Carrots 
CULTURE—One ounce for 100 feet of drill, 4 pounds for 
an acre. The carrot, like other root crops, delights in a 
rich, sandy loam, well tilled. For early crops, sow in spring, 
as soon as the ground is in good working order, say April 
or May; for late crops they may be sown any time from the 
middle of June to July. Sow one-half inch deep in rows 12 
inches apart, thinning out to 3 inches between the plants. 
As carrot seed is slow to germinate, extra precautions must 
be taken to firm the seed in the soil.
