BURPEE’S CARROTS — 
May be used at different stages of growth but are at their best if eaten when half grown 
or smaller. There are varied sizes and shapes to suit your purposes as well as soil conditions; 
Burpee’s Oxheart with its stocky, heart-shaped roots especially suited for shallow or heavy 
soils to Burpee’s Improved Long Orange for deep mellow soils—the popular medium length 
carrot for general purposes is Burpee’s Goldinhart. There are many ways to use carrots— 
cook alone, use in soups, stews, chowders with other vegetables or cook with roasts. Raw 
carrots may be served as a relish when chilled and cut lengthwise in slender strips; splendid 
when shredded and used in salads and a refreshing appetizer when served as chilled juice.
