One ounce will sow 
100 feet of row, 3 
to 4 Ibs. per acre. 
CULTURE —Car- 
rots will grow in any 
soil, but sandy deep 
loam is best. Sow as 
early as the ground 
can be worked, in 
rows 15 to 18 inches 
apart, covering 
about one-half inch. 
Plants should be 
thinned to two, 
three, or even four 
inches apart in the 
row. 
Stones, clods of soil or 
lumps of manure cause 
poor forked roots,and fail- 
ure to thin young plants 
leads to twisted inferior 
roots. Deeply prepared 
uniform friable soil pro- 
duces clean, well de- 
veloped roots.
