SUPERIOR VEGETABLE SEEDS 
PEPPERS | 
1 oz. to 1,500 plants. 
Peppers should be sown either indoors or in hotbeds early 
in April and transplanted to the permanent beds when about 
3 inches high in two foot drills and two feet apart in the drills. 
The seed can also be sown in open ground when danger from 
frost is past but the crop will naturally be much later. A top 
dressing of fertilizer or poultry manure well mixed with the 
soil when the plants are about 6 inches high will materially 
aid in the production of a big crop.
