ANDREWS-BURRI SEED ANNUAL AND PRICE LIST 

cu LTURE— The carrot 
will do well in any good, well- 
worked soil. For early use, 
sow the seed when the apple 
is in bloom, in rows 15 
inches apart, and when 2 
inches high thin out so that 
the plants stand 4 inches 
apart in the row. For fall 
and winter use, sow the seed 
from the 1st to 15th of June. 
Sow one ounce of seed to 100 
feet of drill, 2 to 3 pounds to 
acre. 
CHANTENAY SPE- 
CIAL (Long Type) — 
Days to maturity, 55-70. 
This variety, introduced 
by the great French firm 
of Vilmorin-Andrieux & 
Cie., forty years ago, is 
still the leading commer- 
cial carrot in the United 
States. It has held its 
great popularity on merit 
alone, for it has a beau- 
tiful appearance and ex- 
cellent table quality. Its 
length will average from 
5 to 6 inches and its 
color is a rich orange-red. In shape the root is 
of great uniformity, of the half-long type, 
smooth and free from side rootlets. Our stock 
has been finely bred and may be planted with 
absolute confidence by market gardeners, 
truckers and ranchmen. Our sales of this va- 
riety have now reached enormous proportions, 
and this could not have been possible had we 
not had an extremely fine strain. If you have 
not tried our Chantenay, do not fail to do so. 
DANVERS HALF LONG—A handsome, cyl- 
indrical shaped carrot of good size and stump- 
rooted. It differs from Chantenay in that it is 
slightly longer in reaching maturity and will 
average an inch or so more in length. Our true 
type averages 614 to 7 inches in length, taper- 
ing uniformly to a blunt point. The roots are 
smooth and very attractive, of rich, deep 
orange color, with crisp, sweet, tender flesh. A 
popular variety for the shipper, also splendid 
for the table. 
XXX CORELESS—This variety is by far the 
earliest of its type, but its earliness does not 
affect in any way its size or quality. It is a half- 
long, cylindrical, blunt-pointed variety, with 
a very small tap-root and small, fine top. The 
shape and size are extremely uniform, averag- 
ing 6 to 7 inches in length and 114 inches in 
diameter, clean-skinned, smooth and _ easily 
pulled. The flesh is very fine-grained, absolutely 
without any woody heart or core, and entirely 
free from stringiness and coarseness. Color of 
flesh is rich red-orange, and flavor finest.

maturity are 114 to 114 by 8 inches in size, al- 
most cylindrical with rounded shoulders, and 
are well stumped. Developed as a bunching carrot for 
long distance shipping. Does well in North and should 
be used more by market growers.

frame culture and one of the best for home garden and 
early market. Tops small. Roots bright orange; 6-7 
inches long, 1% inches thick; cylindrical; stump-rooted.

spicuous. Similar to much that is offered under the
