HE%REDHOT PEEPER 



New Red Hot. 



Anyone who wants a bot pepper can have It in this 

 variety. It is the hottest pepper 1 know of except the 

 little Cayenne. Its shape is very attractive, and will 

 command attention anywhere. 1 obtained It from the 

 originator in the South of France, who considered it 

 the most strilrlng novelty In the pepper line offered In 

 many years. This new Red Hot pepper excited favor- 

 able comment from every visitor to I'anmure last 

 summer. Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 75 cents. 



New Chinese Giant. 



The Finest, largest and Handsomest Pepper of Them AU. 



Chinese Giant is certainly a wonder. The plants are 

 of strong, stocky growth, of bushy, erect habit, grow- 

 ing 18 inches to 2 feet in height, with abundant foliage. 

 The compact plants are very prolific, setting 3 to 4 

 extra large fruits at the base quite early In the 

 season, which ripen while a second crop is setting on 

 tlie branches. The fruit Is quite square in appearance, 

 while the flesh is thick and very mild, being entirely 

 free from any fiery flavor. 

 Without exception every one of my customers who has 

 ever giown the Chinese Giant has pronounced it the finest 

 and largest pepper they have ever seen. Packet, 10 cents; 

 ' ' ounce, 30 cts.; ounce, 55 cts.; % pound, SI. 50; pound, $5.50. 



Maule's Improved Ruby King. 



This pepper was introduced to the American public more 



than a decade ago, and it at once took conspicuous place 



i became the leader of the sweet red sorts. I have every year 



sought to improve this already good pepper. I can truthfully 



claim that every year my strain of Ruby King Is better than the 



year before. I have furnished this seed to tens of thousands of 



gardeners with the most satisfactory results, and my strain of 



s splendid stock is now noted for perfection of form, large size, 



-Jllance of color, and sweet, mild flavor. So prominent are these 



desirable features that the words "Maule's Improved" are properly 



attached to the name. The Ruby King pepper attains a larger size 



than Spanish Monstrous or any other sort excepting Chinese Giant, 



and is most excellent in every way. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 30 cents; % pound, $1.00; pound, $3.00.
