Carroten ( Ger .) 
CARROTS Carota (It.) 
An ounce will sow about 300 feet of row. It requires 2 to 4 lbs. of 
seed for an acre, depending on how far the rows are apart. 
Carrots often prove very profitable. They do best on muck 
or soil of that nature, although very good crops are raised on sandy 
loam. For late fall market the seed is usually sown in June or first 
of July. If small carrots for bunching are wanted the seed may 
be sown as late as August 1st in the North and later further South. 
Red Cored Chantenay 
A Superior Market Variety 
The fine quality of this carrot has made it rapidly replace 
the old style Chantenay as a market carrot. Our strain of Red 
Cored Chantenay has been constantly improved and will be 
found to be exceptionally fine. It is well over 95% coreless, 
smoother and more uniform than many other strains which 
we have seen. 
Oz. 15c; M lb. 40c; lb. $1.25; 10 lbs. $11.00. 
Chantenay Carrot —Special Strain 
Grows about an inch longer than Red Cored. Most 
strains of Chantenay usually sold, and is superior in shape 
and smoothness. This carrot has proved a popular bunching 
variety on many markets. 
Oz. 12c; lb. 35c; lb. $1.10; 10 lbs. $10.00. 
Imperator 
An Outstanding Carrot for Bunching 
This is the fine bunch carrot which is shipped to Eastern 
markets from California. This carrot does just as well here 
and should be grown more for the high class bunch trade. The 
carrots are long (8 in.) smooth, somewhat tapering, stump 
rooted and deep orange color. The tops are just right for 
bunching and the appearance very attractive. 
Oz. 15c; y± lb. 45c; lb. $1.50; 10 lbs. $14.00.
