TOMATOES GOOD ANY STYLE.
Did you know that the tomato is
the handiest vegetable that there is,
and that there are more uses for 1t
than for any other vegetable? Ger
tainly there is no vegetable, unless
it be the potato, which is used all
the year round as the tomato. 1t is
good boiled and fried and plain. 1t
is delicious for soups and unequaled
for salads, and 1t is splendid just as
it, comes right off the vine.
Tomatoes grow easily, but they
have an enemy that you must be on

Simple to Put Up.
Tomatoes are very simply canned
All you have to do is to dip them in
hot water for a few minutes and
then remove the skins. Then cut
them up and place in an aluminium
or porcelain Lined kettle and add a

of the jar from the boiling water,
being careful not to touch the inside
