Harris’ Wonder Peppers 
Noted for smooth, even shape and thick flesh. 
665 HARRIS’ WONDER. ay Prolific, Thick Meated. 
In our opinion this is the finest 
general purpose pepper for every garden. The bright red fruit is of good 
size, very smooth, blunt in shape and exceptionally thick meated. 
Because of its unusually thick and very sweet flesh, it is ideal for slicing, 
as well as being good for baking and relish, and may be used when either 
green or red. ; 
The fruits are borne well up off the ground on sturdy plants and start 
ripening sufficiently early to yield heavy crops even in our short North- 
ern seasons. It is the earliest pepper that carries the thick flesh and 
fine blocky shape of California Wonder, and is an ideal type for both 
home and market. Since we first introduced this variety, the consistent 
increase in demand has made it our largest selling pepper.

679 WINDSOR A. Early, Thick Meated and Prolific. The peppers 
are smooth and long, usually tapering to a point. They ripen early and 
are extremely prolific and dependable producers. Light green turning 
to a bright scarlet, with very thick flesh of fine quality. An excellent 
early variety for both home and market growers.

663 HARRIS’ KING OF THE NORTH. Enormous 
Early Fruit, 
Abundant Yield. This immense pepper of our own growing is the 
largest early red pepper. The fruit is of long shape, growing up to 8 
inches long and 3 or 4 inches broad at the top. The flesh is medium 
thick, very crisp, mild and sweet. Because of its size and shape, it is 
preferred by many for stuffing and baking. 
It starts to ripen very early, the peppers turning from dark green toa 
deep rich red when ripe. The plants are of branching growth and liter- 
ally covered with these enormous fruit. Under most conditions, it is 
the heaviest yielder we know, and we consider it the finest early large 
pepper for both the market and home garden. 
Pkt. 15c; 144 Oz. 45c; Oz. 85c; 4 Lb. $2.70. 
656 CALWONDER. Early. Large Fruits of California Wonder 
Type. This excellent new pepper bears large square heavy fruit like 
California Wonder in size and shape but ripens at least a week earlier 
than that variety. The peppers are thick fleshed, meaty and very large, 
and are ideal for both home and market growers who have difficulty in 
raising California Wonder in the North. 
The plants are dwarf but very sturdy and they bear tremendous 
crops of these fine fruits. Calwonder has been widely tested and is 
already a great favorite in many sections. 
Pkt. 15c; 4 Oz. 45c; Oz. 85c; 4 Lb. $2.70. 

Harris’ Pepper Plants 
We make a specialty of growing fine sturdy pepper plants. We 
can supply either seedlings which should be grown in the hot bed 
or window box for a few weeks or hardy transplanted plants for 
setting directly in the garden. See page 75 for varieties and prices. 



PEPPERS 
A packet of seed will produce about 75 plants; an ounce about 1000 plants. 
Peppers are not difficult to raise if the right seed is used and the plants 
are set out early on rather warm, rich soil. If the peppers are kept picked 
before they turn red, the plants will produce great numbers of fruit. 
Seed should be sown in the greenhouse or indoors in flats, or in hot beds, 
in April and grown in flats before setting outdoors. When sowing pepper 
seed, cover very lightly, and keep the soil moist and very warm. The seed 
will not germinate unless kept very warm all the time. For the home 
garden, it is easier to buy the plants. See page 75. 
Harris’ Norther Grown Pepper Seed 
Most seed companies do not produce pepper seed as far north as we are 
because ordinary varieties do not bear enough fruit here to make it profit- 
able. However, for many years we have specialized in breeding early 
strains which grow well and bear large crops here. We find that our 
Northern Grown Strains are the only ones which can be depended on to 
produce good crops every year. Starting with Harris’ Earliest many years 
ago, we have since developed Harris’ Early Giant, Harris’ King of the 
North, Harris’ Improved Squash, Hot Portugal and finally our newest 
introduction Harris’ Wonder. 
660 HARRIS’ EARLIEST. The Earliest Pepper. If you have 
difficulty in raising sweet peppers, 
try this kind. They always produce an abundance of fruit even in 
short seasons when other kinds do not ripen. For the far northern parts 
of the country where the larger and later kinds do not mature, this is 
the only sweet pepper that will make a good crop every season, and it 
will ripen much earlier than any other kind. We often get a lot of ripe 
(red) peppers here the first part of August and always plenty of green 
peppers on the plants before that date. 
The plants are only a foot or 18 inches high and on good ground 
produce so many peppers that they hardly seem able to support them. 
They are of good size, often 3 in. long and 21% in. in | diameter, and of 
very mild, sweet flavor.

661 HARRIS’ EARLY GIANT. Large Early Fruit. The earliest pepper 
of large size and valuable for that reason. The fruit often grows 4% 
inches deep and 34% inches through, with thin mild flesh. It ripens early 
turning from a deep green to brilliant red. 
The plants grow upright and bear heavy crops of fruit long before 
the later kinds are ready. Our own introduction and a great favorite 
in the North. 
Pkt. 15¢e; 44 Oz. 40c; Oz. 75c; 14 Lb. $2.20. 
662 HARRIS’ IMPROVED SQUASH. Heavy Yielding Strain. This 
is the pepper which is so popular for canning because of its extremely 
thick flesh and fine quality. The shape is square, short and blunt, and 
they are nearly all meat. In many sections they are called ‘‘ Pimientos.” 
Our strain is by far the best of this type for the North. It is early, 
very prolific and thick meated, and is a great improvement over 
Cheese or Sunnybrook, etc. With our early prolific strain you can get 
large dependable crops of fine fruit year after year even here in the 
North. Seed of our own growing.

Harris’ King of the North
