THE NEBRASKA SEED CO., OMAHA. NEBRASKA 
Chantenay 
CARROT 
Moehre. Garotte. 
Culture—For successful cultivation, soil should be 
light (sandy soil is the best) and deeply tilled. For an 
early crop the seed should be sown as early as the 
ground can be properly worked. For late crops it may 
be sown until about the middle of June. 
EARLY CHANTENAY. Has no equal as a bunching 
carrot. The roots are uniformly smooth, regular and 
perfect in shape. The flesh is of a beautiful deep 
orange, fine in texture, solid, but tender, and very 
sweet, 4 to 5 inches long. 72 days. 
CORELESS. A fine half-long early carrot. Medium 
sized, even shaped and productive. Blunt base and 
small tap root. Small, fine tops and a nice, smooth 
skin. The flesh is a rich orange red, finely grained and 
very free from the woody yellow heart or core found 
in most red fleshed carrots. 514 to 7 inches long. 
70 days. 
GUERANDE OR OXHEART. A variety with short, 
thick roots, the diameter often exceeding the length. 
Color bright orange, sweet and fine grained, good for 
table or stock. 4 to 5 inches long. 72 days. 
DANVERS. There is no variety grown which will 
produce as much to the acre, with a minimum length of 
root, as this one. Under proper conditions of the soil 
and cultivation, it may reasonably be expected to pro¬ 
duce, which it has done, 25 to 30 tons per acre. It is 
of medium lengih and heavy at the neck, but pointed 
and quite smooth, color a rich orange. 6 to 8 inches 
long. 75 days. 
EARLY SCARLET HORN STUMP-ROOTED. A fine 
variety of medium size; color scarlet; fine flavor. 3 
inches long. 65 days. 
IMPROVED LONG ORANGE. A well known stand¬ 
ard sort, roots long, thickest near the crown, tapering 
regularly to a point; color deep orange; suitable for the 
table and main field crop. 11 to 12 inches long. 88 
days. 
Carrots: Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; ’A lb. 35c; 1 lb. $1.10. 
CARROTS for Stock Feeding 
LARGE WHITE BELGIAN. Grows a third or more 
above the surface. Roots will average two inches in 
diameter at the shoulder and a foot or more in length. 
Are easily pulled in harvesting and do not have to be 
dug out like most long-rooted sorts. Flesh and skin 
pure white, tinged with green in upper portion grow¬ 
ing above the soil. 
LARGE ORANGE BELGIAN. This is similar to the 
preceding variety in growth and form, but flesh and 
skin of the portion growing below the soil are of a pale 
orange coloring. 
Early Snowball 
CAULIFLOWER 
Chou Fleur. Coliflor. 
Culture—Cauliflower needs a rich soil for its best 
development, enjoys a cool climate and plenty of mois¬ 
ture, and consequently, it grows best in the spring 
and early summer. Its culture is the same as that for 
early Cabbage, making sure that the plants are well 
developed, stocky and healthy before being set out. 
The heads should be blanched by drawing the inside 
leaves over them after they are well developed. 
EARLY SNOWBALL. This is the most generally 
grown and useful outdoor Cauliflower for this climate. 
Sown early and well cared for, it will produce an ex¬ 
cellent early crop of uniformly white heads of fine size, 
which remain firm and solid for a long time. 55 days. 
Cauliflower: Pkt. 5c; V4 oz. 50c; oz. $1.50. 
COLLARDS 
GEORGIA, SOUTHERN OR CREOLE. This vege¬ 
table develops a loose-leaved head. It grows 2 or 3 feet 
high and produces large, light green leaves on rather 
long stems. A frost, if not too severe, will improve 
the crop. 
Collards: Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c.
