15th. Transplant into flats and put out in field as soon 
as danger of hard freezing is over. For late crop, sow 
seed out-of-doors the middle of May and transplant 
into field about July Ist. As soon as heads begin to 
form, draw the leaves over and tie them together for 
protection against rain and sun. 
SUPER SNOWBALL: 57 days. A strain of Snowball

To produce long smooth carrots, the soil must be 
loose, free from stones and hard lumps, and worked 
deep. Carrot seed is small and should be sown shallow. 
preferably after a rain. Sow thinly as the carrots 
should be thinned to 2 to 3 inches. Carrots may be 
sown from early in the spring to July 15th. 
*NANTES: 68 days. For the home garden and mar- 
kets where quality counts. we recommend Nantes. 
The roots are 6 to 7 inches long, 114 inches thick at 
top and almost the same diameter the whole length. 
Color of flesh bright orange with a very inconspicuous 
core. The top is brittle and so does not bunch well.

rots show a red core. Pkt. 15 cts.; oz. 35 cts.;
