Planting Instructions Any garden soil will grow car- 
rots. For early crops sow as early in the spring as possible, 
and in rows 18 inches to 2 feet apart. Cover not more than 
44 inch deep. When the plants are about 3 to 4 inches high 
thin out to 2 inches apart for the small early varieties and 4 
inches apart for the late ones. Give them plenty of room. 
Keep them thoroughly hoed.

Danver’s Half Long 
No home garden would be complete without a 
goodly supply of carrots planted for a succession, 
which can be achieved both by planting at different 
dates and by a choice of varieties. 
Although light, sandy loam soils produce the 
smoothest and straightest carrots, all deep loam soils 
(except the heaviest clays) will produce satisfactory 
crops. Enormous yields are produced on muck soils. 
The home gardener is interested in growing the ten- 
der and, so far as possible, the coreless varieties. 
Carrots are remarkably free from insects and plant 
diseases. 
CARROTS FOR STOCK FEEDING 
Pkt., 10c; 1 oz., 20c; 14 Ib., 50c; postpaid. 
Large White or Belgian Grows one-third out 
of the ground. Roots pure white, green above the 
ground. Flesh rather coarse and used exclusively 
for stock feeding purposes. 
Large Yellow Belgian practically the same 
as above only the flesh is yellow. This is also a 
very good keeper. 
CAULIFLOWER 
Planting Instructions clean and thorough cul- 
tivation is absolutely essential to success with this 
very exacting vegetable. On heavy clay soils fre- 
quent cultivation, that creates a dust mulch, will 
often make up for an insufficient water supply. Hoe 
right close to the plants, giving shallow cultivation 
as they expand. The “heads,” to be kept white and 
tender, must be protected from the sun soon after 
they begin to form by tying the leaves together over 
them. The seed is sown in April for an early crop 
and in July for a fall crop. 
*Early Snowball No. 16 very early. Pro- 
duces a very large compact head which is snowy 
white, which forms quickly and will not discolor 
easily. Finest on the market. Days to maturity, 
55. Pkt., 25c; 4 oz., 80c; 1 oz., $1.50. 
*Mountain Snowball this variety is consid- 
ered one of the very best for outdoor culture. It 
will withstand weather conditions that are utterly 
ruinous to the Erfurt strains. Days to maturity, 
58. Pkt., 25c; Yo oz., 80c; 1 oz., $1.50.
