. SCHELL, Inc., QUALITY SEEDS, HARRISBURG, PENNA. 
CARROTS 
Grow in popularity every year as a favorite 
food. They may be eaten raw or in salads, 
cooked in stews or soups, baked, fried or 
boiled. Grow more of them. 
HOW TO GROW THEM.—Carrots grow the best in deep, loose, fertile soil, although any 
good garden soil well worked will produce Carrots. Wizard Brand Pulverized Sheep Manure is 
good to work in the soil (we have it). If your soil is rather heavy or hard, plant Early Scarlet 
Horn. For the first crop, sow the seed in April as soon as the soil is warm and fit to work, then 
make successive plantings until August 1, the last for fall or winter use. Make the rows 12 to 
15 inches apart; cover the seed y 2 inch deep; then thin out the plants so they will stand 3 to 4 
inches apart in the rows. One ounce will sow a row 100 feet long; 3 to 4 pounds to the acre.
