CHINESE or CELERY CABBAGE—(Continued) 
CHIHILI—Imported Strain — 
We are again able to offer this superior strain of Chinese Cabbage to our 
customers. Early, dependable and sure heading. 
N.B. As a rule Chinese Cabbage is not a success if transplanted. To get a thin stand mix the 
Chinese Cabbage with equal parts of rape or any seed of similar size that has first been thoroughly 
baked. 
CARDOON 
LARGE SMOOTH 
The stalks require blanching and are raised very much like celery. Ready for 
use in late fall and winter. 
Tender and richly flavored, blanches easily and makes an attractive appearance. 
CARROTS 
One packet will sow 25 feet of row; one 
ounce 200 feet; 2 to 3 lbs. will sow an 
acre. 
The carrot is one of the most wholesome and 
nutritious of our garden roots and deserves to 
be more extensively used both for culinary and 
stock feeding purposes. They require about the 
same simple care as beets. Freshly manured soil 
often causes divided roots and it is therefore 
best to plant in soil that has been richly fer- 
tilized the previous season. Plant the seed 44 
inch deep in loose well prepared soil in rows 
16 to 24 inches apart. Cultivate as soon as the 
plants are well established and thin to 2 or 4 
inches in the row according to the size of the 
variety. Plantings may be made from early 
spring to June 15th. For winter storage the 
later date is advisable. 
DANVERS HALF LONG 
Very productive and popular tor 
home and market garden. Also 
valuable for stock feeding and asa 
shipping carrot. Roots are longer 
and more tapering than the Chan- 
tenay and about 5 days later in 
LONG CHANTENAY CARROT maturity.
