To TIE Solonaceae family belong some

plant, The tomato a native of tropical
America. was called love apple and was
grown as an ornamental plant rather than
an edible fruit Il was also called the gold
spple indicating there were yellow types
then, as now.
The earliest mention was made in
1854. showing II 10 he of recent Importance
compared 10 many other vegetables. II was
introduced in England in 1896. At that
time, writer commented:
Love apples are eaten abroad pre-
pared and boiled with pepper, salt and
oil but they yield very little nourshment

II was almost wholly unknown in this
country AS late as 1884 but they were
found in Europe IN 1870 then as nov in
red, gold, yellow and white varieties.
The pepper is also native Of tropical
America and was brought to Spain by
Columbus There are many types.
The eggplant is a native Of the Old
World tropics, was known in the year 500
and was brought to this country from
Spain. The purple eggplant is almost the
only color grown in our gardens but many
sorts are found in other countries.
The potato is our most important
vegetable and is a native of Southern
Chile becoming an object of cultivation
in Northern Chile and Peru in the time of

use in England until after 1928.
THE tenor of the whole history
seems such as TO imply that at first its
tuber was of such poor quality as not to
obtain general liking, that it was only
as the quality was improved that its
acceptance became assured and that il
is to the effort of growers that il has
secured at the present time quality that
forces universal approval"
The original kinds were very small,
mostly dark red with very deep eyes
Tubers often were several inches long but
only an inch in diameter.
Although the varieties of today are of

improvements are being made by plant
