TOMATOES 



Do best in sandy, well pulverized

 out, 3" apart, in boxes or pots — later 



transplant into the garden. Or keep 

 in flats until all danger of frost is past, 

 and then set plants out directly into 

 the garden. Water around the roots of 

 the plants when setting them out, if 

 ground is dry. Cultivate frequently 

 until plants shade the ground. Remove 

 all but the two or three strongest 

 branches. Study methods of staking 

 and training vines and adopt the one 

 best suited to your situation.
