TOMATO. 
As the plants advance in growth support them by brushwood. To have the Tomato very early it 
is necessary to start the plants in a hotbed, or they may be reared in a flower pot in a window and 
subsequently transplanted. Plants for an early crop should be raised under glass. For intermediate 
crop they may be raised on outside beds. For late crops the seed may be planted in permanent position.
