JEROME SAYS N. Y. WANTS TO
KILL BOAST OF THAWS

Concord, N. H., Sept. 24.-Gov.
Felker adjourned the hearing on the
extradition of Harry K Thaw and
took the case under advisement, an
nouncing that he would reach a de-
cision next Monday.
Jerome threw a bomb into the
Thaw camp when he announced that
there was no subterfuge about the
requisition papers nor about the
conspiracy charge, a Duchess
County grand jury having returned a
secret Indictment against Thaw
charging him with conspiracy in con-
neetion with his escape from Mat
teawan. Jerome said the grand jury
had delayed the indictment, awaiting
the apprehension Of another man
who is wanted in connection with
the charge.
In explaining why New York was
determined to have the Matteawan
lunatic extradited, Jerome said that
from the time of the murder of Stan
ford White it had been the boast of
the Thaws that in the end their mil
lions would prevail against justice.

PLAN MONOPOLY IN GAS AND
ELECTRIC LIGHT FIELD
Ignoring the minor stockholders
entirely, Sam insult and Henry A..
Blair are down in New York, it is
claimed, putting through a deal
whereby the Commonwealth Edison
Company and the Peoples Gas, Light
and Coke Co. will consolidate.
This gigantic merger would give
those in power a perfect monopoly
in gas and electric light, heat and
power service in Chicago.
insult and Blair are trying to
finance the deal through the National
City Bank of New York. The gas
company has $35, 900, 900 in common
stock. The insult crowd plan to get
this by forming a Massachusetts
voluntary company. The Chicago
Elevated Railways Trust has tried
this with success.
Although the report of this merger
is regarded as certain in financial
circles, most of the people involved
deny the story.
It has long been known that insult
is ambitious to consummate such a
deal before the new public utilities
bill becomes law on Jan. 1, 1914.
Roger Sullivan said he didn't think
there was anything in the talk about
a merger. He admitted that a con-
ference between the leaders of the
two companies was being held in
New York and that an increase in the
price of gas might be expected to re-
suit. sa60JlE MMo

hastenens both the growth of the
plant and the maturity of the fruit.
II the weather is favorable, Wig
orous growth sets in at once. The
lateral below the first fruit cluster is
allowed to grow, but all others are
rubbed off as soon as they appear.
This makes each plant forked one,
and the two branches are trained I'D
opposite sides of the stake. This
severe pruning is the most essen
tlal feature of the method, both for
earliness and size, as the plant is
thus allowed to set no more fruits
than it can develop to the required
size. When about eight fruit clus-
ters have been set, the tops of the
plant are pinched off and it's growth
stopped. Thereafter the plants en-
ergies are directed towards develop
ing it's fruit
About June 20, the fruit begins to
The progressive farmer and southern farm gazette., 1913-01-18

ripen, and by July Is the crop has
usually been all gathered. The fruit
is shipped to Northern markets and
usually commands high prices.
1t seems to me that in every Sec
ton where tomatoes are not grown
for market in large quantities, as
here, one or two growers near every
considerable town might make it
very profitable to raise an acre or
two in the way above described. The
earliness of the fruit and it's fine size
and appearance would command
good prices everywhere, and one or
two men growing them in this way
would have a practical monopoly of
the early market.
The three most essential features
are the frequent transplanting of the
growing plants, the heavy application
of fertilizer and the careful tying up
and pruning.

GROWING LARGE EARLY
TOMATOES.

The Method Practiced by West Ten
nessee Growers.
THIS county, Gibson, is one of the
/ best known tomato-growing Sec
tions of the South. Our method of
growing them is designed especially
to promote earliness.
This method, however, is certain
ly conductive to, at least, one other
end-size. Larger, smoother and
better-colored tomatoes are not rails
ed anywhere than are shipped from
what is known as the Humbolt to-
mato district.
The seed are sown in hotbeds
about January 20. These beds, if
small, are treated by the fermenta-
ton of stable manure; if large, by

furnace and flues The favorite
varieties are Beauty and Trucker S
Favorite. OF late, however, these
varieties have proven to be very sus-
ceptible to wilt, a new disease with
us, and no doubt, some other more
resistant variety will have to be
found.
By February Is, the plants are
large enough for the first transplant
ing. They are set in new beds and
are placed about two inches apart
each way. The bed must be kept as
near 70 degrees as possible and wa
ter must be applied with caution, or
else the plants will damp off" badly.
When the weather admits, the sash
must be lowered, so as to admit fresh
air. When the weather is cold, the
glass is covered with straw or sheets.
By March Is, the plants are ready
to be transplanted the second time.
They are then put in cold frames in
what are locally known as "dirt-
bands" one to the band. This is
thin veneer box about the size of a
strawberry box, but it has no bot
tom. These bands could hardly be
beaten for the purpose, as by their
use. the plants may be carried to the
held and set out without having their
roots the least disturbed, the dirt
pand being stripped off after the
plant has been set in the furrow. The
cold frames are in all respects like
the hotbeds, except that there is no
neat, and they are frequently cover
ed with sheets instead of glass
About April Is, the plants are car
rled to the field. The piece of land
where they are set has been selected
and prepared with great care A

plant prefers. They are set in rows

Answer by HI. NJ. Conolly:-There
may be several reasons for the per-
simmons falling, chief of which may
be neglect of the tree. If a persim-
mon tree is fed with a great deal of
nitrogen, as in stable manure, and
not enough of the other elements, as
potash and phosphoric acid, there is
a tendency for the fruit to fall.
If you give your tree good clean
cultivation, good application of acid
phosphate (two pounds) and two or
three pounds of muriate of potash,
you will no doubt have much better
results with the tree. Scatter the
fertilizer around the tree couple
of feet from the trunk and dig it into
the soil.
