THE BEST TOMATOES 
Culture. Sow seed in March and April in the hotbed, or in pots in a sunny 
exposure in the house. If it is desired to make very stocky plants they may 
be transplanted when about 2 to 3 inches high. When 5 or 6 inches high, 
if the ground has become warm, transplant to the open ground, on a rainy 
or cloudy day. Set the plants 4 feet apart each way; the dwarf sorts may 
be planted closer. 
Archias* Selected Ponderosa 
A purple-pink, main crop Tomato of the largest size. The vines are vig¬ 
orous and very productive. The fruit is solid with exceptionally few seeds; 
fairly smooth and considered of very good quality, especially by those who 
prefer a Tomato quite free from acid. It is a very desirable Tomato for slicing
