Chantenay Red-Cored—70 days. We believe this strain of 
seed of ours is as good or a little better than others on the 
market. Certainly any strain of carrot that stands at the top 
of the list in trials throughout this part of the country, both 
on muck and on hard land, year after year is a pretty good 
strain to tie to. The roots are a little smoother, more uni- 
formly alike and have better flesh color than most strains. 
The roots are 6 in. long, 244 in. at shoulder, tapered stump- 
rooted, deep reddish-orange skin, core deep orange, almost 
same color as flesh; fine grained, sweet and tender. 4 Ib.,

Utah 10-B—This green variety has shown up well for the 
past two years on the muck in this state. Sometimes it has 
rated even better than No. 15. Our eriticsm of 10-B as we 
saw it in several trials this year, was the tendency to sucker 
and to sprawl out. Last year this habit was not noticeable. 
The season must have a lot to do with it. No. 10-B is ready to 
harvest about the same time as No. 15, grows 26 to 28 inches 
high, medium green foliage, edible stems 8 to 10 inches long, 
rounded, thick and waxy, tender, crisp and of excellent 
quality. Oz., 95c; 44 lb., $3.45= Ib. $2.00;
