VEGETABLE SEEDS 
H-- 
SPINACH

the first sowing early in spring and continue at intervals 
of two or three weeks, until the middle of June; sow in 
August and September for winter and early spring use; 
will mature in about 45 days. One ounce will sow 100 feet

for 24 hours before sowing. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 15c.; 14 lb-,

TOMATO 
For early plants sow in hotbeds early in March or April, 
in drills 5 inches apart and y^ inch deep; when the plants 
are about 2 inches high, transplant into another hotbed 4 
inches apart each way; plant out in the open ground early 
in May, or as soon as danger from frost is over, 4 feet 
apart each way in hills, which should have a shovelful of 
well-rotted manure mixed with the soil. Water freely at 
time of transplanting, but after the plants are well estab¬ 
lished water sparingly and at the roots only, as spraying 
the vines and overwatering causes the bloosoms to drop off; 
when the first fruit is set, pinch off the ends of the branches 
to obtain early fruit. Sufficient plants for a small garden 
can be grown in a shallow box by placing it in a sunny 
window in a warm room. For late use sow in a sheltered 
border in May, and set out the plants in July; the green 
fruit can be picked off before frost and ripened under glass. 
By training the vines on trellises or tying to stakes, the 
fruit will ripen better and be of finer quality. The fruit 
matures in 150 days.
