S. & W. Co.’s Rubicore. Rubicore is a 
fme-flavored, new, early, half-long Carrot. 
It is a deep orange-red, and the small heart 
or core is almost the same color, which it 
retains in cooking, and it is as tender and 
sweet as the root itself. Rubicore is thus 
as “coreless” as a Carrot can be. The roots 
are to 6 inches long, 2 to 23 ^ inches at 
the shoulder, narrowing gradually to a 
blunt end. They are refined in appearance, 
smooth and free from eyes, and uniform 
in size, shape, and color. The tops are 
medium small, but large enough to bunch.

the culinary standpoint. Pkt. 15 cts., oz.
