HURON & M1DDL ESEX GAZETT Et EXETER, JNT., CANADA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 9th 1907, Culture of Tomatoes. (Contributed.) The use of our garden tomato for culinary purposes dates back only about one hundred years. Many now living remember when the to.. mato was ;grown as a curiosity more than as an article of food. It is a native of South America but.. its botanical construction is each that it may be clitnated in far northern region Last year totnatoes grew and ripened nicely in Edmonton, slut Last year was an exceptionally good year. They grow year after year in cold Montreal and the farmers sometimes dispose of then] as low as 10 and 15 cents a bushel. There are tnatly varieties of to- matoes, some are so small that they are called current tomatoes, they grow in clusters of 25 or 30 on a single branch. Others are .tike cherries aid cluster 8 to 12 on a stem, then others again are like plumbs. But the greatest excellency we first in our large, srnooth, red garden tomato. The cultivation of this plant in 1Iie 11, S. is simply% enormous. One seed house grew and sawed in one year 20.000 lbs. of seed, while 111 0,10 year the canning factories put up 250,000,000 3-1b. cans besides millions of gallon cans and hundreds of 4housands of bar- rels of pulp for catsups. The cul- ture is only 4n its infancy in Can- ada. The first thing 4o consider in this connection is the 'raising of plants. Manure hot beds are better ithan green houses with nrtificial heat. These hot beds tiro placed on a dry spot, lettere there will he no stand- ing tvater after the hardest show- ers. The beds should be laid out east and west, the north side of ithe frame being; 16 inches high. while the south side is but 10 inches high. First of all. lIowever, the earth should be removed to a depth of 10 inches, 2 feet tomer each way than the frame you have made. Tho us- ual size of Ilot beds are 6 feet wide by any length desired. The sash are made 3x0 'ft. Now build and pack the matured manure (before the frame is ],laced) ton height of about .3 feet, be sure to .have Oho manure well mixed if it is of dif- ferent (grades. This is very essen- tial to insure uniformity of ,hent in the growing of the plants. Now level the top and set your frame the 16 inch Bide 'to t he alorth. The frame should be CO constructed to easily 'knock down" to More away for next year. Now That your frame is made had sot till in the soil which should the carefully ,pre• pared and sifted. 'rich sandy .looms, or sandy clay loom. This should he mixed with finely pulverized well rotted mature and a little coal and wood ashes. This soil Tests direct- ly on the bed of manure. Now make the soil perfectly level and sow the Feed in drills 2 or 3 inches apart to ade th 1 t of 3•S of an inch, at thr. rate of 10 to 20 seeds to the inch and thin out to 1.4 to 1-2 inch 'apart. Another way is ito take n pieee of 2 by 4 scantling, long enough to reach across the bed and Press this into the ground edgewise, leaving an impression 3-S of nn inch deep and 2 inches wide. Scatter the seed in this channel and cover with soil. Make these rows ,0r channels 2 ins. apart. Seed should he. 'sown in this locality from the 1st to 10th of Apt. to be ready for !11e field by dune 1. The next letter swill be on "cold franeesel VIC1'OI UA 8110118 For Ladies are the test shoes made.
