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 matei ailly 

 aid in the production of a big crop. 



Rnvdl Kind Plants grow about 2}^ feet high, and are 

 t\Vy txl xvlllg vigorous; compact and very productive, 

 commencing to bear very early and continuing until killed 

 by frost. The fruit is very large, bright and glossy and the 

 extremely thick flesh is sweet and mild. They will stand dis- 

 tant shipping and hold up well for market as they do not wilt 

 nor become ripe near so quickly as other large varieties

 and deserves the attention of every trucker and home gardener, 

 as the quality and marketing possibilities are unexcelled by 

 any other variety. Pkt., 10c; oz., 35c; }i lb., $1.00; lb.,
