Sow seed early in the Spring in rows 12 to 30 inches apart. Cover seed with }4 to inch 
of soil and press gently. Thin plants to stand 2 to 3 inches apart. For a continuous supply 
sowings should be made every two weeks up to the early part of July. For nice, tender Carrots 
in the Fall or for Winter storing, the later sowings are advisable. 
Use a packet of seed to 
25 feet of row, 4 oz. to 100 feet, 3 to 4 Ibs. to the acre. 
Early Nantes (Coreless). (70 days.) For 
quality, flavor, attractive appearance, it 
is one of the best; 6 in. long and perfectly 
cylindrical, being from 1 to 1} in. thick, 
the whole length ending abruptly in a 
small, thin tail. There is no ‘‘core,” the 
beautifully pure, orange-scarlet flesh ex- 
tends right through; valuable for home 
use. Its color, form and size make it a 
ready seller on the market. Pkt. 10c., 
oz. 40c., 14 |b. 90c., lb. $3.00. 
Guerande, or Oxheart. Stump-rooted es- 
pecially adapted to shallow soil. Pkt. 10c.,

Danvers Half-Long. (Special.) Well- 
known favorite Carrot on account of its 
great productiveness and adaptability to 
all soils and sections. Commercial crops 
have yielded 25 to 30 tons per acre. Roots 
are half-long, almost cylindrical, and under 
ordinary culture grow 6 to 7 in. long and 
184 in. thick at shoulder, tapering gradu- 
ally towards the stump end. If grown in 
deeply prepared soil, roots will measure 
7 to 7% in. long and 2 to 2% in. at the 
shoulder. Skin is rich, deep orange-red; 
flesh is bright orange, fine-grained, sweet 
and tender. Much more easily harvested 
than the long types, and an excellent 
variety for home and market, shipping or 
storing for Winter use. Pkt. 10c., oz. 40c.,

apart and 6 inches apart in rows. The 
beds should be kept well weeded and an occa- 
sional soaking with water in dry weather will 
do the plants good. 
Cornell No. &. Very much like No. 19 but 
the stalks are a little heavier and not as 
sharply ribbed. Makes a somewhat heavier 
growth than Cornell No3 19 and shows a 
little fuller heart. This is a specially good

sweet. This was developed as a bunching
