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, 2% in. at shoulder, tapered stump- 
rooted, deep reddish-orange skin, core deep orange, almost 
same color as flesh; fine grained, sweet and tender. 4 lb.,
