TOMATO 
CULTURE.—Tomatoes do best on a light, warm, not 
over-rich soil, and much of the success in growing them 
depends on securing a rapid, vigorous, unchecked growth 
during the early part of the season. Sow in hotbed dur- 
ing March, or from 6 to 8 weeks before they can be set 
out into open ground; when the plants have four leaves, 
transplant into shallow boxes, setting them 4 to 5 inches 
apart. Plant in open ground as soon as all danger of 
frost is over, about 4 feet apart each way. 
Beefsteak. 90 days from setting plants. This splendid 
Tomato, also known as Red Ponderosa, is much thicker

let-crimson with smooth skin. It is enormously pro- 
lific and early for such a large Tomato. A main-crop 
variety for both home- and market-garden use.
