Tomatoes take the place of many fruits and serve as a vegetable also. Another thing the vitamin content is not injured by cooking. There are only a few places in the state where the to mato is not foolproof which is an item to be considered with inexperienced gardeners looking forward to bushels of lus cious fruit from their dozen vines. In Eastern Oregon the plants may be killed by curly top, which is caused by leaf hoppers. This is especially prevalent in dry sections. Light soil Is best for toma toes, reasonably fertile and with good drainage. If the ground was manured last year probably it will need very lit tle fertilizing this year but if not manure put on now will be pretty well ready by the time the plants can be set out when danger of frost is over. ' ' There U often complaint that tomato blossoms fall off, this is because they do not become pollinized. Bumble bees are the only insects at tracted by tomatoes so some times the pollen can be shak en down by tapping the plant a little. Dry hot weather will cause tomato blossoms to fall, they will not germinate in dry hot weather. Ours is not an ideal cli mate to produce tomatoes but it can be done and there have been some quite good results. It is our short season that is our handicap, so it is not a bad idea to protect the young plants for a while from pos sible frosts. Any way they must be protected from wind. Don't plant them too deep but a little deeper than the flat from which you bought them. , If you skrt your own they should be in now, in some sort of container where they will not be too crowd ed, then when they get a lit tle growth they should be put in flats and as soon as safe they should be put somewhere to harden so the transfer from indoors to the outside will not be too much for them. Never buy tomato plants or any other kind for that matter from a dry flat. If you are growing your own it is a good idea to water them with a booster solution twelve to twenty-four hours ahead of the time you are going to plant them. If you use super phosphate in the hill put it in and disturb it as little as possible and let the rain or irrigation do the rest. Flee beetles may do much harm if the plants are not dusted with calcium arsenate or rotenone dust as soon as they are set put. . Professor Bouquet says it Is a crime to cut the leaves off tomatoes. They manufac ture plant food and shade the fruit. Minerals come to the fruit from the' roots' and carbohydrates from the leaves, ' The laterals of side branches may be removed if you lack space but leave the leaves of the main stem on. If the gard- ner has plenty of room leave ; the laterals on and let them spread,, that is the way the commercial gardeners do. If the plants get too tall i the tops can be pinched out and that will stimulate growth I.jf Revenescence CREAM Givei your face a frett, radiant-looking bloom, radian Hclpi rciiore natural moittneM to Ine akin RUBY WEATHERBY Guest Beauty Consultant HERE ONE WEEK ONLY We are fortunate to have this promi nent artist with us.
