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. 



Rnvol l^in<5 This remarkable new variety represents 

 IVUj'^il JVlllg t h e resu lt of 18 years of continuous se- 

 lection and reselection on the part of the largest and most re- 

 liable growers of pepper seed in this country. The type is firmly 

 established, producing fruit which is exceptionally uniform in 

 'size, shape, color and quality. The plants grow about 2}^ 

 feet high, and are vigorous; compact in their nature of 

 growth, 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 distant shipping and hold 

 up well for market as they do not wilt nor become ripe near 

 so quickly as Ruby King and other large varieties. This 

 strain is extensively gro"wn 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; oz., 35c; }4 lb., $1.00; lb., 

 $3.50.
