At Schine's Milford
The sEMERGO" Said To Be More
Startling Than Sd

More startling than S-D. there is
a completely new theatre device,
EMERGE, which will make its
bow here in connection with
House On Haunted Hill'' which
will open soon at the New Milford.
Created by William Castle, pro-
ducer-director of the Vincent
Price-Carol Omhart starrer for
Allied Artists, EMERGE is cleo
trically operated, and has been
hailed by syndicated columnists
and national magazines as epi-
dence of genuinely smart show
manship.
From Castles basic idea, the de-
vice was built at Allied Artists
studio under. the supervision of
Herman Townsley, Hollywood's S
ace special effects man who has
been in the industry for 27 years
The device, a patented product,
is composed of flying objects oper-
ated from the projection booth to
become part of the motion pic
ture. These objects sail over the
theatre auditorium between the
screen and the auditorium's rear
wall

Gardeners Go
For Tomatoes


The tomato is unchallenged as
the number one vegetable in the
home garden according to Mr..
Robert Stevens, Extension Service
Horticulturist at the University Of
Delaware They grow well in
wide variety of soils but respond
best to a good, well drained.
loamy soil.
In order to pick right through
from early July until frost, it's
necessary to plant at least two var
ieties.
The early red varieties which
start producing in early July il you
transplant them now, are: Valiant,
Morton Hybrid, Burpee Early Hy-
brid and other Hybrids. Midseason
varieties include Queens, Pritch-
ard and the old Bonny Best. Rut-
gers has the best quality of the
late varieties but there are several
other good late varieties.
Most home gardeners buy their
tOmatOe plants. Be sure to pur-
chase strong, sturdy plants that
have been hardened off, Stevens
said. Pulled plants are slower to
start. Soft, weak, spindly plants
are set back days or even weeks by
transplanting.
Good soil preparation is import
ant. Spade under or plow under
stable or poultry manure if pos
sible. IL manure is not available
use other forms of organic matter
such as compost, leaf mold, peat
moss, etc. Hoe or rake in about
ten to fifteen lbs. of five ten :
ten fertilizer for each 500 So. feet.
Planting distance will depend
on your method of culture. Staked
tomatoes may be set 18" apart
with rows two to three feet apart.
II the plants are to grow on the
ground allow ten to fifteen So. feet
per plant
Good sound transplanting pract-
ices will help insure an early crop.
Here are some general rules:
l. Soak plants with water sew
eral hours before setting.
2. If the plants are in flat or
box, cut out a block of soil with
each plant.
8. Protect the plant from cut
worms particularly if the garden
was in sod last year) by placing
piece of glazed paper around
the stem or busting DDT or Toxa-
phene on the soil.
4. Set the plant firmly in the
soil at least two inches deeper than
they were growing in the pot or
flat If the plants are tall, set
much of the stem under the ground
leaving five to six inches of the
top above ground.
5. Use a starter solution on
newly-set plants. Soluble fertilizer
may be purchased at most garden
supply stores. Mix according to
directions.
6. Shade and protect the plants
the first few days.
Be prepared for the first insects
which are usually flea beetles.
Dust plants with DDT or Malath-
ion Immediately after setting.
BY following these steps, your
tomatoes will get off to a good
start and less care will be needed
later, the specialist said.
