having larger and smoother fruits with thicker walls.

Florida Giant (Certified)—130 Days—Sweet. 
This selection out of California Wonder is becoming 
an important variety in the South. It is not as well 
suited to the North, because of its late maturity. 
The plants are taller and coarser than California 
Wonder, and the leaves are wider. The fruits are 
borne upright and are generally wider and longer 
than California Wonder, otherwise, they are the 
same. Use Certified California Wonder for the 
North and Florida Giant for the South.

California Wonder (Certified) — 120 Days — 
Sweet. Plants mostly upright, medium size and 
fairly compact. Foliage dark green and glossy with 
large, broad leaves. Fruits are borne upright, 
medium width and length, averaging 3x3)4 inches, 
with only a very slight taper to mostly 4 points. 
The crown is generally hollow, and the outside of 
the fruits very smooth. Color when young is dark 
green and very dark red when ripe. The walls are 
very thick, the flesh sweet. One of the finest for 
stuffing with meat. Certified California Wonder 
differs from Florida Giant in being earlier in matur¬ 
ing, having smaller plants, and with smaller fruits. 
It is better suited to northern growing conditions 
than Florida Giant. Plant some Certified California 
Wonder. Pkt. 10c oz. 95c X lb. $3.25 lb. $11.00 
Cheese (Sunnybrook)—110 Days—Sweet. Med¬ 
ium-sized plant, producing many small fruits borne 
upright. Size is generally 3 inches wide and 1 inch 
thick, the shape of a Cheese pumpkin. The fruits 
are smooth, the color when young being green, and 
ripening to a deep red color. The walls are very

Cherry Red (Large Red Cherry)—100 Days— 
Hot. About same as Cheese in shape but a little 
smaller size. Fleshishot. Pkt. 10c oz. 30c Xlb. $1.00 
Chinese Giant—-130 Days—Sweet. Medium 
sized plants, bearing pendant, very large fruits, 
mostly 4x4 inches with no tapering to the 4 or 5 
irregular points. The fruits are rough and much 
ribbed, and belly-out at the center like a Chinese 
lantern. When immature they are green and ripen 
to red. Walls are thin and the flesh sweet. Where 
very large, rough fruits are wanted, this is the kind 
to plant, but the thinness of the walls is a disad¬ 
vantage. Certified World Beater is superior to this 
variety because the fruits are smooth and the walls 
thick. Size is a little smaller.

Golden Bell (Golden Dawn)—120 Days—Sweet. 
This is a golden Bull Nose, being identical to this 
variety in type of plant and fruits. The color of the 
young peppers is very light green, turning to light 
yellow, then an orange-yellow color as they mature. 
The flesh is medium thickness and sweet.

Harris’ Early Giant—110 Days—Sweet. This 
variety might be described as an earlier World 
Beater since the general characters of plant and 
fruits are about the same. It is well suited to the 
most northern states where World Beater matures 
too late. The fruits of Harris’ Early Giant, however, 
average a little smaller, the outside is more rough, 
and the flesh is not as thick as World Beater.

end of the fruit. The outside of the fruit is very 
wrinkled and creased, the color is green when

of housewives. Pkt. 5c oz. 40c X lb- $1.25
