Garden Fence Best Place For Tomato and Cukes Weekly Pranlnc of Side Skeeta Keepe Teeoeteee to Tomatoes and cucumbers may be frown in the small borne garden each in no more apace than it takes tor a row of beans, if they are allowed to climb. The heaviest tomato yield, and earliest fruit, for apace occupied, will be given by a row of plants set 12 inches apart and pruned to a single stem. Plants set 21 inches apart, pruned to two stems, gives almost as many fruits. Pruning is easy to do but requires daily attention. The plant starts with a central stem or leader. When the first blossoms appear, at each Joint made by a leaf with the atem. a branch begina to grow. To prune the plant these side shoots are removed before they are four inches long. If two stems are to be allowed, one side shoot is left to fV)w, starting not more than ten inches from thetjferound. Pruning must be done weekly. Single stem plants may be twisted around a cord stretched from a five or six foot support of any kind to an anchor on the ground near the plant. Two-stem plants should be tied to their support by loops of soft cord or cloth which will not cut the stems. No other leaves should be pruned from tomato plants; and so-called determinate varieties should not be staked and primed. Fruits need the shade furnished by leaves to avoid sunburn. To make the first blossoms set fruit, spray them with a hormone sold for that purpose. Tomato roots spread widely Just below the soil surface so cultivation should never be deep enough to dis turb them. An abundant supply of water is required, and lack of it causes decayed spots on the fruit opposite the stem, called blossom end rot. Moisture is conserved by applying a mulch of lawn clippings, six inches thick, all along the to mato row. All cucumbers will climb, so don't be induced to choose an in ferior variety on the plea that it is a climber. Plant your usual sorts in a row. six to 10 inches apart, and provide a support which they can ascend as soon as the vines develop. Seed should not be sown until warm weather ia established, usually May V. Apply plant food, a pound to 28 feet of row, spread in a trench two inches away from the seed. Do not use D D T on cucumbers, melons or squash. All are attacked^ by the cucumber beetle, and should be dusted with calcium arsenate, mixed with It times its weight of gypsum. Begin dusting as soon as the leaves develop, and keep them dusted until vines are two feci. long. The insects concentrate on the growing end of the vine. Melons will climb too, but thrts weight is often too great unless thjg arc suported by mesh bags tied to the fence or trellis. The support^ for all these plants should not bdf a solid wall, or tight fence; rather' single stakes, or a picket fence, which will allow air to circulate freely through the growth.
