ance. Roots bright orange, slender, cylindrical

CARROTS 
Sow late April through June, 14 oz. to 100 ft. of row 
Carrots develop roots quickly in deep, well pre- 
pared fine soil that does not bake hard or crust. 
Make first sowing in late April spacing seed quite 
thickly, and covering 4 to 1% inch deep. Thin out 
to stand 2 to 2% inches apart. As carrots are best 
when still small make several sowings. 
IF your soil is heavy, grow shorter root varieties, 
the long slim ones for deep loose soil.

Red Cored and Nantes.

garden. Do not cover celery for blanching in warm
