Cultural Directions. —1 oz. for 100 feet of drill, 4 pounds for aD

The carrot, like other root crops, delights in a rich, sandy loam,

is in good working order, say April or May; for late crops they may 
be sown any time from the middle of June to July. Sow one-haif 
inch deep in rows 12 inches apart, thinning out to three inches between 
the plants. As Carrot seed is slow to germinate, extra precautions 
must be taken to firm the seed in the soil.
