CARROTS 
Refined modern varieties, such as Nantes, Tendersweet, Supreme Half 
Long, etc., are all so much finer in texture and of milder flavor that 
there is no comparison with the older kinds. Modern carrots are a really 
delicious vegetable eaten either cooked or raw. A few rows will supply all 
you want, as you can thin out the small ones for early use and let the rest 
grow for fall and winter. 
Carrots can be sown from early spring to the middle of summer. The 
earlier they are sown the larger the crop as a rule, but late sowings produce 
nice carrots for fall. 
Carrots for Fall. If Nantes (Coreless) Carrots are sown in August they 
will make carrots about the size of one’s finger for fall use. These are 
extremely delicious eaten raw or cooked whole with butter sauce. 
NANTES Coreless. Best for Home Gardens. Because of its fine 
~ quality this undoubtedly is the best carrot for the home 
garden, and it is a very popular kind as a topped carrot for market. 
The roots grow fully six inches long, the same size the whole length, 
with a smooth waxy look that makes them very attractive. The color is 
deep orange, and there is practically no core. This carrot is so sweet 
and tender that it is a great favorite for eating raw, as well as cooked.

quality, being sweet and fine grained. They are deep orange in color 
and with practically no core. It is an excellent kind for the home garden 
as well as for market.

market. variety. In type it closely resembles a refined Danvers Half

for general use and market. The roots grow 6 to 7 inches long, tapering 
slightly and are quite stump-rooted. The color is deep orange and the 
roots are fine grained, smooth and of fine quality. We offer a very uni- 
form strain which grows an inch longer than the usual Chantenay.

old strain of Chantenay and grows about 1 inch longer, being 7 to 8 
inches in length. This variety is valuable for stock feeding as well as 
for market. Very heavy yields are often obtained, a thousand bushels 
per acre being not at all unusual. Our stock is the most uniform 
obtainable.

TENDERSWEET. The Sweetest Kind. The sweetest and finest 
carrot we have ever eaten. It has a richness and 
quality of flavor which we have found in no other variety. People who 
do not care for ordinary carrots are often very enthusiastic about 
“Tendersweet.” 
The carrots are large and tapering, usually growing longer than 
Danvers Half Long. The flesh is very deep orange in color, fine in texture 
and practically “coreless.’”” Tendersweet carrot is unusual in appear- 
ance, as the outer skin is of deep orange color tinged with deep red. The 
cee are dark green with a very pronounced deep red coloring at the 
ase. 
The fine quality makes this an outstanding variety for the home 
garden and it is becoming more popular each year for market and 
roadside stands. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 80c; Lb. $2.50. 
RED CORED CHANTENAY. We have a very true stock of this fine 
variety which has become so popular with market gardeners, canners 
and home gardeners. 
The color is deep orange with a self-colored core. The quality is 
very fine. Because of the fine quality, uniform deep color, and high 
yield this variety is very popular with canners. The carrots are very 
smooth and but a little shorter than our Special Chantenay. This 
variety yields large crops and is grown considerably on muck. 
We strongly advise the use of this variety both in the home and 
commercial garden. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 44 Lb. 75ce; Lb. $2.10. 
PERFECTION. This excellent carrot is becoming increasingly popular 
for fall use, both in home and market garden. The carrots resemble 
Nantes in shape, but are nearly two inches longer. There is no “core’’ as 
the deep orange color extends right through to the center. The quality 
is very fine. Perfection requires a longer season to reach its full ma- 
turity than Nantes. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 90c; Lb. $3.00. 
HUTCHINSON. True New England Type. We are pleased to offer a 
true stock of this popular New England variety. It is large and very

inches long, nearly the same size the whole length, stump-rooted and 
of a bright orange color.
