14 Reliable Garden Seed 
The STORRS & HARRISON CO. 
TOMATOES 
One Ounce of Seed Should 
Produce 3000 Plants 
CULTURE. Sow in hot¬ 
beds during March. When the 
plants have 4 leaves, trans¬ 
plant 4 to 5 inches apart, in 
shallow boxes, and give plenty 
of air. Set out-of-doors as soon 
as danger from severe frosts is 
over. Seed may be sown in the 
open ground also at this time. 
Many planters prefer training 
the plants to stakes and keep¬ 
ing them pruned. Use stakes 2 
inches square, 5 or 6 feet long. 
The main stem and two branch¬ 
es should be saved, cutting the 
others off just beyond the first 
clusters of blossoms. This 
treatment allows all the fruits 
to develop to perfection and 
none are lost from rotting on 
the ground.
