CARROTS 
Culture — The Carrot, whether used raw, fried, boiled or stewed, used alone or combined with other vegetable or 
meat is not surpassed in nutritious healthfulness by any vegetable. Plant Carrot seed from the time the soil can be 
worked in the spring till July, in 1- or 2-foot rows for hand cultivation or in 80-inch rows where a horse-drawn tool 
is used. Use 1 ounce of seed to 100 feet of row, 3 to 4 pounds to the acre, covering one-half inch deep and later thin to 
a 4-inch stand. Do not overlook the value of this crop as a stock food.
