Colorful Carrots Are Excellent When Cooked with Peas 
ARROTS 
Because of their value as a health-food, 
Carrots are gaining wider recognition. 
“Baby” Carrots have achieved a firm 
position as a vegetable delicacy. Our 
special strains are selected for uniformity 
of color, size, shape, tops, and season of 
maturity; also for sweetness and tender¬ 
ness, and even texture of the flesh, and 
especially for a minimum of “core.”
