TOMATO. 
This vegetable is one of the most important of all garden products. They 
thrive best in a warm, light rich soil. For early plants, sow about the first 
week in March in a liot-bed, or in boxes or pots in a warm window. When 
the plants are about two inches high, set out in boxes, three inches deep, four 
inches apart, in the same temperature, or pot singly. If again transplanted 
before setting out, the plants will be still moie stocky. Set out in the open 
ground about the first of June, four feet apart each way, using a shovelful of 
rotted manure in each hill. Keep well sheltered and watered until they are 
established, after which let the fruit have plenty of sun. One ounce for 1,500 
plants.
