GROW PEPPERS != -ALWAYS MONEY MAKERS! 



German, Pfeffer. French, Piment. 

 One ounce of seed will produce 1,500 plants. 



THE hot, pungent flavor of a Pepper is in inverse ratio to its size, the small Peppers being the hottest, while the large varieties 

 are quite mild in flavor. Every vegetable garden should have several varieties, while some are sufficiently beautiful to 

 include iu the flower garden. In the culture of Peppers, use same methods as for Egg Plant. The plants need quite as much heat 

 to perfect them, but mature sooner and may be sown later, or even planted out of doors after warm weather has fairly set in. r* o 

 trouble whatever to grow, when once up. Guano, hen dung, or any other bird manure, hoed into the surface soil when the plants 

 are about 6 inches high, will wonderfully increase the quality of the fruit. 



RUBY KING — 3 — An improved American sort, reaching the larg- 

 est size, yet retaining the symmetrical shape of the smaller 

 sorts. It is very bright colored, temptingly sweet mild flavored, 

 and one of the best for stuffed pickles. Pkt. 4c, oz. 20c, % lb. 60c. 



LARGE BELL. OR BULL NOSE— A very large sort of inverted bell 

 shape, suitable for filling, or for mixed pickle. Flesh thick, 

 hard and less pungent than most other sorts. Pkt. 3c, oz. 12c, 

 *i lb. 45c. 



SWEET MOUNTAIN -10— Plants very vigorous and productive, 

 growing upright, with moderately large leaves. Fruit very 

 large, long, often 8 inches or more in length, by two or three in 

 diameter, very smooth, and handsome, being, when green, of a 

 bright, deep green color, entirely free from any purple tinge, 

 and when mature, of a rich red. Flesh very thick, sweet and 

 mild flavored. Well suited to use as a stuffed pickle. Pkt. 4c, 

 oz. 20c, M lb. 60c. 



BLACK NUBIAN — 7 — A most novel sort. Long, tapering, sharp- 

 pointed fruit, 6 inches long, and of a deep, glossy black color un- 

 til fully ripe, when they change to a dark orange red. Fruit is 

 very fiery, and is superior as flavoring for piccalilly, chow- 

 chow, etc. Also a handsome and unique pot plant. Pkt. 4c, 

 oz. 20c, H lb. 60c. 



LONG RED CAYENNE— 9— A long, slim, pointed pod, and when

 identical, to above, except color, which is of a beautiful golden 

 yellow shade. Pkt. 4c, oz. 25c, % lb. 75c. 



CELESTIAL — 5 — Rare novelty from China, so beautiful that it de- 

 serves a place in every garden. The plant starts to bear early 

 and continues until frosts. Up to the time they are fully ripe 

 the Peppers are of a delicate creamy yellow color, then suddenly 

 change to an intense vivid scarlet, carried upright. Superior 

 quality, fair size, clear sharp flavor. Valuable for pickles and 

 pepper sauce. Pkt. 4c, oz. 20c, lb. 60c. 



RED CHILI — 4 — Used in the manufacture of pepper sauce. Pods 

 sharply conical, and exceedingly pungent when ripe. Requires

 pers grow upright on stiff stems. The fruits are large and hand- 

 some. Pkt. 4c, oz. 25c. lb. 75c. 



CORAL GEM BOUQUET— 8— The illustration above fails to do 

 justice to this beautiful little variety. It is impossible in an en- 

 graving to show how completely covered are the little plants 

 with hundreds of the small, bright-red Peppers. The single 

 groups illustrated is of natural size and so thickly set on the 

 dwarf plants as to give each plant the appearance of a " Bou- 



quet of Corals." As a potted plant for Florists it has proved 

 a most rapid-selling article. Pkt. 5c, oz. 30c, l± lb. $1.00.
