GURNEY’S SWEET AND TENDER CARROTS 
An Acre of Carrots 
Fed to Poultry 
Means a Winter Income 
• RED CORED EARLY CHANTENAY 
We have discarded the ordinary early Chan- 
tenay and list only the red cored. This is a better 
carrot in every way, much smaller cored, and the 
bright orange flesh is fine grained, tender, and 
sweet. 
It is medium early, maturing in about 60 
days. This sort is very productive and easy to 
harvest. The root is smooth, deep orange-red, 
uniformly stumped but slightly tapered, and 
about 514 inches long. This carrot is con¬ 
sidered by the market gardeners as one of the 
very best for early use. Pkt., 5c; oz., 12c; 
14 lb., 30c; 1 lb., 90c; 5 lbs., $4.25 Postpaid. 
• GURNEY’S GOLD LUMP 
These extra early carrots should be pulled 
when they are about two inches through. They 
are nearly round and a bunch of carrots, each 
about the size and shape of a small apple, are 
very attractive. 
This new carrot is of French origin, is the 
brightest golden color, and matures earlier than 
any other carrot grown. Market gardeners can 
safely discard all other extra earlies and plant 
largely of this. It is very uniform in size and color, 
consequently, a money-saver, as there are no 
culls to throw out. Pkt., 7c; oz., 15c; !4 lb., 
30c; 14 lb., 55c; 1 lb., 95c. 
CULTURE: Sow the seed in drills anytime 
from early Spring to July. Cover seeds 
to 1 in. deep, and press soil about seeds. 
Thin plants so they will be 2 to 6 in. apart. 
Make the rows 12 to 30 in. apart. Use 1 oz. 
to 200 ft.; 3 lbs. to the acre. Ready for 
use in 45 to 75 days.

Just how true the slogan “eat carrots for 
your complexion” is I don’t know; however, I 
do know that Gurney’s New Coreless Carrot 
is a favorite with.all those who have grown this 
wonderful new carrot. 
This is bound to become one of the most pop¬ 
ular of the table carrots. In quality it is unsur¬ 
passed. Color is a pure orange scarlet and the 
core undefined. Most varieties of carrots have a 
well defined and tough core. The size is about 
614 to 7 inches long and 114 inches thick; same 
size from top to bottom. The top is very small 
and has a slightly yellow crown. You will find 
this, I believe, the most desirable of the table 
carrots. Pkt., 8c; oz., 15c; !4 lb., 35c; 1 lb., 
$1.05; 5 lbs., $4.50 Postpaid. 
• GURNEY’S PIE CARROT 
We do not suppose you have ever made or 
eaten a carrot pie; ve^ry few people know that 
carrots are good for pie purposes and probably 
none of you have known that any particular 
variety or kind of carrot would make a better 
pie than another. Carrots for pie purposes are 
at least equal to pumpkins, and the pie resembles 
in flavor the pumpkin pie. It is much more 
delicious and on account of your being able to 
use them long before the pumpkins are ripe you 
have almost a continuous season of carrot pie, 
commencing with the carrots when they are 
about one inch through, and using them until 
the old carrots are gone in the spring. Make the 
carrot pie just as you would pumpkin pie, and 
you will be surprised at the deliciousness of it. 
This particular carrot is better than any other 
variety for that purpose. Pkt., 7c; oz., 15c; 
14 lb., 30c; 14 lb., 55c; 1 lb., 95c. 
• OXHEART 
Guerande, or Oxheart. Tops small for the 
size of the roots which are comparatively short, 
but often reach a diameter of five inches, ter¬ 
minating abruptly in a small tap root. Flesh 
bright orange, fine grained and sweet. This 
variety is especially desirable for soil so hard 
and stiff that longer rooted sorts would not 
thrive in it. When young, excellent for table use, 
and when mature equally good for stock. Pkt., 
5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 25c; 1 lb., 80c; 5 lbs., $3.75 
Postpaid.
