Send in Your PLAN NOW TO PRUNE 11 AND STAKE TOMATOES C'lemson College, May 10.?Many of (ho best home gardeners follow the practice of pruning and Making to- ! inatoca. Does it pay to prune the vine* to a single stem and tie theui to stuke* or tvellises? This ia the question which many home gardeners usk every year. It does pay, according to George I*. Hoffman, extension service horticulturist. especially if the garden apace is limited. Tomato planta left to themselves have a habit of apfeading all over the garden and producing their fruit right on the ground where it becomes covered with dirt every time it rains, and is much more subject to decay. The chief advantages of pruning and staking tomatoes are: I. A larger number of planta can he set on the given area. '2. The tomatoes will ripen a little earlier when plants are pruned and staked. .'1. The fruit la kept off the ground, is clean, easy to gather and leas likelv to decay. *" 1. The quality of the fruit is u<unllv better on plants that are pruned ,nnd staked. It is true that individual plants pruned and staked do not produce large a quantity of tomatoes as when allowed to run on the ground, hut two or three times as many planta can he set on the given aren. thereby actually increasing the quantity of tomatoes produced from that area.
