For Critical Market Gardeners and 
Private Planters—The Earliest and 
Sweetest of All Table Carrots 
Used Annually by the Largest Planters 
Danvers carrots have been the standard for over 
fifty years and we need not try to offer any proofs 
as to their popularity. Carrot-breeding - is in about 
•the same class as stock-breeding, and if same is 
not kept true, will deteriorate very quickly. We 
have endeavored to do more than keep the old 
parent sort true, and have actually bred up the qual¬ 
ity of Danvers Carrot to such perfection that the 
old parent sort would be ashamed of itself. To dis¬ 
tinguish our sort from others, we have termed our 
strain Condon’s Select Danvers. Same has been bred 
for quality and for yield and on a given acreage it 
will produce a larger crop of marketable roots than 
any other kind. The roots are of a rich orange color, 
to all classes of soil. Packet, 10 cts.; ounce, 20 cts.; 
*4 lb., 45 cts.; % lb., 70 cts.; lb., $1.25; 2 lbs., $2.25; 
5 lbs., $5.25, postpaid.

“I have grown and marketed Carrots for 25 
years, but I have never had any that were as 
tender and sweet and sell so readily as your 
Private Strain of Select Danvers.”

Gentlemen: The Carrot Seeds we bought from 
you were the best Carrots we ever raised. They 
were just like the picture showed. We bought 
the same Seed from our local Seed house; they 
weren’t near as good. We will buy all our Seed 
from you from now on.
