Sow early indoors in flats, cover lightly and keep very warm until the seed comes up. Trans- 
plant outdoors after frost danger is past. For home gardens, we suggest buying plants. See

679 VINEDALE (New). The Earliest Good Pepper. 
62 days. One of the easiest peppers to grow that we have ever seen, Vinedale is extra early, 
highly prolific and most dependable. It is adapted for northern sections and for early crops 
elsewhere, and it was developed by Dr. O. J. Robb of Vineland Station, Ontario, Canada. It 
replaces our own Harris’ Earliest, famous for over 30 years. 
The dwarf husky vines are literally loaded with brilliant scarlet fruit of fine quality. The 
peppers are medium-sized, rather tapered or pointed, and they are remarkably thick-fleshed 
for such an early type. For an abundance of early red peppers, grow Vinedale.
