Four years ago Miss Marie

ever organized in the United States. t.(j ^
Each girl that became a member of
this club was to plant one-tenth of " s-'
an acre of tomatoes, which were to '
be canned. The one that made the '

largest yield was to get a one-vonr
scholarship at Winthrop College. p(lucation
There were prizes also for the sec'
ond and third largest yields; and 1 am '

would bo a profit. When danger of X()"rs''ffrost
was over, I transplanted the 1 1,1
