Mr. Barlow has ro waiter witv of the. ' tomato, one hoiw "having theiti grown from the floor, I the others from the henches. The cucumbers occupy a much small" r apace. With a very sman excep tion, Mr., Hnrlow grows for hit 'trad' the early Annus. The plains Mr. liurlow grew from his own carefully selected seed, which h plantid January 1st. The littl" plants Were, transplanted around Mother's day and leeoratlon day nod now they hsve grown and are htMirlnf heavily. These plants which are growing from the ground are cut off at about S ft. and Mr. Hnrlow says that the plants push up about two Inches per day. The plants in the benehe cannot grow so high, hut Mr. Mailow al lows them to branch out more. The iariy Ah mi is not the tomato which M unilfllly raised Tor the early ui'ir liet. in fact for commercial pur pose ftt all. Mr. Hnrlow mivs. Il ha to he culled too clos ly hence thert Is not such u"-;1"11"' 3 of fruit to be marketed.

Mr. Harlow has hold as many as liuil to I L'uo boxes during a season. Thai trade is almost a thing of the past now as there in no demand, scarcely, for this article, lire pub lic quite generally calling for head ietlllee. Mr. Harlow says (he potato, the tomato ami the night shade are alt ol the Kiint family, and he is of the opinion that Hurhank's new Won der berry is merely the night shade made over. Me calls attention to the fact that tomatoes; were once, poisonous, when they were known as hive apples and that now the deadly night shaden have been I ransformed into Hornet hlng not i only edible hut delicious.
