 Pepper 



SUPER-STANDARD 



Very large, very prolific, very quick to color 



Days to maturity, 120. Again, through the 

 courtesy of Mr. Walter S. Schell, we are able to 

 offer this ^ery valuable sweet Pepper to our cus- 

 tomers. This remarkable variety combines in a 

 very unusual way, ea.rly maturity with quick color- 

 ing and unusually large size. It is a very desirable 

 table quality, and, perhaps, what is most striking, 

 is its unusually heavy yield. Year after year, market 

 gardeners who have grown it have been amazed at 

 its productiveness. The early Pepper usually 

 brings the most substantial profits. Individual 

 plants have been known to produce as high as 75 

 fruits. The historj^ of this Pepper is not clearly 

 known, but apparently it was brought to Penn- 

 sylvania several years' ago by a German physician 

 who grew it for a number of seasons before it was 

 found b}^ Mr. Schell, who introduced it in 1912. 

 Since that time it has had wide notice and has shown 

 strong profits for those who planted it. If you do 

 not know it, be sure to give it a trial this season. 

 You will not be disappointed. Price, delivered: 

 Pkt. 15 cts.; oz. 75 cts,; ^Ih. $2.50; lb. $10. 



World-Beater Pepper 



SUPER-STANDARD 



Daj^s to maturity, 140. As we under- 

 stand it, this sweet Pepper is a selection 

 from the older Ruby King. Just as Schell's 

 Quality Pepper is valued for the earlier 

 market, we consider World Beater equally 

 valuable as a later type. World Beater 

 is as early as Ruby King and is nearly as 

 large as Chinese Giant, a variety we have 

 discarded because of its low yielding quali- 

 ties. World Beater has a thick wall which 

 enables it to hold a long time after ripen- 

 ing, also making it an excellent shipper. 

 Twenty or more fruits have often been 

 found on a single plant. These fruits are 

 sometimes twice the size of Schell's 

 Quality. A combination of these two 

 varieties should prove extremely profitable 

 in anv farming operation. Price, delivered : 

 Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 30 cts.; y4lb. $1 ; lb. $4. 



Sussex, N. J., June 5, 1925 

 / was much pleased with the small order I received I 

 from you a Jew days ago. This was one oj several \ 

 little orders that I sent to "new people" — firms I bad- 

 never dealt with — just to see what they would supply . . . 



You were the most prompt oj the lot. Your seeds 

 were put up nice in generous-sized packets, and, above 

 all, they were very nice, clean, jresb-looking seeds. I 

 have grown vegetables for years, but I think the Golden 

 Bantam Corn you sent me was the nicest Bantam Seed 

 Corn I have ever had. Another year, I think you will 

 bear Jrom me with a much larger order. — J. C. Ayers.
