321 ROYAL CHANTENAY. (New) Smooth, Blocky Roots. 
70 days. For heavy yields of large smooth carrots, plant this new 
strain. It closely resembles the popular Red Cored Chantenay but 
grows about an inch longer and is more cylindrical. The added length 
gives somewhat greater tonnage per acre and the lack of taper means 
less waste in commercial processing. 
Ideal for canners, freezers and soup companies, it is an excellent 
high-quality garden carrot also, particularly on heavier soils where the 
larger carrots do not do well. Deep orange-red color throughout, fine- 
grained, tender and sweet-flavored. Large, strong tops. 
Pkt. 15c; 4 Oz. 35c; Oz. 60c; 14 Lb. $1.30; 14 Lb. $1.90. 
320 RED CORED CHANTENAY. Large—Fine Quality. 
70 days. This has long been the outstanding strain for commercial 
processing. Its high quality, uniform deep color and heavy yield make 
it ideal for this purpose. The carrots have a short, smooth blocky 
shape, tapering to an abrupt stump end, and the fine color extends 
right through to the center. On both muck and upland, it is an excel- 
lent yielder and fine for home use also. Easy to grow, consistently 
tender and fine-grained, one of the best for freezing.

305 CHANTENAY. Special Strain. Long. 70 days. Popular for both home 
use and market, this is a vigorous, heavy-yielding, all-purpose carrot 
that is widely adapted. The roots grow 6 to 7 inches long, somewhat 
tapering and quite stump-rooted. The color is a good orange and the 
roots are fine grained, smooth and of very good quality. 
We offer a very uniform strain which grows longer than the original 
Chantenay or Red Cored, and this gives the carrots a more handsome 
shape and appearance.

325 TENDERSWEET. The Sweetest Kind. 
75 days. Tendersweet has a richness and quality of flavor which we 
have found in no other variety. People who do not care for ordinary 
carrots are often very enthusiastic about Tendersweet, and most home 
gardeners who have tried it will never go without it in their gardens. 
Even when they have grown very large, these carrots are better- 
flavored than any other kind and for this reason they are ideal for 
storing to eat in the winter. These large fine textured carrots are an 
attractive deep orange throughout and practically coreless. Tender- 
sweet carrot is unusual in appearance, as the outer skin is of deep 
orange color tinged with red. See photo on page 3.

308 DANVERS HALF LONG. Red Cored Strain. 75 days. A superior strain 
of this well-known and dependable carrot. The color is bright orange 
throughout and the roots grow 7 or 8 inches long with thick shoulders 
and a distinctly tapered shape. A heavy yielder. d

Carrots may be used anytime after they are half grown and are at their 
best when grown on loose deep soil that is not compacted. Young 
carrots are more tender and sweet for home use and several sowings 
should be made throughout the season from early spring until mid- 
summer. Nantes and Tendersweet are best for home gardens. For fall 
use and storage sow in July or early August. Fine for quick freezing too. 
315 NANTES, Long Strain. Early and Delicious. 
68 days. Its smooth handsome appearance and rich delicious flavor 
have made Nantes one of the most popular carrots grown today. It is 
early, reaching a usable size before most other kinds, and whether 
large or small it is tender, fine grained and sweet. Ideal for freezing. 
The roots of this long strain grow six or seven inches in length, 
cylindrical or slightly tapered and stump-rooted. The surface is smooth 
and they have a clear waxy look that is most attractive. The color is a 
rich deep orange and they have such a fine flavor and texture that they 
are wonderful to eat raw as well as cooked. 
Pkt. 15c; 4% oz. 35c; Oz. 60c; 14 Lb. $1.30; 4% Lb. $1.90. 
316 NANTES. Stump-Rooted. 68 days. This fine coreless strain of Nantes 
is slightly shorter than the long strain and is preferred by many 
growers. It has the same attractive cylindrical shape, fine color and 
smoothness, with small crowns and short tops. Its great advantage is 
the interior, which tends to have smaller cores, richer orange color and, 
in our opinion, even better eating quality than the long type. Very 
highly recommended.

309 GOLD SPIKE (New) Long, Slender and Attractive. 78 days. These 
extra long, slender roots are of the finest bunching type, the kind 
wanted by chain stores and for pre-packaging. They are smooth and 
nearly cylindrical with short, strong tops, smoothly rounded shoulders

widely-grown long bunching carrot, Imperator Long is just what the 
growers want. Long smooth and slender, the roots are slightly tapered 
to a pointed end, well-colored and of fine quality. The strong, heavy 
tops are excellent for bunching and it is a vigorous grower. Com- 
petes successfully with Western-grown carrots on our markets, and 
excellent for use where the soil can be deeply worked.
