And my soul grow warm in the dear

Monster Tomato Crop.
SON Whig.J

IL NAV not be known, but probably
the finest field of tomatoes 10 Tennessee
is at HicKville. about a mile and a hall
from jackson.
A representative of the Wing in COM
pany with Hon. L. A. Enloe, Secretary
of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
went out yesterday afternoon and in
spec.ed this magnificent crop OF toma-
toes.
There are four acres in this field,
which is the property of Messrs. Hicks
and Stroud 1t is a sight worth going
miles to see. The stalks are tied to
stakes 10 the regular manner and they
are loaded with large tomatoes from top
to bottom. Mr.. Stroud informed the
visitors that he had already gathered
900 crates from 1he four acres and he ex-
pected to gather from them altogether
i 200 crates. From the appearance of
the vines it would seem that it would
not be difficult for him TO do so. He is
selling at 10 cents per crate at Chicago
and other markets. 1t will thus be seen
that the crop at these prices will amount
10 about g 600, or $3.50 per acre.
This should answer the ques-
ton as to whether the tomato
crop would pay in Madison coun-
ty. Mr.. Stroud has been in the tomato
business for the past eighteen years,
most of the time in Gibson county, and
be save he never saw finer field of them
anywhere. The species is the Triumph.
and he bias certainly made triumph IN
raising them. He stated that he put
about 600 pounds of commercial fertiliz-
er to the acre, besides some home ferti-
lizer. They have a dark, loamy soil
and grow about four feet high the toma-
toes being very large.
Mr.. Enloe is arranging to have some
of these splendid specimens preserv.
for the exhibition next year. 1t is ex-
pected that pictures also will be taken
showing this field of tomatoes.
