How to Get a Crop of Early Peas 
By cultivating intensively. Peas do not need any great 
deposits of manure in the ground, they gather the nourish¬ 
ment from the air (nitrogen), they leave the ground in better 
shape after giving a crop of pods and all you have to do is 
to cultivate and again cultivate, the more the sooner you will 
have pods to pick. By this method we hasten maturity of a 
crop from a week to 10 days.

Extra early and a paying sort as it ripens two weeks 
ahead of other peppers. The peppers are rather small but 
the plants are covered with bright red fruit which you can 
harvest by lifting the bush, picking it clean and rush the 
peppers to market at a time when the less progressive grow¬ 
ers have no red peppers at all. Can be planted closer together 
as the bushes are dwarf and compact. Bell shaped, 3 V 2 inches 
long, sweet. Pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; lb. $3.80.

Pepper but not hot. It is a thick meated sweet pepper that

etc. In our locality it is sometimes called Pimento pepper 
an entirely different variety. See description Pimento or 
Perfection Pepper. Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; lb. $3.00. 
THE BEST is the only thing to grow. To produce best vege¬ 
tables or best flowers you must have the best seed. If you are not 
careful and buy your seed anywhere you will get a batch of seed 
not quite up to the mark. Your product will be of second grade 
quality and when you will market your produce you will dispose of 
it only at second rate prices. Seed business is a science, a real seed- 
man is a near scientist. He has to know a great deal about seeds 
before he can render real service to his customers. If you are new 
in the game of raising vegetables or flowers ask some old gardener 
or florist what he thinks about it.
