THE BRUSSELS POST
A FINE EARLY
TOMATO
After many yours of careful sole-
etion a variety of the tomato has
been developed that possesses first
r:,te quality and ripens in the open in
from 05 to 100 days, The develop -
pant of this tomato began twenty-
oight years ago when the variety
Earliana was recognized to possess
ccnsiderabl,. merit. It was seen,
however, to produce plants and
fruits of considerable variation. Mr.
W. T. eleepun the Dominion Horti-
culturist, taking advantage of these
variations, started making selections
of plants showing early maturity and
heavy yield. After several genera-
tions had been grown and seed saved
iron early maturing desirable plants,
it found that this method of select-
ion had so altered the tpye of the
plants and fruit from the original
Earliana that it was decided to call
the segregation Alairity. To grow-
ers particularly in northern districts
this variety has been a great boon,
es it has made it possible for them
to grow tomatoes almost as well as
those living in more favoured local-
ities. Further improvement is how-
ever still looked for in considerable
blocks of plants grown on trial
grounds. A record of performance
is being kept of each plant showing
the yield of ripe fruit for the first
two weeks, month, the total season,
besides noting the amount or rough
fruit produced. This study of the
performance of individual plants re-
veals the desirable strain to use for
further selection work. In addition
to this a strain test is conducted to
ascertain the segregation of greatest
merit by actualy growing plants from
the selected strain side by side with
strains of other varieties.
