HOW TO GROW THEM. Carrots grow the best in deep, loose, 
fertile soil, although any good garden soil well worked as deep as 
possible, will produce Carrots. For the first crop, sow the seed in 
April as soon as the soil is warm and fit to work, then make suc- 
cessive plantings until August 1, the last for fall or winter use. 
Make the rows 12 to 15 inches apart; cover the seed 1 inch deep; 
then thin out the plants so they will stand 2 inches apart in the rows. 
One ounce will sow a row 100 feet long; 3 to 4 pounds to the acre 
in 2-foot rows or 6 to 8 pounds in rows 1 foot apart. 60 to 80 days.
