orange color, a very heavy yielder and splendid 
keeper. The roots grow about 8 inches long, taper 
uniformly to a .blunt point. The flesh is deep 
orange red, tender and of good quality. It is a 
first class Carrot for all kinds of soil, valuable 
for both table use and stock. Grown extensively 
by market gardeners for bunching and makes a 
handsome appearance on the market. We have an 
extra fine strain of this favorite sort which gives 
the greatest satisfaction to our customers.

very broad and heavy at the shoulder and are therefore easily

ference and 25 to 50 tons per acre is not an extravagant state¬ 
ment as to yields. Our own growth, choicest Northern home¬
