CARROTS 
One ounce of seed will sow 300 feet of row, a packet 30 feet; 2 to 4 pounds will sow an acre. 
Modern carrots are a really delicious vegetable eaten either cooked or raw. They are at 
their best before they are half grown, but Nantes and Tendersweet are so fine-textured and 
mild-flavored that they are still delicious even when they have grown much larger. Carrots 
grown in your garden have a more appetizing taste than those that are usually shipped 
into market and a few rows will supply all you want. 
Sow early in the spring and again a few weeks later and thin out the small ones to eat 
first, leaving the rest for fall and winter storage. For commercial use, early sowings produce 
the largest crops but later sowings give the best carrots in the 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. Use these small carrots for quick freezing too. 
305 CHANTENAY. Special Strain. Long. 
Still the most popular 
carrot for general use and market. The roots grow 
6 to 7 inches long, tapering slightly and are quite 
stump-rooted. The color is a rich orange and the 
roots are fine grained, smooth and of fine quality. 
We offer a very uniform strain which grows an 
inch longer than the usual Chantenay, and this 
gives the carrots a very handsome shape and 
appearance. Commercial growers and home 
gardeners alike are delighted with the vigor, fine 
yield and good quality of this strain.

320 RED CORED CHANTENAY. We have a very 
true stock of this fine variety which is popular with 
market gardeners, canners and home gardeners. 
The color of the flesh is deep orange extending 
right through to the center. The quality is very 
fine. Because of the fine quality, uniform deep 
color, and high yield this variety is very popular 
with canners. The carrots are very smooth and 
but a little shorter than our Special Chantenay. 
This variety yields large crops and is grown con- 
siderably on muck. 
For the home garden this variety is especially 
valuable as it succeeds under a wide range of con- 
ditions and does not require as deeply plowed soil 
as some of the longer kinds.
