12 JOHNSON SEED COMPANY 
NEW RUBY GIANT PEPPER, OHINESE GIANT PEPPER. 
New Ruby Giant Pepper 
In Philadelphia and other markets there has been for some time a growing demand for a mild red 
pepper as large as Chinese Giant, but having the longer shape of Ruby King. Asa result of crossing 
these two peppers, we have indeed a handsome new variety, which retains the enormous size of the 
Chinese Giant, but has lost the somewhat ungainly shape of the latter for the graceful, elongated form 
of Ruby King, being much longer than the former variety and much larger round than the latter. 
In color it is most attractive, being a bright clear red, and in flavor mild, delicious and sweet. The 
plant is vigorous in growth, stocky and well-branched, and is fully as prolific as Chinese Giant. Pkt., 
10c.; oz., 45c.; 4 Ib., $1.35 ; lb., $5.00. 
Chinese Giant Pepper 
The plants are of vigorous growth and seldom more than 2 feet in 
height, well branched and thickly set with monstrous fruits. The pep- 
pers are fleshy, of stocky form and in color the most brilliant scarlet. 
They are uniformly ‘“‘enormous’”’ and are justly called Giants. The 
flesh is extremely mild,as sweet as an appie, and can be served sliced 
like tomatoes. Prices, pkt., 10c.; 0z., 50c.; 4 Ib., $1.60 ; Ib., $5.50. 
New Neapolitan Peppers 
Red and Golden 
These are very early and prolific; fruits 4 inches long by 43 inches 
round ; flesh is thick and very mild. Prices for either sort, pkt., 10c. ; 
oz., 45c.; 4 lb., $1.38. 
The Dainty Duchess Pea 
This new pea, the result of hybridization and careful selection by 
an expert grower in the ‘‘old country,’’ somewhat resembles the well- 
known favorite Telephone in type, but is superior to that variety in 
quality and yield. 
It isa fine wrinkled pea, of tall habit, robust growth, hardy and 
vigorous, producing large, well-filled pods in great profusion. The 
peas themselves are of extra size, borne 8 or 10 to apod, and possess a 
superior delicious sugary flavor. Prices, pkt., 10c.; pint, 30c.; qt., 55c., 
by mail, postpaid ; qt., 40c.; peck, $2.25 ; bush., $8.50, by freight or 
express. 
Carter’s Danby Stratagem Pea 
We have obtained our seed of this new pea from the originators, 
James Carter & Co., the largest seed growers of Great Britain. In our 
trials the past season we found it a distinct improvement on the original 
Stratagem, having longer, straighter and broader pods, very freely 
produced. The haulm is very robust, and extends to a height of 23 
feet, bearing a profusion of immense pods, many 6 inches in length, 
and frequently containing ten large, full-flavored marrow peas. Pkt., 
pad 10c.; pint, 30c:; qt.,50c., postpaid; qt., 35c.; peck, $2.25; bush., $8.00, by
