CANNERY TOMATOES.
AfrOnR. Well Fibcred Plants Set In
the Field In summer.
~ EDWARD L VOORHEES,.

~ EDWARD Z VOORHEES,.
For the tomato crop for canneries
the matter of plants s a very impor-
tant one Here, n IN other cases,
good plants are a necessary factor for
success. \ good crop from poor plants
can result only when all other condi-
tons are extremely favorable. If the
work Of plant growing is properly car
red out good strong, well tibered
plants should be ready for the field
from the middle to the latter part OF
June-the time when they are usually
set in New Jersey or Maryland. In
other states the planting of the seed
would naturally be little earlier thus
making the setting In the field proper
tionately earlier.
Soil and Plant Food.
The tomato as field crop is adapted
to wide variety of soils, though
medium clay loan is probably the best.
In fact, any soil well adapted TO pota-
toes will grow the tomato to good ad-
vantage. In manicuring and fertiliZing
the character Of the crop and the sea
son of its growth should be remem-
bered; hence recommendations made
for the early crop do not apply in all
cases except perhaps on the poorer
classes of soils. In the first place, the
plants are not put in the soil until
summer. when the conditions are most
favorable for the rapid change OF or
Ranic forms of nitrogen into nitrates,
and thus IL the soil has been MANFRED
or is naturally rich In vegetable matter
the additional application of nitrogen
in Immediately available forms Is not
so important. In the second place the
object of the growth Is not early ma
turity, but the largest yield of mature
fruit; hence 1t Is more desirable to
grow 4 larger plant than In the case OF
the earlier tomatoes.
An All Round Fertilizer Formula.
On a good soil which would without
manure produce five to six tons there
should be added sufficient excess of
the constituents to provide for a Mkt
mum production, and the materials
should be relatively richer In nitrogen
and potash than in phosphorc acid. A
mixture of nitrate OF soda, 400 pounds;
bone tankage, 700 pounds; acid phos
phate, 400 pounds; muriate OF potash,
800 pounds, would contain approx
mately % pounds of nitrogen, IA
pounds of phosphorie acid as pounds
OF which would be soluble and avail
abley and $50 pounds Of potash in each
ton. A dressing containing the amounts,
kinds and proportions of plant food
here indicated would be regarded as
very desirable, since one-half of the
nitrogen is in the form Of nitrate,
which would contribute to the imme-
date growth Of the plant. The amount
of soluble and available phosphoric
acid Is sufficient to satisfy the needs
OF the crop throughout Its entire
growth, and such an abundance of pot
ash Is present as to insure the matur-
lty OF both plant and fruit. Formulas
of this character haze been used with
good success.

POPULAR GARDENING

Medium early and late varieties OF
tomatoes follow nicely after early rad
ishes, spinach and crops Of that sort.
Good strong plants set in place early
in June, when danger of frost Is past,
usually give a very satisfactory crop.
A light sandy loan high and well
drained Is perhaps ideal for tomatoes,
provided it is we'll prepared and en-
riched with n quick acting fertilizer
concentrated within reach OF the roots.
Fertility in too great amount or too
widely distributed tends to growth of

sirable.

weeds at this season, and the ground
should be kept we'll stirred.
