TOMATOES ARE BEST

 A thrifty tomato plant left to itself will spread over a space from to feet in diameter and will produce and pruned 1t will yield about the same quantity of fruit the tomatoes will be larger, cleaner. better favored and superior in every respect. and enough space can be conserved to ac commodate five other plants cared for cialiStS of the United States Depart ment of AgriCultures The Staked and pruned plants are easily sprayed. and will continue to produce fruit later in the fall than plants which are allowed to spread naturally. As a rule, also the pruned tomatoes will mature ear Her. On the scale on which tomatoes are grown in the home garden, stalk ing and pruning require little trouble and will fully repay the effort.
 When the plants begin making vigorous growth, shoots will appear In the little pockets where each leaf joins the stem. Later the blossoms appear on the opposite side of the stem. In pruning the plant. remove all these side shoots and those around the base of the plant, being careful not to dis turb the blossom clusters. The shoots sometimes called suckers. should be pinched off shortly after they appear The main stem can be carried to the full height of the stake. then allowed to hang over. By this time six or sev- en blossom clusters, on which the fruit is developing, should be set on the stem.

 The Rotary organization has in- dorsed the LegiOn's consolidation pro- gram for the relief to the disabled and will support the Legion's efforts to obtain Its enactment into law, ac. cording to Chesley H. Perry of Chi Cago, secretary general of the Rotary clubs organizations.

Every club will then report to the headquarters office of Rotary in Chicago.
