CULTURE—While a sandy loam is the best soil for the Carrot, any good land, if thoroughly and deeply 
worked, will produce satisfactory crops. When possible to do so, it is advisable to sow as early in the spring 
as the ground is fit to work. For field culture prepare the ground thoroughly and sow in drills 18 to 
20 inches apart, using 2 to 3 lbs. of seed to the acre. Cover % to 1 inch deep and see to it that the 
soil is pressed firmly above the seed. Thin the smal ler table sort to 5 or 8 plants to the foot and the 
field varieties 4 to 6 inches apart in the row. 1 oz. to 100 ft. row. 4 or 5 lbs. per acre.
