it is probable that they will be influenced
largely in their choice by the wishes of the

Items on Tomato Culture.

In experiments In training tomatoes,
conducted last year at the farm of the
Michigan Agricultural college, the method
hat gave greatest satisfaction consisted
4 a simple rack that was continuous
throughout the row. About every six OF
light feet a stout stake was driven on
.'ther side of the row and fifteen inches
rom the plant, the stakes when firmly
riven standing something over a foot
igh A strip of old boards was nailed
cur the tops of the posts along either
ide of the row Then edgings were
7cked across from one side TO the other,
lur about each plant and a foot apart.
he plant now found itself growing up
,etween horizontal edgings, and as it be
an to lop the rack held it above the
ground. Upon this simple rack the
omatoes needed no tying nor training,
nd they spread themselves freely to the
,unlight. The circulation of the air under
he racks was so free that there was no
unusual danger from rot. This is Ge-
idedly the best rack tried. 1t was noticed
.lso that the fruit ripened more uniformly
lere than on the plants which were tied
o stakes,
On the same grounds some observations
we're made in tomato rot, which makes its
irst appearance as a slight, spotty discol
