THE PEPPERS 
Grow as you would the Tomato, but put plants closer in 
the row. 
477 KING OF THE NORTH—65 days. About the earliest of 
high-quality Sweet Peppers. Particularly large fruits of rich 
red. Medium-thick, sweet flesh, exceedingly crisp. Pkt. 15c; 
% oz. 55c; oz. $1.00. 
473 CALIFORNIA WONDER—75 days. Smooth, erimson 
fruits of blocky form, large and heavy. About the thickest- 
meated of any large pepper. Juicy and crisp. Sprightly, apple- 
sweet flavor. Pkt. 15c; 4% oz. 60c; oz. $1.10; %4 Ib. $3.50. 
478 AVALON SWEET BUT- 
TON—A miniature Pepper of 
even, smooth form, somewhat 
button-shaped, about 2 inches 
wide by one inch through, but 
in very rich soils will grow 
a bit larger. The glossy red 
fruits are uniform, with meat 
thicker than in any other Pep- 
per we have grown or seen; 
flavor and eating quality sweet, 
juicy, crisp, delicious. Wonder- 
ful for salads, or for pickling 
or canning whole. Illustrated opposite. Pkt. 20c; %4 oz. 50c;

pungent sauces, relishes, in pickling’ and the like. Can be 
dried. Long, slender, scarlet fruits. Pkt. 15¢c; % oz. 50c. 
THE ONIONS 
_ You can grow fine onions from seed in your own garden. 
Cultural directions in leaflet sent with seeds. 
385 IMPROVED SWEET SPANISH—A mild, sweet variety, 
wonderful for slicing and salads, always crisp and juicy, and 
of course it is just as fine for cooking. Light yellow skin and 
thin neck. In rich soils it will grow to very large size, and it 
is quite a good keeper for an onion of the Spanish type. In 
the warmer areas, southern New Jersey and south, the 
Spanish Onions seem to be rather easier to grow than are 
the long-keeping sorts, but this variety will also mature in 
climates of Iowa and Massachusetts. Pkt. 15c; % oz. 45c; 1 oz. 
85c; 14 Ib. $2.35. 
393 EBENEZER—The 
mildest of the long- 
keepers. That doesn't 
mean that it is quite 
as mild as the Span- 
ish, but it really does 
average a great deal 
sweeter and milder 
than such sorts as 
Danvers, Southport, 
or Wethersfield, and 
it will keep in good 
shape in winter stor- 
age longer than any 
of them. The bulbs 
are flattened, bright 
yellow globes. Pkt. 
10c; % oz. 30c; 1 oz. 
50c; %4 Ib. $1.40. 
397 JAPANESE 
BUNCHING—Sow 
this for delicious 
green onions (scal- 
lions). It makes no 
bulb, but instead grows 
as a cluster of 4 to 7 
slender, silvery, ten- 
der stalks of delight- 
ful, appetizing flavor. 
Sow in spring for 
green onions in au- 
tumn. Any not used 
then will live over 
winter, and be ready 
to pull early next 
spring, but in cold ‘ 4 
climates better winter-protect the planting with loose straw 
or leaves. Illustrated opposite. Pkt. 15c; 4 oz. 35ce; oz. 60c; 
Y lb. $1.75.

perb table quality. It’s
