Bill Tichenor used to work for the Seed Farms but now he is 
farming for himself and is making good growing beets, cabbage, 
sweet corn and carrots. Bill proudly displays a sample of his 
crop of Robson Long Chantenay carrots. 
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.

well known except among certain groups of our popu-

nut like flavor.
