No garden should be without its quota of Tomatoes. They require little 
care and yield heavily in a small space. No vegetable can be put to more 
uses, cooked or in salads, than Tomatoes. They are exceedingly wholesome, 
rich in vitamins, and valuable as an appetizing dish in many ways. Tomato- 
juice is a delightful, refreshing, and healthful beverage highly recommended 
by physicians. 
The production of our Tomato seed is under the supervision of trained, ex¬ 
perienced, and qualified seed-breeders; each individual type is rigidly selected 
and bred for earliness, productivity, and uniformity in size, shape, and color.

Culture. For early fruit, sow thinly in a 
hotbed or indoors in shallow boxes. Harden 
plants by exposing to the air occasionally. In 
about 6 weeks the plants will be ready to set 
out, provided danger of frost is over. The 
rows should be 4 to 5 feet apart and the plants 
about 3 feet apart in the row, or 2 feet in row 
if staked. Cultivate as long as the vines will 
permit. Tomatoes are much improved in 
appearance and quality, when trained to 
stakes. The usual method is to set one strong 
plant to a 5- or 6-foot stake, tying the plant 
up and pruning it quite freely as the vine 
advances in growth. One ounce will produce 
1500 plants; 4 to 6 ounces will furnish suffi¬ 
cient plants for an acre.
