T^WINDSOR “A” PEPPER: 60 days. Originated at 
the Connecticut Experiment Station, Windsor “A” 
gives promise of being one of the best of our large 
early sweet peppers. We have never seen so many 
sweet peppers grow on one plant. The peppers are 
thick walled, sweet and tender. The only criticisms 
that we have is their long shape and the fact that 
the peppers are a little lighter green than the public 
has been used to. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 30 cts.; oz. 
90 cts.; X $3.00; lb. $10.00. 
HARRIS EARLIEST: 55 days. We recommend this 
for an early variety. The peppers are only medium 
size and the meat is rather thin but it is, we believe, 
the best of the early varieties of sweet peppers. . It 
is a very heavy bearer. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; 
X lb. $1.45; lb. $4.75. 
HARRIS EARLY GIANT : 63 days. One of the earli¬ 
est of the large sweet peppers. It is of good quality, 
fairly productive but like Harris Earliest rather thin 
meated. It grows from 4 to 4X inches long by 3X 
inches in diameter. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; X lb. 
$1.45; lb. $4.75. 
WALTHAM BEAUTY: 57 days. A medium early 
large thick meated sweet pepper originated at the 
Massachusetts field station at Waltham. Our only 
criticism of this variety is that the peppers grow in 
an upright position which makes them rather difficult 
to pick. We are making further selections to try to 
overcome this fault. Pkt. 10 cts.; X nz. 25 cts.; oz. 
75 cts.; X lb. $2.30; lb. $8.00. 
CALIFORNIA WONDER: 75 days. This is the 
thickest meated pepper that we know of. Fruits are 
large, 4X inches long by 4 inches thick. Very at¬ 
tractive, smooth, deep green, sweet and mild. Some 
growers feel that California Wonder is too late for 
the East. Varies in productiveness in different soils. 
Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; X lb. $1.45; lb. $4.75. 
GIANT CAYENNE: 70 days. One of the best “hot 
peppers.” The fruit is 3 inches long and 1 inch 
through. Ripens early, very prolific. Pkt. 10 cts.; 
oz. 45 cts.; X lb. $1.45; lb. $4.75. 
PUMPKIN 
1 oz will sow 20 hills 
WINTER LUXURY: 100 days. An early variety for 
the home garden and local market. A trifle larger 
than small sugar; weighing from 7 to 8 pounds. Skin 
is orange-yellow covered by light netting. Flesh 
thick and fine flavored. Pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 12 cts.; 
X lb. 30 cts.; lb. $1.00. 
SMALL SUGAR OR NEW ENGLAND PIE: 118 
days. Small orange colored variety weighing from 6 
to 8 pounds. Flesh is thick, sweet and fine grained. 
The common pie variety. Pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.; 
X lb. 20 cts.; lb. 70 cts. 
CONNECTICUT FIELD : 120 days. The large pump¬ 
kin that used to be grown in every corn field. Rather 
coarse for home use but used extensively for canning 
and stock feeding. Weigh from 15 to 20 lbs. Pkt. 
5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.; X lb. 20 cts.; lb. 60 cts. 
Some have thought the light green of Windsor “A” would be a dis¬ 
advantage on the market. Last fall we experimented with 50 bushel 
in New York City. They topped the market and the buyers wanted 
more. 
THE BACK COVER 
We think this is one of the finest field photo¬ 
graphs that we have ever taken on our farms. 
It shows our seed field of Windsor “A” Peppers 
with a field of Certified Robson Seedling Potatoes 
in the background. The smiling young lady is oun 
bookkeeper’s wife, Gladys—she is just as charm¬ 
ing as she looks in the picture. 
In order that you may have this picture in a 
more permanent form, we have prepared an at¬ 
tractive 1938 calendar with the photograph. It 
is printed on heavy paper and enameled by the 
new cellophane process. 
If you wish one of these calendars, just drop us 
a postal card and we will mail one free of charge. 
PARSLEY 
1 oz. will sow 200 ft. row 
MOSS CURLED: 120 days. A compact plant with 
very dark green leaves, exceedingly finely cut and 
curled. Very desirable for garnishing and decorative 
purposes. Pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 10 cts.; X lb. 25 cts.; 
lb. 75 cts. 
We are interested to know what fertilizer our customers use on peppers. What do you use and how do you apply it?
