M. FERRY & CO’S IMPROVED SHORT WHITE. 
This splendid new variety bears the same relation to the White Belgian that the Chantenaj' does to the old Long Red. 
IT HAS SHORT, THICK ROOTS, WHICH GIVE AN IMMENSE WEIGHT PER ACRE AND ARE 
EXCEEDINGLY EASILY HARVESTED.
