TREATED O SEED 
Hints on cultivation —Tomatoes require plenty of phosphate in the soil. They should not be watered except when really necessary in pro¬ 
longed dry weather. A plentiful supply of water will weaken and otherwise spoil the flavor of the fruit and cause a rank growth of plant and 
a minimum of fruit. Sow the seed of the earliest sorts under glass or indoors about the middle of February, prick off the young seedlings into 
flats allowing about 4 inches apart, or grow as pot plants. These sowings should bear fruit about the middle of June. For main crop sow the 
seed of Second early and Main Crop sorts in a hotbed towards the end of March. Protect the young plants outdoors from cut worms by placing 
a cardboard or soup can having the bottom cut out, around the stems.
