• TOMATO. 



Tomates. Liehes Apfel. 



Sow thinly about the first week in March in a 

 hot-bed, greenhouse, window, or sitting room, where 

 the temperature is never below 60 degrees. When 

 two inches high set out the plants in boxes about 

 four inches apart, or pot singly. About the first of 

 June they may be transferred to the open ground. 

 Set them deeply, four feet apart, and a shovelful of 

 rotted manure should be mixed in the earth of each 

 hill. If the vines are trained'on trellis the fruit will 

 be finer and larger.
