Prof. Souder has been experimenting for some time with tomato growing and now an- nounces that if post hole digger is taken and hole bored three feet in to the ground, then fill the hole with | very rich and fine dirt, and in this plant the tomato vine, a plant will be produced which will bring forth 1 finer fruit than those planted in the old way. Prof. Souder says the roots of the plant are confined, and following the direction of least re- sistence, go down to place where they get plenty of moisture at all times. Prof. Souder reports that plants, not only of tomatoes, but beets and other vegetables, cultivated in this manner, produced three times as much fruit as those planted ill the ordinary way.
