P fe ay PS E R S A packet of seed will produce about 75 plants; 
an ounce about 1000 plants. 
Growing 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 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 
page 75. (Days to maturity are from the time the plants are set out.) 
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 load- 
ed 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.

675 PENNWONDER. The Finest Early Pepper. 
68 days. 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, and has good size, an attractive blocky or tapered shape, and extra-thick walls. 
Dark green turning to rich red when ripe, the crisp flesh is always sweet and mild. They are 
delicious for slicing, relish or stuffing.

long and 3 or 4 inches across the top, and has medium thick flesh—crisp, mild and sweet. 
It is 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.
