PEPPERS. 



Baby Bell. (See Specialties, page 55.) 4 Pkls.. 50c. 



Chinese Giant. The fruits are mammoth, averaging 12 to 15 inches in 

 c-rcumference and, notwithstanding the immense size, are early and 

 prolific; the well-branched plants, about 2 feet high, carry a large crop 

 of most attractive Peppers. The flesh is thick, tender, mild, sweet and 

 unexcelled for use as salad, or for stuffing for "Mangoes. ' 



County Fair. The best of all horn shaped Peppers. It is particularly 

 sweet and mild. Thicker in flesh than any other sort and enormously 

 productive. We know of no Pepper equal to it in quality and pro- 

 ductiveness. It is strikingly handsome, of medium size, very solid and 

 "meaty," entirely free from any biting or burning taste 



Golden Dawn. Similar to the popular Bell, or Bull Nose, but the color 

 is golden-yellow. It has a very sweet and delicate flavor 



Large Bell, or Bull Nose. A large, early, bright red variety of mild flavor; 

 a favorite for stuffing when green 



Long Red Cayenne. Bright -scarlet, cone-shaped, pungent pods, as 

 much used for pickling when green as when ripe 



Neapolitan. Earlier than other large Peppers. The fruits average 4J4 

 inches in circumference by 4 inches long; they are thick-meated and 

 unusually mild and sweet; flesh and skin bright red when ripe; pro 

 ductive, and rontinues fruiting throughout the season 



Red Chili. Small bright red Peppers, very hot and pungent, and generally 

 used for making Pepper sauce; very prolific 



Red Cluster. Dwarf, compact plants, enormously productive. Small 

 thin pods borne upright in clusters; red and pungent 



Ruby King. (See Specialties, page 55.) A favorite sort for use as 

 salad, stuffing, etc 



Sweet Mountain, or Mammoth. Similar to Bull Xose, though usually 

 larger in size and of deeper shade; of very mild flavor; fine for "Man 

 goes" 



POTATOES. Superior Northern-grown, especially for Seed. (1 peck will 

 plant about 125 hills; 10 to 12 bushels per acre, in drills 3 feet apart.)
