SOME SECRETS OF TOMATOES
Off, Allowing But One Main Vine
to Establish Growth.

In choosing tomato plants for grow
ing prize tomatoes, do not select tree
tomatoes, as they are not prolific, but
pick out some good, smooth, meaty
variety. Set the plant on the south
side of the stake, about four inches
from it, and train same to stake as it
grows, tying with binder Irvine or
cloth strings, which are preferable.
Many times when the vines are very
rank two branches will start to grow
from the top, but clip one off, allow
ing only one to grow to a height Of
five feet, then clip the tops, and keep
them clipped, watch will hasten the
ripening, and convert all the strength
of the vine into fruit.
When the plants are eight or ten
inches high, little runners or shoots
will appear in the forks. Here, writes
c. P. Bowlesly in the Farm and Home,
is where the whole secret lies. These
runners sap the main vine and turn
all the strength into vines instead Of
tomatoes. When they appear pinch
them off and allow only one main vine
to grow. The fruit buds or blossoms
will also appear in the same fork, but
do not disturb them. Keep clipping
out the runners every time you find
any or when you cultivate them. The
fruit will be nice, early, clean. handy
to pick, a great improvement over the
cid way.

At Home and Abroad

Mention has been made of the fact that in the hearing by the corporation commission. of the complaint of the Pacific Creamery company, it was brought out that the company was selling condensed milk at points far removed. notwithstanding the cost of the freight. at the same prices 1t charged local consumers.
 That does not signify, as the un- thinking might suspect, that local dealers were being charged exorbitant prices but rather that the company was obliged to content itself with less than a reasonable profit elsewhere to meet competition.
 Tariff reformers have often pointed to the fact that American products are sometimes sold abroad. cheaper than at home. Assuming that profits on goods sold at home were reason able though in all cases they may not have been, there could be no doubt of the right of American pro- ducers to accept less than a reason able rate abroad to meet foreign com petition.
 There is still, however, another req son. though it is not generally under stood, why American goods may be sold cheaper abroad. but that has nothing to do with the present dis cussion. It is because of the differ ent system of distribution in foreign countries. which is attended to by agents without the expensive adver- tising which in this country is insep- arable from distribution.

Would Forget It

It is almost impossible now to drag a thick and thin Arizona democrat into a conversation bearing upon the recall of the judiciary. Now and then one takes occasion to denounce Presi- dent Taft for insisting that the recall provision of our constitution should be modified by the exemption of judges. but further than that the Ari- zona democrat will not go. He has before him the record and more re- cent utterance of Governor Wilson on the judicial recall. He does not like to face the situation of voting for his candidate and at the same time, of advocating principle denounced by his candidate.
 But before the governor became the candidate, even at a time when it did not seem probable that he would b.

 Throughout the campaign last fall it was announced that the first thing to be done was the reinstatement of the original recall provision. It was undertaken with a vim when the legislature met, but the enthusiasm oOzed until near the close of the SeS- sion it was doubted whether any ac- tion would be taken. It was finally perfunctorily taken and then there seemed a disposition to forget it.
 After the nomination the question was violently revived by an inquiry. purely formal, of course, by NIT. F.. E Ellinwood of Bisbee. of the .ew York Times. regarding the attitude of Gov ernor Wilson toward the judicial re- call of course, MT. EllinWood was as thoroughly aware of the attitude of the governor as the editor of the Times could have been. Nor, is it to be supposed that MT. Ellinwood's pur- pose in reviving the subject, was to iniure the democratic candidate. He was already aware of the change of Arizona democratic sentiment regard ing the recall. We suspect that it was only the purpose of MT.

But that win be done as early as pos sible so that shortly we will be rid of the nuisance of dual system. We of any other system in the country and perhaps better than that of the coast towns where the service has never been regarded as standard.
 The Mountain States company has established a record for efficiency throughout the territory covered by it and, of course, that efficiency will be carried into the new territory which it has acquired.
 Whether the automatic or the manual system shall prevail has not yet been determined upon. The rep resentatives of the Mountain States company who have gone over the Overland property are inclined to the retention of the automatic system, for two reasons One is that there is large sum of money. d little less than $2OO,O00 tied up in it and the other is that the style of automatic put in by the Overland was, and still is. about the latest word in telephone equipment
 But whether it should be retained or whether an improved manual sys- tenn should prevail the patrons are as- sured of a good telephone service.
