MARKET GARDENERS 

 SUPERIOR STOCKS 



Perfection or Pimiento 



The Sweetest Pepper Ever Grown. Absolutely Without Pungency. 



Perfection Pimiento Pepper is the sweetest of sweet peppers; there being 

 not a trace of pungency perceptible to the taste. The peppers are of a 

 size very suitable for stuffing purposes and are delicious when prepared 

 for the table in that way. 



It is so smooth that it is quite easy to get the skins off by boiling a few 

 minutes; or the skins can be pared off with a knife. 



The plants are very productive and the peppers, which, when ripe, are 

 a beautiful scarlet in color, hold more edible meat than any other sweet 

 variety. Perfection or Pimiento is much sought after for pickles, cutting 

 up in salads, and for flavoring. (See illustration.) Price, oz. 50c, 

 M lb. $1.50, lb. S5.00. 



Ruby King 



Shown in Colors on Front Cover 



Ruby King is one of the most popular 

 large-fruited sweet peppers grown. It 

 is held in high estimation by the market 

 gardeners and is equally valuable for j 

 the home gardeners. The plants, which 

 are vigorous, grow to a height of about 

 two feet, and are clothed with rich, dark 

 green foliage. 



The fruits average about five inches 

 long by three inches in diameter and are 

 usually three lobed. The color is a 

 pleasing deep green, which turns to a 

 glowing ruby red when ripe and the 

 plant is a prolific bearer presenting a 

 most attractive appearance when show- 

 ing its fruit in various stages of devel- 

 opment. 



The flesh is exceedingly thick, sweet 

 and mild making it a desirable and fa- 

 vorite sort for slicing, salads, stuffing, etc. 

 (See engraving.) Price, oz. 50c, % lb. $1.50, 

 Lb. $5.00.

Worldbeater

 is extremely mild and fruits are well 

 colored being at first green and then turning to a 

 rich scarlet red. Worldbeater is very prolific, 

 as many as twenty-four peppers being produced 

 by a single plant. The bushes are dwarf and 

 vigorous with strong stems which carry the fruits 

 well above the soil. (See engraving.) Price,
