For this purpose they are not too
large to be used whole.
The pear tomato is one Of the most
useful The beautiful red and yellow
pear-shaped fruit is about as large
as a plum and may be used either
green or ripe. The peach bears no re-
semblance to a tomato, but has the
shape and color as well as the downy
appearance of the peach. This may
be used as a dessert fruit and makes
rich fig like preserve. The cherry
tomato is one of the dearest little
fruits imaginable. Just the size and
color of a red cherry, it may be used
in many ways. II makes the prettiest
garnish of any of the small-fruited
tomatoes.
Then there is the currant tomato,
in red and yellow. These are too
seedy for many people, but are very
pretty to look at. The husk tomato
is an old variety. Unlike the above
sorts, the fruits are enclosed in a
husk. They are full of seed, but. like
the fig. the seeds are SO small they
are not Objectionable and the favor
is delicious. This sort makes a rich
preserve, liked by almost everyone,
and is also good when made into
sweet pickle. There is a purple va
riety. The husk plants are said to
grow best in poor soil. the fruits OF
these also fail from the plant when
ripe and will self sow if you do not
eat them as fast as they fall. The
small-fnuited tomato is small only in
the size of its fruit, the plants grow
ing as large as other varieties; they
should be supported and cultivated in
the same way

this year? The old standbys are good
and we need them. but something new
adds zest to gardening.
There are ever so many gardens
where no chard is grown, the owners
depending on spinach and the thin
nings from the rows of beets for their
supply of greens. Swiss chard, or
spinach beet, does not make edible
roots, like the regular garden beet,
but is grown entirely for its leaves,
which make the sweetest, most deli
cious green's that can be grown In the
garden. One who is fond of green's
will find more good eating in one
five-cent package of chard seed than
can be imagined.
And then it is so easy to grow!
Once started a row will furnish greens
all summer, and even after all else
in the grader had been killed by
frosts, tender leaves can be cut from
the chard
The tomato is one of the most popu-
lar of all vegetables, and deservedly
so, being useful in a great variety of
ways, as well as claiming the dis
tinction of being the handsomest of
all vegetables. One or more varieties
of the large sorts may be found in
every garden; but there is another
class Of equally useful tomatoes now
| listed in nearly all the catalogues.
which as yet has not been taken seri-
ously. The small-fruited varieties are
seldom grown, being looked upon as
| purely ornamental. In fact, they are
as useful in their way as the larger
sorts, being fine for salads, and they
make delicious pickles and preserves.

Right Fertilizers
| for Old Orchards

Have you an old orchard that
would repay you for rejuvenating it q?
Aside from the question of pruning it
may, or may not. be necessary to
use commercial fertilizers and to Gull
tivate the ground.
If crops were grown in the orchard
during its early years, until there is
but little humus left, it is not likely
that fertilizers which do not supply
vegetable fiber will have much effect,
nor will cultivation prove effective in
all cases. On soil where the roots
are near the surface, blowing may do
harm. If it is evident that there is
a lack of humus, this must be supplied
by top-dressing with manure, to
which may be added a good grade
of commercial fertilizer, of at least
double the quantity used on farm
crops. Or, If the trees are not too
large, it may be possible to grow
some cover-crop, using fertilizers
also.
If the trees lack vigor, fifty to one
hundred pounds of nitrate of soda
per acre, applied as the buds are
opening, will prove useful. In the
fall or spring, use one hundred
pounds of sulphate Of potash and
two hundred pounds of bone meal
per acre. These quantities are tenta-
tive, as the exact amounts needed
cannot be foretold.
1t is well to stimulate the growth
of grass with nitrate of soda in an
uncultivated orchard, thereby increas-
ing the supply of humus. If the sod
is broken up. and the ground culti-
waited and leguminous crops grown,
less nitrate of soda is required Poor
ly colored fruits and heavy foliage
Indicate that there is sufficient sup
ply of nitrogen.
1t is well to remember, however,
that Iight-colored fruit does not al
ways show that there is too much
nitrogen. 1t may do so il there is a
vigorous growth, but poor celebration
may result when the foliage is greatly
weakened by disease, or when too
much fruit Is left on the tree to ma
ture properly, or when the water
supply is limited.
