PEPPERS 
One ounce of seed produces about 2000 plants 
Peppers are easily grown and are a vege¬ 
table of many, many uses. Sweet Peppers 
are widely used, both cooked and in the raw 
state, for salads. They are also valuable for 
garnishing, especially when they become 
highly colored at the end of the season. A

and it is no trick to grow them after they 
have safely been brought through the cut¬ 
worm season.
