TRAINING TOMATOES. 
The accompanying illustration shows a very simple and effective way of 
training tomatoes. The dog legs may be placed at any convenient distance 
from each other, and either wires or thin saplings may be used to connect them, 
and to act as a support to the tomato vines.

INDIAN LABOUR IN NATAL. 
The demand for indentured Indian labour in Natal is greater now than it 
has been for thirty-eight years past. The supply is unequal to the demand. 
During 1899, applications were received for 10,542. Of this number, 3,168 
arrived during 1900, and 2,186 completed their indentures, and have gone to 
swell the large number of free Indians working on their own account as farmers, 
gardeners, hawkers, &c. Freeholds are granted to British subjects (Indians) 
from@India. Large numbers are the registered owners of coast lands. The 
| total number of Indians in Natal is 61,108.
