660 HARRIS’ EARLIEST. The Earliest Pepper. If you have 
Peppers can now be grown successfully even in short season areas, 
thanks to the early strains which we and others have developed. Grow- 
ing peppers here in the North has been a Harris’ specialty for many 
years, and our seed is noted for its vigor, high germination and trueness 
to type. 
Sow the seed early indoors in flats, cover lightly and keep very warm 
until the seed comes up. Transplant outdoors after frost danger is past. 
For home gardens, we suggest buying plants. See page 75.

Harris’ King of the North—Large size, best quality. 
663 HARRIS’ KING OF THE NORTH. Enormous Fruit, 
Abundant Yields. 
This immense pepper of our own growing is the largest early red 
pepper. The fruit grows up to 8 inches long and 3 or 4 inches across 
the top, and has medium thick flesh—crisp, mild and sweet. Its size 
and shape make it fine for stuffing and baking, as well as slicing and 
salads. 
Ripening very early, the peppers turn from dark green to deep rich 
red. The plants are of branching growth and are literally covered with 
enormous fruit. Under most conditions, it is the heaviest yielder we 
know, and we consider it the finest early large pepper.

665 HARRIS’ WONDER. Smooth, Blocky Fruit. Its bright 
red fruit, good size, smooth shape 
and thick meat have made this a favorite with home gardeners. 
Either green or red, the crisp sweet flesh is delicious for slicing, relish 
or stuffing. Carrying the fruit high, the stocky plants produce heavy 
crops, even in the North, and the shape is blocky and attractive. 
Ever since we introduced it, Harris’ Wonder has been a very popular 
variety. Pkt. 15c; 44 Oz. 45c; Oz. 85c; 14 Lb. $2.30.

Type. This excellent variety bears large square heavy fruit like 
California Wonder in size and shape but ripens at least a week earlier. 
The fruit are thick fleshed, meaty and very large, and they are pro- 
duced abundantly on dwarf, sturdy plants. Calwonder is now the 
leading market variety in the East.

652 CALIFORNIA WONDER. True Stock. We have a very superior 
stock of this fine variety which is so widely grown for large thick- 
meated green peppers by market growers. The fruit is of the true 
California Wonder shape, large and smooth, and with very thick 
flesh which makes it exceptionally heavy. They mature medium early 
and under good growing conditions will make a very profitable crop.

681 WORLDBEATER, EARLY STRAIN. This early strain of World-

better crops in Northern sections. On our farm it has consistently 
produced good yields even in our short seasons. 
The fruit are of true Worldbeater type, large, dark green and very 
uniform and the thick flesh makes them exceptionally heavy. They 
are about 5 inches long and 2% inches in diameter. The large strong 
plants are very dependable producers. Highly recommended.

difficulty in raising sweet peppers, 
try this kind. They always produce an abundance of fruit even in far 
northern sections where the larger and later kinds do not make a 
crop, and in all sections, they are the first to ripen. We often have 
ripe red peppers early in August. 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.

675 PENNWONDER. €arly—Thick-Meated—Big Yields. 
For thick-fleshed fruit and tremendous 
crops in short season areas, Pennwonder is the best early pepper we 
know. Developed at Penn State College from a cross between our 
Harris’ Earliest and California Wonder, it successfully combines the 
best features of both. It is very early, a little ahead of Harris’ Won- 
der, and has good size, an attractive blocky or tapered shape, and 
extra-thick walls. Dark green turning to rich red when ripe, the 
flesh is always sweet and mild. 
The ability of the sturdy dwarf plants to set numerous fruit under 
almost any conditions is a most desirable feature of this remarkable 
pepper. If you have had difficulty growing good peppers, try Penn- 
wonder. Pkt. 20c; % Oz. 50c; Oz. 95c; 144 Lb. $2.85. 

662 HARRIS’ IMPROVED SQUASH. Heavy Yielding Strain. This 
is the pepper which is so popular for canning and freezing because of 
its extremely thick flesh and fine quality. The shape is square, short 
and blunt, and they are nearly all meat. They are also called ‘‘ Pi- 
mentos.”’ Our strain is by far the best of this type for the North. It is 
earlier and more prolific than others, and year after year it produces 
large dependable crops of fine thick-meated fruit. Seed of our own 
growing. Pkt. 15c; 144 Oz. 45c; Oz. 85c; 14 Lb. $2.30.
