What garden would be complete without its well-laden tomato plants promising to. the 
household those cool salads, those creamy soups and tempting hot supper dishes; fon which the 
fomato is known. Tomato plants are quite simple to grow, as they may be either sown in 
hotbeds or sown in flats in the house, allowing 5 to 6 weeks to grow plants large enough for 
setting outdoors when the weather becomes warm. In sowing the seed sow in rows 3 inches apart 
and cover with 14 inch of soil, transplanting them when they are 2 inches tall into 3 inch pots 
or may be planted 4 inches apart in rows either in flats or in the hotbed. Later plant them in 
the garden when danger of freezing is over. Plants planted in the field 4 feet between rows and 
3 or 4 in the row, depending on type of Tomato and climatic conditions. One ounce of seed 
produces two thousand to two thousand five hundred plants. 
THE DIENER TOMATO “KING OF ALL TOMATOES”’—This 
tomato originated by Richard Diener has proven in every 
respect far superior to any variety now existing. The size 
of the first fruit reaches the weight of three pounds, but 
the average is about one pound. The yield is very heavy. 
The flesh is very solid and perfectly filled out, leaving no 
hollows. For this reason it is very valuable for dehydrating 
or canning. Canned, this tomato has the finest flavor of any 
tomato known. It is used in great quantities by California’s 
largest canneries. The flesh is magnificent, dark red and 
very sweet and free from acid. It produces very few 
seeds, so is exceptionally fine for catsup and best for tomato 
juice. Pkg. 15¢; % oz. 50c; 1 oz. $1.00.
