Tomato Pepper 
The illustration herewith, taken from a 
photograph, isan excellent representation 
of this new red pepper. As implied by its 
name, in shape and general appearance 
it very muchresembles a tomato, somuch 
so that nine persons out of ten, seeing it 
green or ripe, would at first glance say it 
was atomato. I secured the seed from a 
pepper specialist, who has been shipping 
it for a number of years past with great 
success to the New York and Boston mar- 
kets, where he has invariably secured the 
highest market prices. It is of upright 
erowth and must not be confused with the 
Red Squash; it is a much better pepper 
every way, enormously productive, and 
can be eaten out of the hand like an 
apple, being of mild and delicate flavor. 
I have grown it at Panmure for 7 years, 
where it has excited the admiration of all 
visitors. As soon as its merits become 
known, it is sure to prove a profitable 
market variety. ltstays in bearing right 
through the season from early June until 
frost; and bulk for bulk will outyield even 
such a productive variety as Ruby King 
two to one, taking the entire season 
through. If you are raising peppers for 
profit youshould certainly include Maule’s 
Tomato Pepper in your order.

New Red Hot Pepper 
Also called Ladyfinger Pep- 
per. Any of my customers 
who desire a red hot pepper 
can have it in this variety; it 
is absolutely the hottest pep- 
per I know of, except the 
Little Cayenne. Its shape is 
very attractive, and will com- 
mand general attention. The 
about 5 to 7 inches long. It 
produces its fruit upright on 
the plant in wonderful pro- 
fusion. This is a strong feature, as none of the pep- 
pers are apt to rot at the ends. Maule’s New Red 
Hot Peppers are in great demand in all our Eastern 
cities, and are frequently shipped in car lots by 
many of my market gardener customers in South
