TOMATO. 
Tomato. Toviates. SiekSa^jfel. 
Culture. — Sow in a hotbed in early spring, or the seed may be sown in shallow boxes and placed in a window, 
when one does not wish to have tlie trouble of making a hotbed. Transplant to the open ground when all danger 
of frost is past, setting tlie plants 3 or 4 feet apai-t each way. 
Some support .should always be provided for the vines, to keep 
the fruit from touching the ground. Fruit may be had several 
weeks earlier by sowing seed quite early, and transplanting to 
small pots; when these arc filled with roots, shift to a larger size, 
and transplant to open ground when the weather is warm and 
settled, shading from the sun for a day or so.
