The above figures We're secured
from an actual four-aCre field of
carrots. On July 1st, parts of the
field were dug and carefully
weighed 1t was found that there
were % tons of carrots per acre.
Two months later, the remaining
carrots were dug and weighed, max
ing the total yield IS tons per acre.
While this may seem to be an ex-
ceptionally large yield, it was no
larger than other yields in the same
region where there had been an
equally good stand of carrots.
Conditions of soil preferred by
carrots are described as a deep, rich,
sandy loan which is we'll cultivated
we'll drained, free from trash, stones
and weeds 1t is we'll if a crop of
clover, vetch, Canadian peas, or an
application of we'll rotted manure
precedes the carrots. The more de-
sirable seed-bed is made by deep fall
blowing, or early spring blowing ac-
companied by the disking and har.
rowing necessary to make a we'll pull
verified seed-bed 10 or IL inches
deep with a firm sub-surface and a
we'll pulyerized moist surface mulch
about an inch in depth.
Early planting is best, since the
carrots grow best during the cool
part of the season. Sow four or five
seeds per inch. Thinning can be
done by narrowing crosswise when
the carrots are about three inches
tall.
During the growing season, crust
ing Of the soil and growth of weeds
should be prevented by cultivation,
and plenty of early cultivation is one
of the factors of success in carrot
growing. Where irrigating is done,
care should be exercised not to over
irrigate, or to suddenly load the soil
with an abundance of water. In dig
ging one may first cut off the tops
a quarter to half an inch above the
crown as they stand in the row. with
a light, sharp hoe. after which they
may be plowed out and picked up
like potatoes. They keep best when
harvested in fun growth, and should
be stored at once in IA cool, dry eel
lar or pit. In the latter, their COW
ering may be light at first, increas-
ing in depth as the coldness OF
winter is felt, increasing in depth as
the GOODNESS of winter is felt. Alter
nate freezing and thawing is bad
and they should not be permitted to
thaw in the open air as this dam
ages them.
On the four acres of carrots in
cluded in this observation, 10 tons
OF solage per acre would have been
a good crop, whereas, carrots grown
and stored as described gave a Weld
of S5 tons of succulent feed per acre.
