198 PEPPEES. 



Champion of England, an old and well-known 

 Pea, is without doubt the best late variety grown. 

 The vines grow from three to four feet high, and 

 require " brushing," to keep them from the ground. 



Black and White Marrowfats are also tall- 

 growing sorts. They are still planted extensively 

 for late market varieties, and for this purpose are 

 highly esteemed. 



Blob Imperial is a first quality, late variety, and 

 has a delicate flavor when gathered before the Peas 

 have grown full size. This remark can be applied 

 to every variety of Pea cultivated. 



A couple or three quarts of as many of the vari- 

 eties, sown in succession, will keep the table abund- 

 antly supplied with this delicious vegetable. 



PEPPEE. 



Capsicum. 



The Pepper is cultivated to some extent in private 

 gardens and quite extensively as a market crop, very 

 frequently by contract for pickle factories. Although 

 prices are generally low when contracted for, the 

 yield is so large, when the crop does well, that a 

 large profit is often realized from the sale of Pep- 

 pers. 



The seed should be sown in a hot-bed in March, 

 giving the plants the same treatment as Egg Plants, 

 with this exception, they need not be transplanted, 

 but they may be left in the seed-bed until they are 

 removed to the open ground in June. 



There is little or no demand for Peppers in mar-
