Chantenay, Oregon (Long Type). Flesh is 
a deep golden orange color, always 
smooth and fine in texture, very tender. 
Excellent bunching variety and pre- 
ferred by market growers. Medium 
early. 72 days. 
Chantenay, Red Core. A fine carrot. 
Flesh tender and sweet, reddish orange 
in color with the core indistinct and of 
about the same color as the surrounding 
flesh. Suitable for canning and table use. 
72 days. 
Danvers Half Long. Red core. The roots 
are a rich dark orange and because of its 
symmetrical shape—long and pointed—it 
makes an excellent bunching variety. It 
has proved over a period of years to be 
the most popular carrot, both with the 
grower and the shipper. Mature in about 
75 days. 
Improved Imperator. This carrot grows 
to a length of 7-8 inches with a shoulder 
diameter of 1144 to 1% inches, making a 
smooth crown. Does not have undesir- 
able side shoots; has a fine texture, and 
is good and sweet. Deep orange. In all 
respects it is very attractive for shipping 
purposes. 77 days. 
Nantes Coreless. Excellent for forcing, 
as well as for home and market garden 
use. Tops very small. Roots bright 
orange, cylindrical, blunt tipped. Flesh 
reddish orange, crisp, tender and of very 
delicate flavor. Practically coreless. 68 
days. 
Stock Carrots 
Orange Belgian. A very productive va- 
riety, with roots measuring 20 inches 
long. They are broad at the shoulder, 
and gradually taper to a fine point. The 
skin below the ground is a light orange, 
but above the soil surface it is green. 
Will yield heavily, particularly on good 
deep soil. 
White Belgian. A late variety, an excel- 
lent keeper and very productive. Princi- 
pally grown as stock feed, since it will 
yield as much as 40 tons per acre. Roots 
are 7 to 8 inches long, 3 inches across at 
the top, tapered and pointed.

per acre 
Plant in rich, warm soil, in hills, 2 to 3 
feet apart, in rows 3 feet apart for early

May and continue fortnightly up to 
about the middle of July. Corn should be 
planted in blocks of at least 4 rows. 
Tendermost (Hybrid). Matures in 80 days. 
Of all the hybrids developed, this is the 
most tender. You'll love its giant-size 
kernels with their sugary-sweet corn 
goodness, and delightfully tender hull. 
Ears average about nine inches in length, 
with 14 to 16 rows of amazingly regular 
kernels. Tendermost stays sweet and 
tender on the stalk for nearly two weeks 
at a time. It’s easy growing, high-yield- 
ing ...and the best yet for quality eat- 
ing, canning and freezing. Pkt. 15e; % 
Ib. 50c; Ib. 90c. 
Alphagold Bantam (Hybrid). Matures in 
60 days. If you want to lead your neigh- 
borhood with the best quality early sweet 
corn, plant Alphagold Bantam. The 
rapid growth of this extra early yellow 
hybrid will amaze you. Yields well, ears 
are about 7 inches long and tips are well 
filled. Resistant to ear worms. Pkt. 15¢; 
14 Ib. 50c; Ib. 90c. 

Silver Cross Bantam. 
This is sweet corn that has all the ten- 
derness, succulence, and real corn fla- 
(80 to 86 days.) 
vor of the best yellow corn. Yet it’s 
white! It was derived from Golden 
Cross Bantam, which it resembles in 
many respects. But the stalks are taller 
and the ears are longer and larger. But, 
above all, you like its flavor. First choice 
for quality canning and freezing! (Fz.) 
Golden Cross Bantam (Hybrid). Matures 
in 90 days. Still a favorite. The original 
hybrid variety. Twelve rows to the ear. 
Stalks sturdy and productive. Better 
adapted for growing under varied condi- 
tions. Pkt. 10c; % Ib. 40c; Ib. 70ce. 
Golden Bantam. Matures in 78 days. 
This is the old open-pollinated variety. 
Many still prefer it to the Hybrid varie- 
ties, but it’s yield is much less per acre 
and worms are a problem which is not 
the case with Hybrid varieties. Pkt. 10¢; 
Y% Ib. 30e; Ib. 50c. 
Hybrid Golden Hummer. Matures in 65 
to 70 days. Be among the first to have 
yellow sweet corn by planting Hybrid 
Golden Hummer. It has large, attractive 
ears about 8 in. long with 12 even rows 
of tender sweet kernels. It has high 
yield and uniform growth. Very similar 
to Tendergold in growing and eating 
characteristics ... but much earlier. Try 
some.
