No single jarden crop is so easly grown and >f same trrrift nlavs so laree a jart in the winter supply of can- j led goods as the tomato. In the face' >f the high prices of canned and mcanned food stuff, the agricul tural department is therefore urg ng that more attention be'given the rultivation of this valuable crop, to ( irovide a larger supply for the ! lame and local market. I Successful tomato " growing is i aigely dependent upon judicious I X>H SUeCUUIl, iCXIriiuci ayytivawvii , ind cultural methods. Ton^atoes require a relatively | ow percentage of nitrogen as corn ered with phosphoric acid and pot ish, both of' which, however, are issential in fruit development. Com-1, nercial fertilizer should be applied j ( nthe dril, 00 to 1,000 pounds per icre, ^nd thoroughly mixed with the toil before thei plants are set. Ni rate of soda is recommended as a! ide dressing and should be applied it the. rate of 75 to 100 pounds per icre. Very hfeavy applications of italhle manure are not advised, as )he manure may prove harmful to Tuit formation and development ind often encourages rot. Under home garden conditions raining (the single stem, stalking rad pruning are advisee, but this s impracticable on an extensive tcale and is recommended only to ;be intensive gardener. The single item method allows more plants per icre, but give? a smaller percentage >f fruit per plant, but this is of a ligher quality than that allowed to ipen on the ground. In this method he plants are set 17 inches apart in <owb three feet apart pruned to a tingle stem. The suckers which are iroduced in the axis of the leaf ihould be removed \?ien small. The Eruit branches are produced be rween the leaves and may be easily listsxjguished from the suckers. Tomato wilt is carried in the >!ants and the disease is often red by this means.

APPLE RUST. Clemson College.?Apple rust in -habits apple leaves and fruits during part of its history and cedar trees during the other part. It is the fun gus which; causes the "cedar apples" which are so conspicuous during wet weather in'the spring. The infesta tion on the apple is often severe enough to produce serious damage, and farmers who wish to protect this year's crop of apples should waste no time in destroying the cedars, as infection will occur during any. wet spells for the next five or six weeks. No profitable method of control has been devised except to destroy the cedars. It is possible to control by spraying but the cost is too great for it to pay. On the contrary cut ting the cedars for a mile ?r two on all sides of the orchard will accom plish control without further efforts. The profit from this operation de pends on the size of the orchard, the number of trees to be cut, and the number of neighbors willing to co operate. Apple growers in some parts of Virginia 'have found it pro fitable. There are other similar rusts of pears, quince, and haw which have one stflce of the life Tnstnrv on re dars; but they are not so important economically as the apple rust.
