Our Strains of Carrots Are the Best Obtainable 
CARROTS 
Sow seed early in the Spring in rows 12 to 30 inches apart. 
Cover seed with % to inch 
of soil and press gently. Thin plants to stand 2 to 3 inches apart. For a continuous supply 
sowings should be made every two weeks up to the early part of July. For nice, tender Carrots 
in the Fall or for Winter storing, the later sowings are advisable. 
Use a packet of seed to 
25 feet of row, 1 oz. to 100 feet, 3 to 4 lbs. to the acre. 
Early Nantes (Coreless). (70 days.) For 
quality, flavor, attractive appearance, it 
is one of the best; 6 in. long and perfectly 
cylindrical, being from 1 to 1) in. thick, 
the whole length ending abruptly in a 
small, thin tail. There is no ‘‘core,’’ the 
beautifully pure, orange-scarlet flesh ex- 
tends right through; valuable for home 
use. Its color, form and size make it a 
ready seller on the market. Pkt. 10c.,
