PEPPERS 
Pepper seed should be sown in a hotbed or in a box in a 
warm place in the house 8 to 10 weeks before danger of frost 
is past, since plants are tender and cannot be set in the field 
before that time. Peppers prefer a moderately light, well- 
fertilized soil. They should be set in rows 2 to 3 ft. apart, 
spaced 18 to 24 in. apart in the row. One pkt. of seed will 
produce about 100 plants; 1 oz. 1500 plants; 4 to 6 ozs. 
will be enough for one acre. 
816 California Wonder O 
117 days. Number one quality Pepper for the country 
south of the Pennsylvania-New York Line. California 
Wonder is all that you could ask for in a stuffing Pepper 
—good size, blocky form, remarkably thick walls, sweet¬ 
ness, tenderness, and good flavor. Because of the 
thickness of its flesh, it will stand packing, shipping and 
handling without bruising or breaking. Peppers are 
about 4 in. long and 3 to in. in diameter, 3 and 4 
lobed, very smooth glossy green, turning to bright crim¬ 
son when ripe. If you live in the extreme northern part 
of the country or in a mountain region, we recommend
