Culture of Tomato.—Seed may be started in hot-bed in March, or sufficient plants'for family use can be grown in pots or 
boxes indoors with Very little trouble. Be particular to give plants the benefit of the fresh air and sun whenever judicious, 
for the purpose of hardening them, and cover with mats when necessary to prevent them from frosting. The two extremes of 
heat and cold are equally injurious. It is customary with the best gardeners to remove the plants from the hot beds to the 
cold frames, allowing a distance of several inches between the plants. In May select and prepare the soil, and set the plants 
three feet apart each way. Hoe and draw earth tothe stems. When the plants crowd the fruit will be small. Have the soil 
very rich. . For general crop, sow from the middle of April or during May in the open air, selecting good soil in a location much 
exposed to the sunand sheltered by a hill, fence or woods on the north.
