CARROTS 
One ounce of seed will sow 300 feet of row, a packet 30 feet. 2 to 4 pounds will sow an acre. 
Refined modern varieties, such as Nantes, Tendersweet, Supreme Half Long, ete., 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. 
CHANTENAY. Special Strain. Long. Still the most popular carrot for general 
use and market. The roots grow 6 to 7 inches long, tapering 
slightly and are quite stump-rooted. The color is a rich orange and the roots are fine 
grained, smooth and of fine quality. 
We offer a very uniform strain which grows an inch longer than the usual Chantenay, 
which gives the carrots a very handsome shape and appearance. Commercial growers and 
home gardeners alike are delighted with the vigor, fine yield and good quality of this strain.

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 of the flesh is deep orange extending right through to the center. 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. 
For the home garden this variety is especially valuable as it succeeds under a wide 
range of conditions and does not require as deeply plowed soil as some of the longer kinds.

DANVERS HALF LONG. This is a very well known and dependable main crop or late 
carrot with roots about 7 or 8 inches long, tapering to the bottom. Its shape makes it 
easy to harvest and it 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.

HUTCHINSON. True New England Type. Each year we enjoy increased sales of our 
very superior stock of this popular New England variety. It is a large and very pro- 
ductive variety and is especially valuable for busheling. The roots are 8 to 10 inches long, 
nearly the same size the whole length, stump-rooted and of a bright orange color.

with red at the top. The fine quality has made it immensely popular. See photo and full

smooth and slightly tapering. They closely resemble Morse’s Bunching in shape. The color is deep 
orange and extends right to the center, and with a very small core. The tops are just right for bunching.
