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 teds when about 3 Inches high in 



two foot drills and two ftet 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. 



Rnval Kind This remarkable new variety represents the result of 



I\0ydl luOg 18 years of continuous selection and re-selection on the 



part of one of the largest and most reliable growers of pepper seed 



in this country. The type is firmly established, producing frui 



which Is exceptionally uniform in size, shape, color and quality 



The plants grow about 2% feet high, and are vigorous; compact ii 



their nature of growth, and very productive, commencing to bea: 



very early and continuing until killed by frost. The fruit is verj 



large, bright and glossy and the extremely thick flesh is sweet and 



mild. They will stand distant shipping and hold up well foi 



market as they do not wilt nor become ripe near so quickly at 



Ruby King and other large varieties. This strain is extensively 



grown in the South by large shippers and under very favorable 



conditions a record of 800 bu. per acre has been established. It 



is a decided improvement upon anything yet offered in the way 



of a large sweet pepper and deserves the attention of every trucker 



and home gardener, as the quality and marketing possibilities are 



unexcelled by any other variety. Pkt., 10c; or.., 40c; *4 lb., $1.25;
