KILGORE’S BRED-RITE IMPERATOR. (77 days.) This 
variety of carrot has been especially bred and developed to 
meet the increasing demand on the market for a longer car- 
rot. The roots range from 7 to 8 inches in length, with a should- 
er diameter of 114 to 1%4 inches. The roots are smooth, uni- 
formly tapered to a semi-blunt end, deep rich orange color, 
both exterior and interior with comparatively inconspicuous 
core. The flesh is of rich orange color, extending to the center 
of the root, with an indistinct core; fine grained, tender and of 
excellent quality. The tops are of medium size, but strong 
enough for good bunching. For shipping quality, attractive- 
ness and popularity in the market, Kilgore’s Bred-Rite Impera- 
tor is superior to other long-rooted varieties.

KILGORE’S IMPROVED RED CORE CHANTENAY. 
(72 days.) This is an improved type of Chantenay. The roots 
are tapered, less stump rooted, and slightly longer than the 
old Chantenay, averaging about 6 inches. The interior is solid 
orange colored without the usual lemon color in the core. The 
flesh is very tender and sweet, which with the excellent out- 
side color and shape combines to make this variety exception- 
ally valuable for the market. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; 1% lb. $1.25; 1 Ib. $4.50 
CORELESS OR NANTES. (70 days.) We have the true 
type, which is long and cylindrical, about 5% to 6% inches 
long and 1 to 1% inches thick, very stump rooted with a small 
rat tail. The color is clear orange-red and the core is rather 
undefined, being of the same color as the flesh so that it is 
called “Coreless.” The tops are small and short, but heavier 
than ordinary stocks of Nantes, and the root is very fine- 
grained, tender, delicate, sweet, and of highest edible quality. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 45c; %4 Ib. $1.40; 1 Ib. $5.00 
IMPROVED LONG ORANGE. (86 days.) Our stock is 
the true thick-shouldered strain of Long Orange, 134 to 2 inches 
thick at the shoulders, 10 to 12 inches long, and pointed or 
rather tapering in a straight line to the tip. The tops are 
rather large. A very popular variety in many sections of Flor- 
ida where a very smooth, attractive, reddish-colored, long root- 
ed carrot is desired.
