CARROTS 
One ounce of seed will sow 300 feet of row, a packet 30 feet, 2 to 4 pounds will sow an acre. 


Refined modern varieties, such as Nantes, Tendersweet, 
Supreme Half Long, etc., are all so much finer in texture 
and of milder flavor that there is no comparison with the 
older kinds. Modern carrots are a really delicious vege- 
table eaten either cooked or raw. A few rows will supply 
all you want, as you can thin out the small ones for early 
use and let the rest grow for fall and winter. 
Carrots can be sown from early spring to the middle of 
summer. The earlier they are sown the larger the crop as 
a rule, but late sowings produce nice carrots for fall. 
Carrots for Fall. If Nantes (Coreless) Carrots are sown 
in August they will make carrots about the size of one’s 
finger for fall use. These are extremely delicious eaten 
raw or cooked whole with butter sauce. 
315 NANTES. Coreless. One of the very best 
carrots grown. The exceptionally 
fine quality and smooth attractive shape have made 
it a universal favorite for both home use and market. 
Nantes is ready to use earlier than any other kind, 
and it has a delicious flavor combined with a sweet 
melting tenderness that delights everyone who tries 
them. See photo and full description on page 3.

316 NANTES. Strong Top Strain. (New). This fine 
coreless strain of Nantes has been especially bred for 
stronger tops so that they do not break off as easily 
when pulled for bunching. The tops are no larger but 
they are heavier at the crown, a distinct advantage 
for both market and home gardeners. 
The roots are of the same fine type, smooth and 
attractive and the quality is just as good in every way. 
This strain has even better colored roots than the regu- 
lar and we recommend it highly.
