PEPPER 



The culture of pepper is the same as for egg jjlant; the plants need 

 quite as much heat to perfect them, though they mature sooner 

 and maj' be sown a little later. Guano, hen dung, or anj- other 

 bird manure, hoed into the surface soil when the plants are about 

 six inches high, will wonderfully increase the product and also im- 

 prove the quality of the fruit.
