MAKING PROFIT IN TOMATOES
Secret Of Inducing Vines to Bear Album.
dance Of Fine Red Fruit 10 to Cut
Away Beeders.

Not all who raise tomato vines In
abundance pick abundance Of toma
toes. Last year there were many who
had prolific vines who picked no to-
matoes. The cause was simple, writes
Frank e. Ward of Lawrence, Kan, In
the Kansas City Star. In the wet,
cool spring the vines grew to an I'M
natural size Then there was not root
enough to make fruit In the hot
weather.
Wet and rich soil causes bleeuers to
sprout from the crotch between the
leaf and the main stalk or trunk. II
those are allowed to grow they be-
come many feet long and there will be
but little fruit. If they are pinched off
as soon as they appear, say once a
week, the excess growth will be forced
into the fruit and it will be ready to
ripen as soon as the sun Is hot.
Should the bleeders grow unnoticed
until three or four leaves are develop
ed it is better to pinch off the small
points and thus stop their growth,
than to cut away the whole b.eeder.
When a cluster of buds form on a
branch which is not near the main
trunk the small end of the branch
should be pinched off to prevent the
leaves robbing the fruit. In that way
the vines are kept within bounds, You
will see by this that the fruit lateral Is
not to be mistaken easily for a
bleeder.
The above sytem of pruning Is not
original with me. 1t Is used by many
with favorable results. In my gar.
den of clay SOIL 30x50 feet, last year
raised 400 pounds Of tomatoes, which
is about all one family needs In a

BY no means the smallest source OF
net profit is the manure.
Oats should be sown early, Just as
soon as the land can be made ready.
Lime from the sugar beet factory Is
a very valuable product for the soil.
More profit can be made on one
acre Of onions than on ten acres Of
corn.
Long straw manure should be piled
and each layer plastered SO 1t will rot
quickly.
1t is a good plan to shorten the tops
Of cabbage, cauliflower, onions and
similar plants when they are trans.
planted.
Potatoes produce wonderful crops
in proportion to the amount Of seed
planted.
Every garden should have a few
OF the aromatic herbs for seasoning
and other kitchen use.
Fine rotted manure from the sta.
bles may be applied with great bene-
fit to the grass II spread early.
Onions have been cultivated sue.

Any drainage system should be plan

A very youthful and entirely I'M

verses by the renowned Thomas Moore
which he liked very much. Forthwith
the buzz of inspiration circulated
through his brain, and the next thing
he knew he had evolved tune which
went right prettily with the words Of
the Irish poet. Much elated, the very
youthful composer took the product to

but little time and no expense and it
Is the height of folly for a farmer to
plant seed and 60 to all the expense
necessary to accomplish that work,
without first knowing what kind OF
seed he is planting.
After the seed corn has been Sc
lected and has passed all of the in
spections which show that it is per-
feet to the eye, further inspection is
necessary for terminating quality,
This can be done only by using a
seed tester. Such an implement can
be readily made by anyone on the
farm.
An ordinary cigar box with two
inches of sand in it will make an ex
cellent seed tester. When ready TO-
testing, the sand in the box should
be thoroughly wetted, enough water
being used to cover the sand. Hold
1t in this position four or five minutes,
then wet a muslin cloth and we are
ready to set In place the kernels to
be tested. After the ears have all
been numbered, we may begin with
ear No. /. and remove one kernel
about two inches from the tip, and
another kernel about two inches from
the butt; then by sticking them In
pairs into the sand, we will have
this ear ready for testing. Follow
the same method with the second ear,
and SO on, until the kernels from ten
ears are placed in the first row. BY
counting down the rows, and noting
the kernels that have failed to ger
inmate, we will have no difficulty in
locating the bad ears.
After the seed tester has received
all of the kernels that can be planted
conveniently, place over the kernels
the wetted muslin rag. This seed
tester should then be placed in the
kitchen or any other warm situation.
It should be examined every day to see
