Peter John 
(As illustrated on front cover) 
A sport of Thanksgiving Pink, being identical in 
every way with this well known variety except 
color, which is a much lighter shade of pink. Intro¬ 
duced in 1936, there was quite a heavy demand 
last year which could not be supplied on account 
of a shortage of stock. This season our grower is 
well prepared to take care of all orders.
