Tomatoes at the maryland Station


In bulletin of the Maryland station
are given data in regard to the testing
of SO varieties of tomatoes, from which
1t is learned that as regards earliness
the best results were obtained with Ear.
lest of All, Table Queen, Paragon: Igao.
tum No. 10, Long Keeper, Michigan,
Cumberland Red and Favorite.
The largest yield were given by Balti.
more Prize Taker, Cumberland Red,
I. Chem;n No. 5, Mitchell, Money Maker,
Paragon, Perfection, Purple Queen, Red
Queen and Royal Red.
An experiment with different ferti-
lizers for tomatoes is also reported. The
results were undoubtedly materially af-
fected by unfavorable weather. The
largest yield was given by the plat on
which dissolved boneblack was used
alone, and the next largest where com,
plete fertilizer was applied.

The Cherry Orchard,

Professor Budd of the Iowa station
says that a cherry orchard does best
when planted thickly in rows running
north and south and giving wider space
between the rows to admit the sun and
allow free circulation of air. Orchards
where the rows were "a feet apart and
the trees 10 feet apart in the row have
done better than those planted in the
usual way. He also thinks root graft
ing of the cherry is better than budding.

WHEAT FOR SEED.
Choose the Driest, Heaviest and Hardest
WheatS-Ayoid Immature Wheats.

Choose the Driest, Heaviest and Hardest
wheats-Avoid Immature Wheats.
Professor H. L. Bolley of the Indiana
experiment station has the following to
say in relation to conditions affecting
the value Of wheat for seed:
The qualifications of different samples
of wheat for seed purposes vary with
each sample. Each should be studied as
to it's own merits. When in doubt, the
driest, heaviest, hardest, best market
grades of wheat are the ones to rely upon
for seed purposes.
Immature wheats, no matter what the
cause, whether drought, attack of rust
or premature harvest, are weakened in
seed value because of lack of full food
supply in the grain and perhaps imma
turity of ths germ. Mixed varieties of
seed should not be sown because there
will be inequality in ripening.
The best grades Of frosted seed possess
less strength in their first growth from
the grain than is the case with best
grades of mature wheat. Wheat chat
has been wet and subject to freezing and
thawing during the winter cannot safely
be used as seed without being tested.
Any seeds which have at any time been
heated because of moisture when in
bulk are very liable to have been in
iured beyond ability to grow.
II stacks are made from well cured.
mature wheat and remain dry through
out the winter, the wheat thrashed from
such in the spring will be as good seed
as if otherwise stored. Wheats thrashed
from the shock in the spring of 1899
after winter bleaching were generally
dead.
The growtrof q crop of wheat is de-
pendent upon SO many and varying con-
ditions that no positive rules Of pro-
cedure which shall invariably result in
success can be laid down. Conditions
of temperature and moisture in both
soil and atmosphere and physical condi-
tions of the soil, either at the time Of
sowing or during the period Of growth,
must necessarily vitality inference the re-
suit. whatever the character of the seed
sown.
Thus the stooling of the grain is chiefly
uGU6uuGuU uOOa SOAolulOlio VI &iiOAopceAS
at the time of stooling, SO that in dry
season stocling is deficient when from
the same amount of seed sown stooling
would have been abundant during q
moist season. and the quantity of seed
sown sufficient in the latter case would
have been insufficient in the former. Be-
cause of such facts failure may actually
follow practice based on the general
rules of procedure, and, OF the other
hand, success may result from practice
not usually satisfactory, and which uh-
der other conditions would inevitably
have resulted in failure; therefore, al
though an occasional successful crop
may under certain conditions result
from the using of inferior seed, this prac-
tice in the end can only result in failure.
