types have been introduced, the ten
dency being for shorter roots, both on
account of a saving of labor in digging
and in greater productiveness. For
most varieties, particularly where the
soil is light and thin, the stump-rooted
varieties are preferable. To grow to
perfection carrots require a itch, deep,
sandy loan, we'll pulverized and deep
~ cultivated. For an early crop sow
in May and June in drills about one
foot apart, thinning out to four inches
in the row. Sow for the main crop in
June and July. After sowing tread the
rows firmly.
On poor, light soil, where the weed
ing and cultivation have been neglect
ed, the halflong, stump-rOoted carrots
have yielded at the rate of $40 bushels
per acre. This is more than double the
quantity that could have been raised
had long-rooted varieties been planted
and not nearly as much as would have
been produced had the soil been in good
condition and we'll cultivated Heavier
crops can be produced in deep, rich
soils with the long-roOted varieties, but
in thin soils the shorter kinds give by
far the greater yield.
