Agricultural,
Carrots and their Cultivation.

Aswinter feed for cattle and horses in con-
naction with hay, carrots are very valuable
and should be grown by every farmer who
has stock to consume them. On land
properly prepared, their cultivation is at
tended with little trouble, and the return
they yield fully as profitable as that ofany
other product of the farm. The good in
fuonce of the carrot upon the health and
thrift of animals fed in part upon them,
has frequently been remarked upon, and
we now propose to add a few hints upon
the best mode Of cultivation.
Tho carrot, having a long tap root requi-
rers deep mellow soilT''ofa sandy or loamy
oharactsC though it will grow on a clay soil,
i It is VIII drained and manured, and large
crops, have been produced in nsuch situations.
The ground shall be comp paratively free
from stones, as these obstruct the free
growth Of the roots. 1t should be ploughed
deeply-the deeper roots the better-as
the carrot will 60 down as far as the soil is
mellow, if it is as rich as it should be to sus-
taina continued and vigorous growth. 1t
should be manurcd with at least thirty
loads of compost or wcIl-rotted stable, man.
ure, per acre, and very thoroughly ploughod
and narrowed, so as to be mellow as well
as rich, and then, ifpropcrly tended, good
crop of this valuable root will be returned
Sward land, long seeded, and with
deep fertile soil, is well suited to the pro-
duction of carrots. Manure freely upon
the sod, plough deeply and neatly, and
then top dress with liberal application of
compast manures. Mix this intimately
with the surface soil, by means of a gang,
plough, or cultvator, and harrow, and then
SOW on the seed In the use OF such land,
and by such course of treatment, new
surface soil, comparatively free from weeds,
is gained, and the grass being entire ly
turned under the expense of wedding is
much less than on the ground prepared in
q different manner.
