Carrots 
Carrots are not alone one of the most 
wholesome of foods, supplying precious vita- 
mines, but wlien half grown are one of the 
greatest delicacies possible to place on the 
table. Persons who say they do not like Car¬ 
rots usually will be found never to have 
tried them when young. The seeds are very 
slow to germinate and they should be. marked 
in the row with radishes or some other 
quickly maturing crop which will lie har¬ 
vested before the Carrots Crowd. Mellow 
soil which will not bake over the seeds and 
will not harden in midsummer is the kind 
Carrots like. Plant in rows IS to 24 inches 
apart and thin to 3 or 4 inches.
