KILGORE’S IMPROVED RED CORED CHANTENAY. 
(75 days.) This is an improved type of Chantenay. The roots 
are tapered, less stump rooted, and slightly longer than the old 
Chantenay, averaging about 6 inches. The interior is solid 
orange colored without the usual lemon color in the core. The 
flesh is very tender and sweet, which with the excellent outside 
color and shape combines to make this variety exceptionally 
valuable for the market.

Kilgore’s Bred-Rite Imperator 
Developed to Meet the Need for a Better Market Type 
KILGORE’S RRED-RITE IMPERATOR. (92 days.) This 
variety of carrot has been especially bred and developed to meet 
the increasing demand on the market for a longer carrot with a 
broad shoulder. The roots range from TV 2 to 8 V 2 inches in 
length, with a shoulder diameter of 1% to 2 inches. The roots are 
smooth, uniformly tapered to a semi-blunt end, deep rich orange 
color, both exterior and interior with comparatively inconspicu¬ 
ous core. The flesh is of rich orange color, extending to the 
center of the root, with an indistinct core; fine grained, tender 
and of excellent quality. The tops are of medium size, but 
strong enough for good bunching. For shipping quality, attrac¬ 
tiveness and popularity in the market, Kilgore’s Imperator is 
superior to other long-rooted varieties. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; Mlb. 30c; 1 lb. $1.00. 
CORELESS OR NANTES. (90 days.) We have the true 
type, which is long and cylindrical, about 6 V 2 to 7 inches long 
and 1 to iy 2 inches thick, very stump-rooted with a small rat 
tail. The color is clear orange-red and the core is rather unde¬ 
fined, being of the same color as the flesh so that it is called 
“Coreless.” The tops are small and short, but heavier than 
ordinary stocks of Nantes, and the root is very fine-grained, ten¬ 
der, delicate and sweet, and of highest edible quality. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; Mlb. 30c; 1 lb. $1.00. 
IMPROVED LONG ORANGE. (90 days.) Our stock is the 
true thick-shouldered strain of Long Orange, 1% to 2 inches 
thick at the shoulders, 10 to 12 inches long, and pointed or 
rather tapering in a straight line to the tip. The tops are rather 
large. A very popular variety in many sections of Florida where 
a very smooth, attractive, reddish-colored, long rooted carrot is 
desired. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; Mlb. 25c; 1 lb. 90c.
