W. F. Allen’s Plant and Seed Catalogue, Salisbury, Md. 
PEPPERS. 
EUBY KING.—The plants grow about two feet high and produce 
fine crops of handsome large, scarlet fruit which ripens somewhat 
earlier than any other variety. Flesh thick, sweet and mild; espe¬ 
cially fine for salad, or stuffed for mangoes. I place this variety at 
the head of the list because it is generally considered the best of all 
the varieties. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 20c.; quarter lb., 50c.; lb., $1.75. 
LONG RED CAYENNE—The conical shaped fruit is from 
three to four inches long and of a bright, red color, and borne in great 
profusion. This is a standard household variety. Pkt., 5c.: oz., 20c.; 
quarter lb., 50c.; lb., $2.00. 
BULL NOSE.— A standard sweet-flavored, scarlet sort. Plants 
two feet high, prolific, and quite early in ripening. The sweet, scarlet 
fruits are three inches in length and two inches in diameter. Pkt., 5c.; 
oz., 20c.; quarter lb., 50c; lb., $1.75. 
CHINESE GIANT.—F lesli thick and solid : requires a long grow¬ 
ing season, so plants should he set early. The peppers grow much 
larger than Euhy King, and of a bright scarlet color when ripe. The 
plant is strong, of vigorous growth, being about two feet high when 
fully grown, and very prolific. The extreme size of the peppers is a 
great surprise to all who grow them. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 35c.; quarter lb.,

RADISHES. 
SCARLET GLOBE.—This new radish has espe¬ 
cially a good reputation as a forcing sort. Its pecu¬ 
liarity is that it will bear forcing without becoming 
pithy in character or suffering injury to its flavor. Its 
attractive shape Is shown in the illustration; its 
color is rich scarlet, which has a small top, and is in 
all respects a high-bred radish. I have planted a 
number of varieties for bunching and for early mar¬ 
ket, but until I can find something better I shall not 
plant anything except the Scarlet Globe hereafter. 
Pkt.. 5c.; oz., 10c.; quarter lb., 20c.; lb., 50c.; 10 lbs. 
by express, $3.50. 
WHITE TIP SCARLET TURNIP,—Color is scarlet and 
white, as indicated by its name. It is extremely quick to mature, being 
ready for the table in seventeen to twenty days from time of sowing 
seed'; is invaluable for planting under glass as well as for the open 
air; the skin is very smooth. Market gardeners find it a quick-selling 
sort at good prices; for the private home garden it is no less satisfac¬ 
tory. Pkt, 5c.; oz., 10c. ; quarter lb., 20c.: lb., 50c.; 10 lbs. by express 
$3160. 
EARLY DARE RED. —This radish is a great favorite with mar¬ 
ket gardeners on account of its size and attractive appearance. Market 
gardeners, as well as private gardeners, who have not tried this variety 
will find it to give entire satisfaction. Its beautiful color is implied in 
its name. It makes very rapid growth and is one of the sweetest and 
tenderest radishes in the whole list. Pkt., 5c.; oz.. 10c.; quarter lb.,
