NOW POTATOES ABB T B iirow Some and Keep Down the High Prices, TOMATOES ALSO A GOOD LINE. But All Danger of Frost's Should Be Passed Before Tender (Drops° Put in the Ground. (By S. C. JOIINSTON, Vegetable Specialist, Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) Some of our vegetables 'are very tender and 'should not bo planted until after all danger of frost is over. It must be remembered that because the soil is ready to receive the plants it is not absolutely necessary that the grower should set the plants out. Potatoes planted out between. 24th May and even the first of June will give excellent results. Tomatos may be set out after the 6th of June and. good returns expected, as some sea- sons a easons`a severe frost destroys many tomato plants as late as June 6th. Vine crops such as cucumber and squash may be planted after all dan- ger of frost is over. POTATOES. Potatoes are one crop which may be planted on land which is considered to be DA a very rough condition. Possibly there is no better crop to be planted on land which has been in sod for, a number of years. 1Vledium-sized tubers of. good quality should, be secured and they should he cut so that there are at least-two•eyes in each piece or set. It is a good plan in a small garden to have the soil prepared fairly well, then cut the seed and "commence planting. Furrows may be made with the hoe about six inches deep and two feet apart. The sets may be placed twelve inches apart in the bottom of.. the furrow and should be covered with ,two inches of soil. This will leave the young plant more or less in a trench. As the plants grow the soil will be gradually drag ed up and the trench will be filled. It will be necessary to - cultivate the soil between the rows so as -to keep down weeds, and at the same time soil should he gradually drawn up to the tops in sufficient qu:aiitities so that the growing roots will not be exposed to the sunlight, which will cause them to turn green and be of inferior, quality. If an. early variety has been planted and a vigorous growth has resulted it is possoble that some may be fit to dig in August. 13y removing some of the soil from around a hill with the hand one can tell whether they are fit to dig. If the potatoes are grown for winter use they do not need to be dug until quite late in the fall. The tops will die down at the first frost, but it is not absolutely necessary that they he dug immediately. They should, how- ever, be dug before there is any severe frost. TOMATOES. The tomato is one of the most popular ' vegetables either fresh or in a preserved con- dition. It may be grown quite easily in the backyard. The better practice with tomatoes is to purchase the plants ready for transplanting rather than attempting to grow these plants if one. has not had experience in handling a hot -bed. Plants having a' large root system are best, and the stock in any case should at least be the size of a lead pencil. The soil should be thoroughly prepared be- fore planting time, possibly a crop of lettuce or radish may be taken from , the same, ,but it is always advisable ' to have plenty of 'manure incorpor- • ated in the soil. A shallow hole may be made with the cenilnon hoe to in- sert the _roots of the tomato plant. These roots should be thoroughly watered so that the soil will cling close to the roots when they are set put in the garden. The plant should be set fairly deep and the earth should be firmed around the 'roots. If the season is dry and hot, water may be poured around the plant in order to facilitate growth. These plants may be set two feet apart if they are to be trained on stakes and kept from covering a large space in the garden. These stakes should be preferably six feet long, two inches wide, and one inch thick. They may be driven into the soil a few days after the plant has been set out and the plants tied up to the stick with a piece of twine or cotton in such a manner that the tie will be directly under the leaf. As the plant de- velopes in size in front of each leaf a'slender growth called a side shoot will appear. These must be removed by pressing them.. out 'with the thumb when very small. Four or five ties will be necessary to support - the plant. As a' result of the staking fruits of a superior quality will ripen earlier than those grown on the ground. CELERY Celery may be grown in. many garden soils if they have been heavily dressed with manure. For the backyard gardener it will be much better if the plants are se- cured ready for setting out about the 24th of May. All the plants should be set on the level from six to eight inches apart in the row and from two feet to thirty inches be- tween the rows, It will be found necessary to water celery more than `any other 'crop in the garden, and the soil between " the rows should be stirred constantly. In the fall when the celery has reached sufficient height it will be found necessary to blanch it. Possibly the best me- thod being to stand twelve inch boards against the rows of plants, holding them in position with. stakes at each end. In from ten days to two weeks the celery plantswill have grown considerably, and owing to the exclusion of the light .will have become fairly well whitened, which improves the quality. The eelery plants should be used as soon as pox- sible after bleaching. Other methods of bleaching celery aro the drawing of earth up around. the 'plant grad- ually, commencing when the head of tate plants are about four illches ilDwve the ground.
