Ruby Giant Pepper. 
Ruby Giant matures 
early, the plant is vigor- 
ous and upright, slightly 
taller than the Chinese 
Giant and even more pro- 
ductive. The fruit be- 
ing large and sweet is 
splendid for stuffing. 
The Ruby Giant is such a fine pepper for both the home gardener and 
the Market Gardener that we do not hesitate to recommend it highly 
Try it. Pkt., 10c; % oz., 30c; oz., 55c.

4 inches through. They are remarkably pleasant and mild in flavor and

CELESTIAL. This pepper has two uses, being both orna- 
mental and edible. The profusely bearing plants produce 
fruits of con- 
stantly changing 
color. When 
young they are 
a creamy yellow 
and as they ma- 
ture they become 
a vivid scarlet. 
The bushes are 
an ornament to 
any garden and 
the peppers are 
fine for pickling. 
Peppers may be divided into two classes, the hot 
ones used for flavoring and the mild ones for stuffing. 
They thrive, best in a warm deep, fairly moist, fer - 
tile, sandy loam, although often grown commercially 
on moderately heavy soils. The drainage must be 
good and a southern exposure is preferable. 
Peppers should be started in hotbeds, in February 
or March, and not planted outside until the soil is 
warm and there is no danger of frost. Set the plants 
in rows 2 feet apart and 18 inches in the row. Hoe 
often and keep the weeds down. 
BARTELBES' RUBY GIANT PEPPER. One of the 
finest Peppers we have ever grown and we can recom- 
mend it highly. The Ruby Giant is a cross between 
the Ruby King and the Chinese Giant, having the good 
qualities of both. The peppers are of very large size 
and so sweet and mild that they can be eaten raw. The 
flesh is very thick. When ripe the pepper is of a bright 
red color.

CHINESE GIANT. One of the very best and largest mango 
peppers ever introduced. Its mammoth size, splendid shape, 
beautifully rich, glossy-red flesh and mild flavor, all lead us 
to recommend it very highly. Its strong bushy plants are

out the season. A very unusual variety worthy of the highest 
recommendation. Pkt., 10c; y 2 oz., 30c; oz., 55c.
