FROGMORB SELECTED TOMATO. 
TOMATO. 
Cultivation.— The Tomato is rapidly growing in general estimation, and will probably soon be considered one oi the mos 
important of all garden vegetables, as it can be prepared in so many ways for family use throughout the whole year. Sow a® 
required from January to March, and when the plants are about 2 inches high transplant into small pots— one plant to each 
pot— and set the pots into the hot-bed, by which process the plants are rendered more sturdy and branching. Transfer to the 
open ground as soon as all danger of frost is over, in hills four feet apart each way, having previously mixed a shovellul of well- 
rotted manure with the soil. Water freely at time of transplanting, and shelter from the sun for a few days until the plants 
are established. To hasten the maturity of the first fruits which sets, pinch off the tops and all the secondary shoots which after- 
wards appear above the flowers. Soil should be rich and light on a dry sub-soil.
