CARROTE CARROT CAR OTA 
Chantenay 
Coreless Chantenay — This is a new strain of 
this favorite early bunching Carrot which is quite 
free from the ordinary yellow core. It is very 
tender and sweet and always commands a high 
price on the market due to its attractive ap¬ 
pearance when cut or sliced.

Plant in drills 12 inches apart and when seedlings 
are set, thin to stand three inches apart in row. 
Sow in any good garden soil, or best, a sandy loam, 
well manured. Carrots may be stored in pits out¬ 
doors or in the vegetable cellar until late in the 
winter.

Red Cored Chantenay — This carrot has short¬ 
er and more finely cut tops than the regular 
Chantenay, but they are not brittle and are 
strong enough to bunch easily. The roots are 
about the same size and shape as Chantenay, a 
richer and deeper orange, and are decidedly more 
even and finer in appearance. What little core 
the carrot has is orange-red and quite incon¬ 
spicuous and slices and dices in ideal fashion. 
It matures a little earlier than Chantenay. 
Chantenay — The favorite early bunching Carrot. 
It is a half-long, blunt-ended root about six 
inches long, very thick and smooth, with wide 
shoulders which taper to an abrupt stump root. 
Its great productiveness and the ease with which 
it can be harvested make it most desirable 
although we consider the Red Cored to be a 
great improvement. 
Scarlet Nantes — An early variety, half-long and 
cylindrical in shape which holds its form uni¬ 
formly to the brief tap root. It is a bright orange- 
red in color and is nearly coreless and very tender 
throughout. Housewives like its smooth round 
shape and clear attractive color and prefer it over 
all others because it is easy to scrape and to slice. 
Imperator — A splendid new Carrot which meets 
the demand for a long Carrot with the quality 
of the short rooted varieties. Its fine texture and 
deep-solid orange color fit it for all purposes. 
Bagley’s Danvers — 
Hutchinson type 
without the green top; 
a carrot that grows 
all under ground. 
Really an improved 
Danvers strain. The 
stock we offer is es¬ 
pecially selected for 
uniformity. 
Danver’s Half-Long — 
The standard sort. 
Grows seven to eight 
inches long, square 
topped tapering to a 
blunt point. Root is 
smooth and hand¬ 
some, of an orange- 
red color with sweet 
crisp flesh. Will pro¬ 
duce the very best 
crop of roots to store 
for winter. 
Long Orange — Root 
about one foot long 
tapering from a three 
inch shoulder to a 
point. The flesh is an 
attractive deep 
orange. Used both 
for field and garden 
culture in good soils. 
Hutchinson 
Hutchinson is favored by New England Gardeners.
