CULTURE—Days indicated represent the time required 
_ from the setting of plants to produce marketable fruits. One 
ounce of seed should produce 2,000 plants. Tomatoes do best 
on light, warm, not over-rich soil. Success depends in a large 
measure upon securing a rapid, vigorous, unchecked growth 
during the early part of the season. For first early tomatoes 
_ select varieties of the earliest types, and start the plants under 
_ glass in hot beds or greenhouses during February and March. 
When the plants are about 2 inches high they should be 
transplanted to flats, pots or plant boxes. Never crowd the 
plants, but keep them short and stocky. Plants already in

TOMATOES 
bloom, if in pots or boxes, may be transplanted to the open 
ground without disturbing their roots, and will continue to 
bloom and fruit without check. When danger from frost has 
passed, set the plants in the field in rows about 4 feet apart 
each way, in warm, mellow soil of fair fertility. For main crop 
the plants can be started somewhat later in hot beds or cold 
frames and then set in the open ground the same as the early 
varieties. Tomatoes require very little water, just enough to 
keep them in good growing condition; too much water will 
cause them to blight. Cultivate often and thoroughly as long 
as the vines will permit. The last two or three workings of the 
soil should be shallow or the crop may be badly injured.
