Burpee’s CARROTS. 
May be used at different stages of growth but are at their best if eaten when 
half grown or smaller. There are varied sizes and shapes to suit your purposes 
as well as soil conditions; Burpee’s Oxheart with its stocky, heart-shaped roots 
especially suited for shallow or heavy soils to Burpee’s Improved Long Orange 
for deep mellow soils—the popular medium length carrot for all general pur- 
poses is Burpee’s Goldinhart. There are many ways to use carrots —cook alone, 
use in soups, stews, chowders, with other vegetables or with roasts; glazed car- 
rots with green peas are ever popular. Raw carrots may be served as a relish 
when chilled and cut lengthwise in slender strips; splendid when shredded 
and used in salads and a refreshing appetizer when served as chilled juice.
