BIG MONEY MAKERS 
ColtnM. — Sow in hotbed in early spring, or the 
eeed may be sown in shallow boxes and placed In a 
window, when one does not wish to have the 
trouble of making a hotbed. Transplant to the open 
ground when all danger of frost is past, setting the 
plants 2 to 4 feet apart each way. Fruit may be 
had several weeks earlier by sowing seed quite early 
and transplanting to small pots. Tomatoes that have 
not ripened at the end of the season may be taken 
from the vines and placed in empty coldframes, or 
wrapped in tissue paper and carefully packed in fiat 
boxes, where a large portion of them will ripen from 
time to time — frequently until Christmas.
