CARROTS 
FOR STOCK FEEDING 
All Prices Postpaid Unless Otherwise Noted 
Carrots make a healthy and desirable food for 
stock, and every stock owner should plant them 
liberally, so as to give his stock an occasional feed 
of carrots through the winter as an alternative food 
which is of decided benefit. Plant in March, April 
or May—the earlier the better—at the rate of 2 to 
4 pounds per acre.

sort for garden use and for stock. Roots tapered

roots broken off, and the main roots shortened to a 
uniform length of about 9 inches. They are then placed 
upright 2 inches apart in a trench about 18 inches 
deep.
