Chalmers McDermid. Tomato growing in South Carolina is not in the experimental stage any mere, but a great many of our tomato growers must learn more about grow ing this crop ^efore they can make a succes g the "business. For instance, one cannot expect to put tomato seed into the ground in early May and expect to make as big a crop as one could make if he planted 6 ihch plants at the same time or earlier. tt— **r- THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1933. 1 -V..

For instance again, one cannot ex pect to make a maximum crop by planting tomatoes on land w’hich wilts cotton. One must have a soil which does not contain the cotton wilt or ganism, because it also wilt s toma toes. The third for instance, tell us that .one cannot “bluff” tomatoe s with just a lick of work and a promise of fer tilizer. One must treat a tomato crop at least like one would treat a bean or a potato crop when it comes to work and fertilizer. Neither can one just slam down a little quick nitrogen to a tomato crop as so many of u s did last summer with cotton, and expect to have a crop which is free from rust and which will mean money in the pocket at har vest time. Lots of other little “for instances” crop out during a cropping season, but probably the most im portant of these are the ones mention- ed above. ^ Now, to correct them in the best way possible. First get a hot bed made before February turns into March. For marketing as slicing to matoes, on the very early markets, use Marglobe, Break O’Day, the self toppers, Bonny Best or some other similar tomato. For the cannery or for home can ning, ujie Marglobe, Brimmer, Greater Baltimore or the like. Set your plants to the field as soon as you dare, after the last usual frost date. Put a 9 much m6re than 800 pounds of 8-3-10 fertilizer under your crop as ^ou think your pocket-book will stand. This fertilizer should be thoroughly stirred into the soil. Work your crop fast and regularly, and then get to your other crops. If you find that you haven’t the time nor the inclination to put out a hot bed, write to Prof. W. L. Tuten, Vocational Agriculture Teacher at the McClellanville, S. C'., School and he will be glad to tell you how ycu can get some plants. He has been working on a project with some of his adult class members whereby they can grow tomato plants, for a price, for interior. South Caro lina point s ant l f° r growers in States north of us. I’m sure that Prof. Tuten will be glad to hear from you, and the earlier you write to him, the more time he will have to get plants ready that you may require for your crop this sum mer. Tomato growers in Orangeburg, Calhoun, Hampton. Allendale, Lexing ton, Newberry, Horry and ether coun ties should be especially interested in Prof. Tuten’s project. It would be an easy way for you to get good, healthy, stocky plants at the right time.
