Tomato. 



One Ounce of Seed will Sow i bo Yards. Ripening for Table 90 to 120 Days from Sowing, According to Variety and Season. 



When the Apple is in bloom sow in hills three feet apart, on a warm border, early in the Spring. For a later suppljr 

 sow a short time afterwards in a more open situation. As the plants advance in growth support them by brushwood. To 

 have the Tomato very early it is necessary to start the plants in a hotbed, or they may be reared in a flower-pot in a window 

 and subsequently transplanted. 



Plants for an early crop should be raised under glass. For intermediate crop they may be raised on outside beds. For 

 late crops the seed may be planted in permanent position when the Apple is in bloom. The average production of fruit, 

 per acre on cultivated and fertilized land is about 14,000 pounds, or say 250 bushels per acre, though 18,000 or 20.000 pounds 

 have been raised. ,
