The first fruits are | already seen in the daily isolated an- | nouncements, which, however, give | little idea of the immense scope of British plans.

All the extra food which {is used in their growth is wasted {and the breaking off of large shoots injures the planis. When August 15th comes it is well to nip off all growing ends so that the fruit will finish ripening, also open out plant, if very thick, to allow the sun- light in. | When first fruits begin to ripen, { apply nitrate of soda,--a teaspoonful | {in a watering can, full of water,--to | the plants twice a week 'uo make a { Hquid manure and use it instead. + These are more especially { Keep a dust mulch around | plants, I the.weadhor is ver: dry, i soak the grouad around th»m thor- oughly in the evening, then make a new mulch in the morning, When the tirst fruits tomatoes are beginning to colar, re- | move-one-half of each leaf. This will 'hasten the ripening. Sunlight is ne- cessary for rapid ripening. Leave only growth enough on your plants to carry what fruit will ripen before frost. There is no use in cl- lowing more to set than vill be of use to you and the fruits you leave will be larger. ----- A. H.
