High Tomato Yields
Depend on Start

With a stand of about 200
plants to the acre, it takes
yield of only 30 tomatoes per
plant to add up to a total yield
of 10 tons per acre.
1t takes a good stand of
healthy, vigorous plants to yield
10 or more tons and Andrew A.
Duncan, University of Maryland
Extension vegetable specialist,
says a good stand is not likely
unless every precaution is taken
to reduce transplanting setback.
Loss of plants from trans
planting setback often rules out
any chance of high yield" &C.
cording to Duncan. ITO hold this
setback to a minimum, plant on
ly the healthy plants as soon as
they are received. Grade the
plants and throw away any that
are weak, diseased or poorly col
ored. Strong, healthy plants win
bear two weeks earlier than
weak ones"
Plants can be freshened and
given a better chance of living
after transplanting by wetting
the roots as soon as they are re-
ceived. The method suggested by
Duncan is to remove the center
bundle and stand the basket con-
tanning the other bundles in 2
inches of water in a tub. Care
must be taken not to wet the
stems while roots are in the tub
for about 5 minutes. Then, place
the plants in shade and store at
temperatures between So and
TO- F.
Spraying or dipping the young
plants for insect control also
helps get them off to a good
start. Either dip the tops in a
mixture of 3 ounces of lead ar
senate, 2 fluid ounces of summer
oil emulsion and 5 gallons of
water; or spray after transplant
with DOT or TIDE. This protects
plants from flea beetles and po-
tato beetles.
Suggestions for operating the
tranSplanter are to adjust it so

mention because of their high
nutritional value.
Try a short row of sweet po-
tatoes. If you are not able to
buy sprouts (small plants) grow
your own from sweet potatoes
you buy at the store. Cover a
few sweet potatoes with 2 inches
of sand, keep them warm and
moist and in a few weeks you'll
have plenty of sprouts for setting
in your garden.
Often gardeners complain that
they are unable to grow long
straight carrots. The nutritive
value of carrots is not associated
with straightness so I can't see
that it makes any difference.
However to straighten out your
carrots you might try an old
gardeners trick for growing
"show carrots" Make a hole sew
eral inches deep using a round
stick or steel bar. Fill the hole
with sandy soil fortified with
compost and then plant 3 car
rot seeds on top. Thin the car
rot Seeding until only 1 is left
on top of each spot. 1t is quite
a bit of work but for the per-
fectionist it is rewarding.

Don't Find Yourself
In Garden Stew

What to grow in the garden
is a problem that keeps some
lobbyists in a stew all season.
The solution is simple when we
consider what the garden should
provide for us.
A good garden should produce
root, fruit and leaf crops. Some
root crops are white potatoes,
sweet potatoes, carrots, beets and
radishes. Some fruiting crops are
tomatoes, beans, okra and corn;
leaf crops are lettuce, collardS
and Swiss chard.
Plan the garden so that some
of each of these groups of vege-
tables are ready to eat all
through the summer.
Keep leaf crops together in one
part of the garden because they
are usually planted early, they
grow quickly and are harvested
first. AS soon as they are har-
vested plant different vegetables
in their place. To save space in
small gardens, two different
vegetables may be grown in the
same row at the same time. For
examples, radishes with cabbage,
spring onions with cabbage, let
tuce with cabbage or any other
combination that you like.
Root crops deserve special

Unshaded Gas Tanks
EvapOrate Fuel

The gasoline burnt up by trac-
tors and other farm machines
during the busy growing season
is big enough item of expense,
without the farmer paying for
fuel that evaporateS into thin air.
Evaporation loss from unshad-
ed gasoline tanks may run as
high as 10 percent during a hot
summer month, says Guy w.
Gienger, University of Maryland
agricultural engineer.
Provide shade for the tank
and cut down On this loss" he
advises. mot only will your fuel
bill be less, but your engines will
run smoother too. When part of
the gasoline evaporates, what's
left has high gum content that
can cause sticky valves"
Gasoline storage tanks should
be at least so feet away from the
nearest building, which means
that tanks should be placed in
the shade of trees or under a
roof specially built for the pur.
pose. A tank in a building voids
the fire insurance policy and in
creases fire hazards.
Pressure valves are available
for tank vents, Gienger says, and
adds that a good value will pay
for itself in a short time. Such
valves allow the pressure to build
up to 2 or 3 pounds per square
inch before they release the pres.
sure.
Underground storage tanks
keep gasoline in the best condi.
ton, but they must be located
away from wells and sewer lines.
A good quality tank coated with
waterproofing material helps pre-.
vent leaks that can get into wells
and sewers.
Another suggestion for gaso,
line storage tanks is to tilt the
tank slightly so water and sedi.
ment can collect in the end op-
poSite the outlet. Drain out the
accumulation at least once a year

Good Market for Maryland
Fruit Forecast if Quality
Standards Are Maintained

Maryland peach growers got a
good break from the weatherman
this spring when low tempera-
lures wiped out much of the
crop in Southern States. Pros
poets are for a crop shortage,
which means Maryland growers
are in a position to hit a good
market.
In view of this prospect, Uni
versity of Maryland Extension
fruit specialist Albert F. Vier-
heller has some suggestions for
growers in the State.
Lets not lower our standards
this year, just because competi-
ton won't be quite so keen from
other areas" he says. There is
still need to offer the consumer
a good product. Growers who
market the highest quality fruit
will still make the most profits.
Furthermore, we should keep in
mind that the quality of fruit we
market this year will have an
effect on the demand for our
product in future years"
Vierheller suggests a good job
of thinning the fruit, so the mar
keted product will have good size.
The hose and clubbing method of
thinning is still recommended for
peaches. There have been some
experimental trials with various
chemicals for thinning and there
were some rather favorable re-
suits, but chemicals still need
more testing before they are re-
commended for commercial use.
my advice to any peach grow
er who was going to take a
chance with chemical thinning of
peaches this season is to forget
it, and resort to hand thinning

it will set the plants at least 3
inches deep and to replace worn
transplanter shoes. Also, use a
starter solution.
do not allow workers to
smoke or chew tobacco while
handling young plants" Duncan
warns. Psychologists tell us that
tobacco mosaic virus may be
transmitted to tomatoes from
cigarettes containing mosaic in
fected tobacco. Allow regular
break periods when help may
smoke, and provide a bucket of
water with yellow soap and pap
er towels. Require people han
ding plants to wash hands thor
oughly after smoking or handling
tobacco"
Another worthwhile precaution
is to have persons riding the
transplanter hold tomatoes on
their laps on a clean piece of
newspaper. AS the newspaper be-
comes soiled, clean piece should
be substituted.
Along with his recommends
for transplanting, Duncan passes
the word along that the Georgia
tomato transplant crop will be
about 10 days later than usual
due to drought and frost, but re-
cent heavy rains have improved
the crop. He has received a tele-
gram from a field man for a can
manufacturing company. The
field man reports the bulk of the
Georgia crop will be shipped in
