Harris’ Northern Grown Pepper Seed 
If you want to make peppers a profitable crop here in the North, use Harris’ Northern Grown 
Pepper Seed. We have specialized for over twenty years in growing peppers on our farm. Years 
ago we found out that the varieties which are usually grown in the long seasons and warmer cli- 
mates farther south did not ripen enough fruit to make peppers a profitable crop in the North. So 
we developed a number of early, heavy bzaring varieties, which are suited to our conditions and will 
produce an abundance of ripe fruit wherever the seasons are short.

Harris’ Wonder 
Now better than ever! 
Without sacrificing any of the earliness 
or heavy yields which have made this 
pepper the outstanding variety for the 
North, we have improved the size and 
uniformly fine shape by pure line selec- 
tion. Our 1941 seed crop was even more 
uniform and prolific than ever before. 
Harris’ Wonder is a very smooth, thick 
fleshed California Wonder type which will 
give you not only enormous crops of green 
peppers but an abundance of ripe fruit 
before frost. 
The peppers are large, chunky and 
beautiful dark green turning to rich red 
when ripe. They are very thick meated 
and the quality is excellent. A level bushel 
weighs over 30 lbs. 
Growers have been most enthusiastic 
in its praise and the demand is constantly 
increasing. Grow some this year, we know 
you will like it.

Harris’ Early Giant—The Earliest Large Pepper 
Harris’ Early Giant which we introduced a number of years ago is unquestionably recognized 
as a standard large early variety and gardeners in the North find it very profitable to grow. 
It is a most dependable cropper producing an abundance of large peppers which are often 
414 in. long and 4 in. across and ripen only a week later than Harris’ Earliest, the earliest pepper 
grown. To be sure of the true stock, get your Harris’ Early Giant from us. Seed of our own growing.

Harris’ Improved Squash Pepper — Very Early and Heavy Yielder 
This pepper replaces the old type known as Squash, Cheese, Sunnybrook, etc. 
It is so early and prolific that it produces three times as many peppers as any other ‘Squash 
or Cheese’ pepper which we have seen. This early character and high yield make it a profitable 
kind to grow even here in the north. The fruit is the true ‘‘Squash”’ shape, with very thick mild, 
sweet flesh. These peppers are also known as ‘‘Pimientos’’ and are used for canning whole in 
some sections. Seed of our own growing. See prices on next page. 
Hot Portugal—Large and Hot 
If you want lots of large, long hot peppers, grow this kind. The fruit is long, pointed and quite 
smooth for a pepper of this type. They normally average six inches or over in length and are borne 
profusely on the sturdy plant. This pepper is bright red when ripe and in addition to its large size, 
is just as hot as the old Giant Cayenne. Seed of our own growing. See prices on next page.
