Carrots, Imperator 

CARROTS 
The carrot is one of our most important vegeta- 
bles; from a dietetic standpoint it is particu- 
larly desirable for children as it is a rich 
source of vitamins A, B, and C. Also its yellow 
coloring matter, known as carotin, is very 
healthful. 
For garden purposes in the Bay Area, carrots 
may be sown any time. Sow the seed ¥2 inch 
deep in loose, well-prepared soil, preferably 
sandy, making rows 18 inches apart. Cultivate 
as soon as the plants are well established and 
thin to 2 or 4 inches in the row, according to 
the size of the variety. They grow to eating 
size in about 70 days. One ounce will sow over 
100 feet of row.

half-long stump-rooted variety; 5 or 6 inches

SWEET CORN 
Postpaid within the U. S. A. 
Corn is sensitive to frost and may rot in cold or 
wet ground. Sow the seed when the soil has 
become warm. It will mature in 80 to 100 days 
and may be planted until July in hills 2 by 3 
feet apart. Cover 8 or 10 seeds about 1 inch 
deep; thin out to 3 plants to a hill. For succession 
plant early sorts every two weeks until July 15. 
One pound will plant 100 hills. Every silk must 
receive a grain of pollen from the tassel if it is 
to form a kernel. Planting in several short rows 
insures better pollination.
