Tomatoes For Seed.

Many persons save the first tomato that ripens for seed, and they think tbev are doing the right thing. The very earliest tomatoes 10 ripen are not AS sweet and solid as those ripening from a week Co two weeks later. The hest plan in saving the tomato for seed is to select the more uniform, medium size. which ripcn evenly and quickly little while after the plant has been producing ripe fruit Seeds saved from tomatoes grown on moderately thin soil will retain the good qualities better than those saved from plants which were forced by very rich soil.-Phila- delphia North American.

from high Vatican authorities

OFFICIAL expression was unob-

that the holy father "omphst.

This expression was given sig
nitioanco aa applying TO Ireland by
tho selection OF Manager Cerretti

how to do your dental work just
the way it OUGHT to be done TO
give you permanent satisfaction.
Second-We have the best equip
ment that money can buy. When
we fitted up this office we spared
neither time nor expense TO give the
people OF Seattle the VERY BEST
in dental service. We occupy the
entire floor on which we are located.
We believe we can safely say that
there are very few, if indeed any,
finer dental offices in the whole
United States than ours.
Third-Our prices are the lowest.
This is made possible, of course, only
on account of the very large amount
Of business that we do. Not only
are we able TO take a small profit
on the Individual patient, but we also
buy all supplies in large quantities,
which gives us the lowest prices on
them.
