TOBACCO 
CULTURE—A very clean piece of land is best for 
tobacco. It is customary to burn a piece of land in the 
woods for plant beds. This destroys grass, weeds and in¬ 
sects, adds fertility through the action of the wood ashes, 
and leaves the ground in good order. The seeds are sown 
about February and protected by plant-bed cloth to keep 
off tobacco flies. When large enough and weather is set¬ 
tled (about June), set the plants out in highly manured 
or fertilized soil in 3 % -foot rows, 3 feet between the 
plants. Constant care must be given, cultivating, sucker- 
ing, worming, etc. Methods of curing differ according to 
the variety and color; I ounce sows 50 square yards, 
sufficient to set 2 or 3 acres. 
JUDY’S PRIDE—This type of White Burley is the best 
of any variety grown in this section. Makes the largest 
yield and the highest grade of leaf, which is much su¬ 
perior to that grown in other sections. Good, bright leaf, 
small stem and wonderful flavor. Pkt., 20c; Oz., $1,00.

The following varieties are old standards: 
RED AND WHITE BURLEY, SWEET ORONOCO, 
YELLOW PRIOR. Pkt., 10c; Oz., 60c. Postpaid. 
TOMATO 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed will produce from 2,000 
to 3,000 plants. Sow the seed in hot-beds during March. 
When the plants are 2 inches high transplant into cold 
frames, plant boxes, paper pots or earth bands. After all 
danger of frost is over, set these plants into the open 
ground. The soil should be warm, mellow and fertile. Set 
plants 4 feet apart each way. Cultivate often and as long 
as the plants permit. By training the tomato vines on 
trellises or tying to stakes, the fruit will ripen better 
and be of finer flavor. A wire fence is a good support. 
When frost is feared in the fall, pull the laden vines 
and hang in a shed or cellar and many will continue to 
ripen.

MARGLOBE—Earliest wilt resistant variety. This fine 
tomato is the result of a crossing of the Early Marvel 
with the fine flavor and form of the Globe. The meat 
is solid, has very few seeds, non-acid and has a rich red 
color, is excellent for local market and will probably 
become one of the leading canning varieties. Pkt., 10c; 
Oz., 50c; % lb., $1.50. Postpaid.
