301— ROYAL KING (Sweet)—In this variety you have the utmost that can be 
obtained in the way of a Bell type pepper. It is a very attractive pepper, an 
excellent shipper and commands the top prices in the market. I highly rec¬ 
ommend this variety as an all-round pepper for the home garden, nearby 
markets or shipping. It grows to a large size, is very mild, and when ripe 
is of a bright scarlet color. The flesh is thick, meaty and fine flavored. Plants 
grow 2 to 2 Yz feet high, vigorous and productive, bearing an enormous yield 
throughout the season. It is especially desirable for shipping, due to its 
regularity of size and shape, which makes it an exceptionally desirable variety 
for good packing and fine appearance on arrival in the markets.

303— CHINESE GIANT (Sweet)—The Chinese Giant is one of the largest and 
finest peppers in cultivation. The plant is about two feet high, of strong, vig¬ 
orous growth, stocky and erect in habit, very productive, and ripens its fruits 
earlier than the Ruby King. The compact plants are very prolific, setting 3 to 
4 extra fruits at the base quite early in the season, which ripens while a second 
crop is setting on the branches. The fruits are quite square, averaging 4 inches 
in diameter, and is a bright, glossy scarlet color when ripe.
