PIMENTO 
325 Anaheim Chili—A hot late variety desired 
above all others for culinary purposes because 
of its agreeable pungency. Popular with home 
and market gardeners and also grown on a 
commercial scale for drying and canning. Fruits 
are 6 to 8 inches long and about | inch through, 
tapered, deep green, becoming a rich scarlet 
at maturity. Pkt. 10c; oz. 60c: % lb. $2.00; 
lb. $6.00. Postpaid. 
327 California Wonder—This is an outstanding 
variety averaging 4 inches in length to 3% 
inches in diameter with but a slight taper, 
which makes them almost square. It is earlier 
than Chinese Giant and heavier than any of 
the other peppers of the same size. They obtain 
this extra weight by the thick walls that are 
very meaty. The walls are %4 to ¥% of an inch 
in thickness. It is an excellent shipping sort 
and because of the uniformity of shape’ they 
pack well. The skin is a deep rich green, 
smooth and glossy. The ideal pepper for the 
home and market gardener. We are proud of 
the California Wonder. Pkt. 10c; oz. 90c: 1% lb. 
$3.00; 1b. $9.00. Postpaid.

months plant 2 inches deep in heavy soil and deeper in sandy soil, the object being to have 
the seed in the moist soil but shallow enough to get the heat of the sun. Irrigate before planting
