CARROTS 
CULTURE: A rich, sandy loam is best for good car- 
rot production, especially for the deep-rooted va- 
rieties which are hard to grow well in heavy clay 
soil. Sow as early in the Spring as the ground is fit 
to work, in rows 18 inches apart, and thin later to 
4 inches apart in the row. Should be well cultivated. 
May be sown successively for home garden, or in 
August for Fall use.
