WORD ABOUT LATE TOMATOES
Plants Set Out Now Should Begin to
Bear Freely by Middle of August

Plants Set Out Now Should Begin to
Bear Freely by Middle of August
''It is not yet too late to set out
tomato plants" said a well-known
farmer Wednesday, July 4th, in dis
cussing the food situation. "Most
of US are crazy to get the first toma-
toes. bot after that neglect the to-
mato crop. 1t is one of the best
money savers poor man can have in
his yard or garden.
plants set out now and given a
little attention should begin 70 bear
freely by the middle of August. If
you are DESTROYS of canning the fruit,
the later tomatoes are better than
those of the first crop, as they are
not inclined to be so watery. Plants
put out now should be trained up on
racks or trellises of some kind, or
kept off the ground by placing brush
under the vines. Tomatoes that come
in contact with the ground are mighty
apt to be soft on one side, or even
rOtted, while those grown on plants
kept free from the ground so that the
sun and air have a chance at them
are generally perfect fruit. have
raised many tomatoes in my time
and for late fruit | much prefer the
Ponderosa, as it is large fruit
sometimes growing to a weight of
l 1-2 to l 3-4pounds. and the centre
core is as good for food as any part
of the tomato. 1t makes an excellent
variety for canning as there is so
much of it that time is saved in
preparing it for the cans.
Amy man can grow tomatoes if
he will give them half a chance to
grow. Just stick your plant in some
out of the way corner in the backyard
and occasionally pour a little dish
water around the roots. There is
nothing better and you can not very
we'll give the plant too much.
"When the cool days of fall come,
try the tomatoes fried with a thin
strip of bacon or ham, or serve them
with dressing some evening with
bread, butter and coffee. They are
almost complete meal in themselve:
and once used are mighty apt to fine
a place on your table in the future.

Taylor and Robbins was appointed to
wait upon the Jail Commissioners
with the request that the practice of

that at the present time there is no
excuse for any able-b bodied man being

ious to secure help. The committee

The II federal land banks have appli
cations for approximately $100. 900,

able to fill.
The board has just offered an issue
of $50. 900. 900 in farm loan bonds
paying 4 IL per cent. interest and
by the end of the year expects TO in
crease this to 500. 100000. Issu-

LARGE SURVEY IN SUSSEX
Made by Comptroller John C. Lank of
Milton for the Ponder Heirs

Made by Comptroller John C. Lank of
Milton for the Ponder Heirs
One of the largest surveys that has
been conducted in this county for
som etime has just been completed by
Comptroller John c. Lank, of Milton,
for the Ponder heirs. The tract SON
tains about 1400 acres and within a
short time the entire tract will be put
mp at public auction, having been cut
up into farms of fifty acres. 1t has
required about eighteen days to make
the survey alone, much of it having
been made through woodland. The
extensive tract is located in one of
the best farming sections in the county
and thousands of dollars are expected
to be realized when the sale takes
place. The tract has been divided
into thirty farms, with an acreage in
each ranging from forty to sixty
acres. 1t was Mr. Lank's task to cut
up the tract into the several farms.
A few years ago a fire swept
through much of the woodland, sparks
from a passing locomotive of the M.
D. & V. Railway having ignited it.
At the time much valuable timber
was burned almost to the ground and
acres of young timber rendered al
most worthless. A big suit resulted
in the Sussex county courts against
the company for damages, and was
won by the Ponder heirs.
