The carrot is a healthy . nutritious food for the family or for the stock. While we 
recommend the Yellow Mangel for cows, carrots are the best for horses, and they are 
especially valuable to feed poultry in winter, giving you great returns in the increased 
egg production. Peas and carrots make the cheapest and best food for laying hens. Don’t 
fail to grow plenty of carrots. Easily grown, if you use our seed, which has always 
given great satisfaction.
