On* Ounce Will Sow 
Well, friends, here is something that all of us cer¬ 
tainly can grow. They are healthy; fine for soups, salads, 
baking, frying, canning—and how they grow! We grew 
a fine lot of carrots in our garden again this year. The 
Coreless variety is one that we want to recommend that 
you plant this season. Store in pits or boxes of sand in 
basement for winter use. 
Culture. Land should be thoroughly manured the pre¬ 
vious season. Forked roots result if seed is sown on 
freshly manured or poorly prepared ground. Sow early 
sorts in March and April, one inch deep and rows 14 
inches apart. Sow main crops in May or beginning of 
June. Soil must, be packed firm over seed. _ 
300—NEW CORELESS. (72 days.) Not coreless but 
core is very small and same color as flesh, a rich 
golden orange. Smooth and uniform in size and 
color, and much sweeter than the ordinary varieties.
