$233 Net Profit from One-Tenth of
An Acre.
The first day of March I planted
my Stone tomato seeds for my late
crop.
The first bright days of June
brought an unusual yield of smooth,
large, ripe tomatoes from my early
plants.
These I selected, putting uniform
sizes together, wrapping each toma-
to in tissue paper. and packed them
into crates. For my largest toma-
toes I was paid SOC a dozen, and for
the rest, 35c a dozen.
1 staked, pruned and sprayed my
plants at frequent intervals during
the season. I used Bordeau mix
ture, and began spraying them about
five days before transplanting and
then every ten days until the fruit
was ripening.
From one-half of my plat I raised
forty-six bushels of early tomatoes
and my net profit from them was
S110.
Used the Home Gamer on the Sur
plus.
From my late crop gathred six
ty-one bushels of fine tomatoes. The
market now being flooded I decided
to can the remainder of my crop
and did SD according to the rules of
the government demonstration
agent and under the personal di-
rection, of Mrs. J. B. Lauderbach,
in charge Of the Hamilton county
work.
l labeled them with bright, attrac
tive Four-H brand labels, stamping
my name and address on each can.
From my late summers work my
net profit IVES $L18, making a total
net profit of $233 from the cultiva-
ton of one-tenth of an acre of
ground.
I shall, of course, be. member of
the club again this year, but shall
perhaps, increase my acreage in to-
matoes as we'll as other vegetables,
following the general lines of cult
vation and handling as practiced
last season.

MADE $223 NET ON
ONE-TENTH ACRE
How a Little Girl Made $233 Net
From Tenth of an Acre of
Tomatoes.

The best way I know to get the
most money from the least acreage
is to join tomato club and cult
vate, and handle the crop according
to government rules.
Being a member of a successful
tomato club of Hamilton County,
Tennessee, last season, 1 can GER
tainly say from practical experience
that one tenth of an acre of toma
toes, if properly cared for, will
yield the greatest profit of any vege-
table that can be grown on that
amount of land.
In the fall of the year 1913, Sc
lected a plat Of land On my. fathers
farm, 132x33 feet in size, being one
tenth of an acre of we'll drained,
sandy loam soil, almost level. This
plat had not been in cultivation for
several years. 1t is always best to
avoid soil that has been in tomatoes
the previous year, for sometimes the
plants are diseased, and the disease
may live over the winter, in the soil
communicating themselves to the
new crop. Soil where cotton has
been injured by the root knot dis
ease, should also be avoided, as
this disease is also very damaging
to tomatoes.
How l Raised the Tomatoes.
In the fail before the rainy sea-
son began 1 dynamited my plot thor
oughly, and later had it plowed
eight inches deep, and three wagon
loads of well -rotted barnyard ma
nure put on it. 1 left the soil rough
during the winter to prevent wash
liiS. iOl NY Sdlly CIOp pIttHLSu
Earliana, and for the late crop the
Stone tomato.
The first of January, 1914, I made
a hotbed according to instructions
furnished by the Department of
Agriculture, and planted my Earli-
ana seed in rows two and one-half
inches apart. When the plants had
developed their first true leaves, l
transplanted them two inches apart,
to another part of the bed. Then
when the plants had reached the
height of four or five inches I trans
planted them again, this time in tin
cans that had previously had the
tops and bottoms melted off. In
this way the plants can be left in

Full skirts have undoubtedly come
to stay for while at least. For all
that, there is no reason why the
women with several long tunic skirts
in her wardrobe should be discour-
aged, for they have not been discarded
by any manner of means. A number
Of the large French dressmakers are
using them this year with great sue
ess and in such way that the in
genious woman may follow their ex-
amples with her old skirts.
For instance, the new tunic skirts
are very long, much longer than those
of last year, showing scarcely more
than one or two inches Of the lower
skirt beneath; but to Offset this, which
looks rather difficult when your last
-eason's long tunic showed at least
six inches of lower skirt, yokes are
very much the rage, and by attaching
a tunic to yoke it will be long
enough to suit this seasons require

A Conservative Frock Developed in
Belgian Blue Rep

If the dress you wish to remodel is
of silk, or a summer fabric, very sim |
pie way of modernizing it is to add a (
lower section of two or more ruffles
and the depth of the lower skirt which
shows. l saw very pretty taffeta
dress the other day which had been
made with a flaring tunic and a very
tight lower skirt. The owner of the
dress made the lower skirt wide by in
serting a triangular piece of the ma
terial into the back seam. Two ruffles
she made of the same taffeta, with
narrow hens machine hemstitched.
These were placed onto the founda-
tion skirt, and, of course, the piecing
was hidden, and joined below the long
tunic. The dress was very smart and
looked as though it might have been
designed this season instead of last.
With little forethought and care
full studying of new designs to be seen
in the fashion magazines or fashion
sections of the newspapers many an
old dress whose style is hopeless can
be made into an up-to-date garment
which will give great deal of pleas
ure.
In my first illustration l have shown
a dress whose lines are simple enough
to suit the most conservative of tastes
and yet are so smart that wherever
the gown is seen the wearer would
pass as a well-dressed member Of So
ciety. The model is developed in Bel
gium blue ribbed material, light Of
weight and suited to the skirt whose
wide tucks give an effect to deep hems
in flounced skirt.
News from Paris says that garbar-
dine continues to be very smart. 1t has
the qualities which should endear it to
the American mind, for it is service
able and practical and comes in all the
known shades, from navy blue, black,
white, to all the shades of tan and
gray.
Checks large and checks small are
being shown for the spring suits. In
my illustration / have shown a trig
little suit with a diagonal black-and-
white check. The coat is made some
what on Norfolk lines, with a six
gored skirt cut the short ankle length,
to which length all skirts should be
cut to have the proper style this year.
Instead of shoes, to be distinctly up to
Paris styles, boots should be worn
with walking dress Of this charac-
ter. Russian boots they are called,
they button or lace up the sides and
wrinkle in mousquetaire fashion.
Empire lines are shown in every
thing. Suits are made short wasted,
The Medina sentinel. [volume] (Medina, Ohio) 1888-1961, 1915-02-12

New uniforms have been made for
the French soldiers of new shade of
blue; naturally that means it is imme-
diately copied for costumes for
women. This color, together with the
khaki-colored field cloth, are used ex-
tensively for tailored costumes, especi-
ally if they follow ever so slightly the
tendency toward the military.
Red, also military color, but in a
new brick shade, is being used great
deal, while the national colors of Bel
gium-red, yellow and black-are be-
ing combined again and again into
frocks and suits.
Small hats are the vogue in Paris.
They are loved too well by the Paris
ians to be quickly discarded. Trig
little hats of oilcloth to match cuffs
and felt are worn extensively with
tailored suits. The small hats entirely
covered with flowers are used for more
elaborate occasions. Tailored hats are
being trimmed with ribbons of large
plaid, well as in black and white
faille ribbons, and give them a distinc-
tly new look.
Large hats are slowly creeping into
view, and will no doubt hold the peo-
pie for summer, especially the old
time shape trimmed with flowers and
velvet ribbon streamers.

Colors and Fabrics Show the
Influence of the Military

with full peplums hanging from the
belt. Tailored frocks are made short
wasted, with G wide cr narrow belt;
which is attached on its upper line
only and hangs free on its lower edge,
giving a boxed effect. The evening
dresses are made distinctly after the
gowns of the Empress Josephine's
period, the waists just coming below
the bust, and the skirts longer and
fuller than those Of her time, but cling
ing gracefully to the figure.
Striped taffeta skirts have jackets
of satin matching the color in the
stripe. Voile is used exclusively, and
usually trimmed with bands Of taffeta.
Sand-colored voile skirts have brown
taffeta jackets.
Lunette is an American-made fab
ric which takes the place of the Georg-
cite crepe, which is made abroad and
has become very scarce since the war.
Whole dresses are made of it, espec-
tally for evening wear, and it is most
attractive and more durable than chif-
fon. There is an indestructible voile
which is very much like chiffon that
is also used great deal. 1t comes in
all the beautiful old-fashioned designs
in Dolly Warden and Dresden designs
as we'll as in the large figured effects
Plaid fabrics are having a renewed
vogue in Paris, although they are con-
sidered novelty rather than a staple
fabric. Black is naturally very stylish
as would be expected, when one thinks
that all France is in mourning After
black comes white. White evening
coats are considered very fashionable
also coats of white serge and garbar-
dine for the separate coat. Black and
white combined is also very good and
largely featured, and in its train pur-
pie and gray in fact, all the mourn
ing and semi-mourning colors-are
having a vogue which they will prob
ably not have until another war.
