PEPPERS 
1 oz. will produce 1500 plants 
Sow inside about March 15th. Transplant once and 
set in open ground after danger of frost, 20 inches by 30 
inches apart. 
* WINDSOR ‘‘A”’: 60 days. Originated at the Con- 
necticut Experiment Station. Windsor “‘A”’ is 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 we have are their long 
shape and the fact that the peppers are a little lighter 
green than the public has been used to. Pkt. 10 
ae % oz. 20 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; 1% Ib. $1.45; Ib. 
4.75. 
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. 20 cts.; 
oz. 50 cts.; % lb. $1.45; Ib. $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 4% inches long by 3% 
inches in diameter. Pkt. 10 cts.; %{ oz. 20 cts.; oz. 
50 cts.; % Ib. $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 and under some conditions Waltham Beauty 
seems to be rather a shy bearer. Pkt. 10 cts.; % oz. 
25 cts.; oz. 70 cts.; % lb. $2.10; lb. $6.00. 
CALIFORNIA WONDER: 75 days. This is the 
thickest meated pepper that we know of. Fruits are 
large, 41% 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. 20 cts.; oz. 50 cts.; % lb. $1.45; 
Ib. $4.75. 
GIANT CAYENNE: 70 days. One of the best “hot 
peppers.’ The fruit is 3 inches long and 1 inch 
through. Ripens early and is very prolific. Pkt. 10 
eter) 24,02, 20 cts.;/oz. 50 cts.; .% Ib. $1.45; Ib.

leaves; heavily crumpled. Stem thick, broad, light 
green in color. Most popular of chards. Pkt. 10

“Your Seneca ‘‘60’’ was the best sweet corn I ever raised.” 
March 20, 1940 Eugene F. Nudd — 
Hampton Beach, New Hampshire 

No wonder L. E. Brungess of Penn Yan, N. Y. looks happy. He 
was awarded first prize on his Windsor ‘‘A’’ Peppers at the New 
York State Fair last fall. Just look at the load of peppers on that 
plant. We have never had any variety bear like Windsor ‘‘A’’.

popular variety for both commercial and home use.

topped stock for greenhouse forcing. Pkt. 10 cts.;

COMET: 24 days. Much like the Early Scarlet Globe 
but round instead of olive shape; fully as early. It 
has a medium top, is bright scarlet in color and holds 
longer than other varieties without becoming pithy. 
We believe Comet is a valuable addition to our 
radish list. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 20 cts.; % lb. 35 cts.;

longer than the early varieties. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 15 
cts.; % lb. 30 cts.; lb. 95 cts.
