Grow Tomatoes
More Profitably
Practical tomato farmers are
banding together with the exper-
iment station at Jacksonville to
Four basic points to consider in
putting the needed culture methods
into practice are:
1. Selection of the tomato varie-
ty best fitted to produce East Tex-
as green wraps. Rutgers, Mar-
start an era of specialized to-( globe and Prichard are especially
mato production along the Texas suitable because they are resistant
and Pacific Railway in East Tex- to Fusarium Wilt, a prime tomato
as.
No. 3588
STATE OF TEXAS
In building tomatoes as an im-
portant truck crop, farmers are
keeping in mind particularly the COUNTY OF CASS
bad farming habits which have led IN THE COUNTY COURT
to crop extinction in other states. 10F CASS COUNTY, TEXAS

once -profitable tomato growing
industry has dwindled to almost
nothing. Inferior plant varieties,
susceptible to disease is one cause
of this decline. Another is that
plant growth was forced with
nitrogen fertilizers, resulting in a
low-grade tomato.
Whether tomatoes develop into
the money makers other truck
crops, livestock and dairying have
been in the East Texas sector de-
pends largely upon offsetting high
production costs with better cul-
ture methods.

disease. Marglobe and Prichard
are much more resistant to blos-
som end rot than the Rutgers. How
ever, about 75 per cent of the far-
mers along T&P lines prefer Rut-
gers because the tonnage is still
greater despite the blossom end rot
2. Use of Certified Seed in one
of these preferred tomato varieties
Every year in East Texas, a great
deal of money is lost by planting
inferior tomato seed. Even though
the seed has been dusted, it will
pay to dust again with Ceresan or
Cuprocide. Mix l-8th to l-4th level
teaspoonful of the dusting agent
with each ounce of seed in a fruit
jar and shake until seeds are coat-
ed.
3. Set plants in well drained land
Where land doesn't drain well of
its own accord, the better growers
wrap area ia adequate shipping fa-
cilities to get the crop to market
efficiently and in enough volume
to insure a good profit. In this con
flection, the T&P railway Agricul;
tural Development Dept., is work-
ing with tomato producers to chart
an extensive enlargement of rail
shipping facilities as fast as the
demand warrants.

NOTICE is hereby given that I, j are finding it pays to set out the
plants on high ridges so a dry spell
will not kill them. And good results
have come also from setting plants
closer together on broad rows in
drills. This last mentioned idea not
only gives more room for a horse
and slide to bring out the crop, but
the plants intertwine and tend to
hold one another up in row so that
they can be cultivated longer.
