TOMATOES 
Six to eight ounces to an acre; one ounce to 1,500 i^lants. 
Culture—The seed may be started in hotbed in March, or 
sufficient plants for family use can be grown in pots or boxes 
indoors with very little trouble. Be particular to give plants 
the benefit of fresh air and sun whenever judicious, for the 
puri>ose of hardening them, and cover with mats when neces¬ 
sary to prevent them from frosting. The two extremes of 
heat and cold are equally injurious. It is customary with the 
best gardeners to remove the plants from hotbeds to the cold 
frames, allowing a distance of several inches between the 
plants. In April select and prepare the soil and set the plants 
3 feet each way. Hoe and draw earth to the stems. When 
the plants crowd, the fruit will be small. Have the soil very 
rich. For general crop sow from the middle of April or dur¬ 
ing May. The number of days on varieties shown means the 
time from setting of plants. To prevent blossom end rot and 
blight, spray plants when young with Pyrox—it is a splendid 
fungicide and insecticide. For healthier tomato plants treat 
seeds before sowing with Semesan. Its results are really 
wonderful. 
All prices on Tomato seeds are postage paid.

Master Marglobe 
MASTER MASGIiOBE. (Certified seed). (83 days). This Special Strain 
seed is taken from tomatoes of the first, or crown set, from plants which 
were grown from vine-selected stock seed. This method of selection brings 
the Marglobe into production just a little earlier. The Marglobe was de¬ 
veloped by Dr. Pritchard of the United States Department of Agriculture. 
It is rust- and wilt-resisting; fruits are a globe shape; seed cavities small; 
flesh firm and of a very attractive bright red color. Marglobe is one of 
the very b^t main crop tomatoes. It is a good shipper and canner. It has 
a sturdy vine which carries the fruit well, with plenty of foliage to protect 
its fruit. It is one of the heaviest yielders among the midseason varieties.
