Grow Perfect Tomatoes 
In a Small Back-Yard Garden 
j—Select a sunny location, as the direct heat 
of the sun is needed to ripen the fruit. 
2—Dig the holes 18 inches deep and 2% feet 
apart. 
3—-Put a foot of compost in each hole and 
cover it with one inch of soil. 
4—Cut off all branches from plants and set 
them so that the roots touch the soil in 
bottom of hole. Then fill in all around 
plant with good garden loam. 
Note—The entire plant should be below 
the ground except the 2 upper leaves, 
which rest on the surface. New roots will 
grow out all along the stem, giving the 
plants more strength and vigor. 
5—Make paper collars 3 inches wide, from any 
stiff paper, and insert 144 inches in the 
ground around the plant, and extending 
the same distance above, to protect stems 
from cutworms. 
6—When plants are about 1 foot high, provide 
sturdy supports and as they grow, tie them 
firmly each week to the supports, with soft, 
wide strips of cloth. 
7—Keep soil well cultivated while plants are 
growing and later mulch them with 3 
inches of grass clippings. 
8—Keep vines healthy by _ spraying them 
regularly with ACME KOPPER KING, to 
control blight, mildew, wilt and leaf spot.

Tender Turnip for Your Talle 
below for growing perfect tomatoes. 

One ounce will sow 125 feet of drill—2 
pounds per acre in drills; 3 pounds broadcast. 
CULTURE—Turnips and Rutabagas do best 
in highly enriched, light loam soil. In rich soil 
and cool weather, they grow rapidly, without 
becoming bitter in flavor. Sow in April, in 
drills 12 to 15 inches apart, and thin out to 
stand 8 inches apart in the row. Rutabagas 
require a longer growing season than turnips 
and need more moisture. When full grown, 
they should be pulled, topped and stored ina 
cool cellar or pit. IF cool and sufficiently 
moist to prevent withering, they will keep all 
winter.
