CARROTS 
Sow seed thinly in shallow drills early in the spring in rows not less than 12 in. apart. 
Make succession sowings every two weeks up to the early part of July. When well started, 
thin the small early varieties to stand 2 in. apart in the row and the larger later varieties 
from 3 to 4 in. A rich, mellow, deeply worked soil gives the finest carrots. Cultivate 
throughout the season to insure smooth straight roots. For winter storing, sow about the 
middle of June, which will make full size roots before cold weather sets in. 1 pkt. of seed 
will sow 50 ft. of row; 1 oz. 200 ft. 3 lbs. for one acre.
