CHANTENAY 
Tops medium size; necks small; roots tapering slight¬ 
ly, but uniformly stump-rooted and smooth; color, deep 
orange; flesh very crisp and tender. Although this is a 
medium early sort, it furnishes roots of usable size as 
early as any, is a heavy cropper, and is undoubtedly one 
of the best for both the market and private garden, 
while its productiveness makes it desirable as a field sort. 
Price, 5 cts. pkt.; 10 cts. oz.
