The majority of howe gardeners
have a hobby on Nome ort of vege

While there nre many who grow
any kind of tomatoes, not caring us to
tbe variety, there are others who seek

! The Ideal

Pot-Grown Plant.
There are aome families that prefer
.be medium-sized, tmiooth tomato,
while others desire the largest that
can be grown. The larger tomato is
suitable for slicing, but tbe house
wife complains that it is usually tun
large for cunning, so tbe medium
sized tomato seems to be more In tbe
limelight.
In either instance, a strong, healthy
plant Is necessary If the best results
and early fruit are desirvd.
The very best plant, obtainable tu be
set outdoors us sftpn.-ojj th.j weather

first raised In tbe flat, thru trans

the nobility Is dividing and selling bis j
holdings, many of which have been In '
the hands of single families for ceu- j

The latest Indication that peers are
! finding It necessary to seek smaller i
homes comes In the announcement of
the duke of I'ortland that he may have i
to abandon his palatial mansion,
Welbeek Abbey, In Nottinghamshire.
This is only one of the residences of j
the duke, who owns souae "xW.000 j
acres in England. 1
Duke Expresses Fears. j
"For centuries past lauded estates j
have been bunded down from genera
tion to generation," said the duke, ;
addressing his tenants on the occasion
of the coming of age of bis son Lord
Francis Cavendish. "Landlords and
tenuuts have lived on terms of mutual
trust and affection. I fear, however,
that the state of things Is passing
away, for with the present weight of
taxation and the extremely onerous
denth duties, the future may become
very uncertain for all landed pro
prietors. If this Is gootl for the
country, I certainly do not complain.
"With regard to my own case. It may
not be possible for me and my family
to continue to reside at Welbeek, but
I fear that there can be little doubt
that those who come after me will not
be able to do so."

Below is a list of some very special prices on DOSS
age Master-piece Tires.
Mile-
Perhaps you dont care how much you pay for your tires.
But if you do these prices have a wonderful meaning for you.
The one and only one reason for our being able to quote 1 such
astonishingly low prices on a high grade tire is because we buy
through a national chain dealer's association which takes the
entire output of the factory and therefore the prices have
been mercilessly hammered to the ground and tire users be
hold with amazed delight prices which they never hoped to
see.
ARE THE DOSS Extra Ply Mileage Masterpiece Tires
Guaranteed?
e
O, Yes, Here is the Official Factory Guarantee:
The official guarantee on Doss, Extra-ply cords is 10,000
miles and on Doss, Extra-ply fabrics, 8,000 miles, but the real
travelability of Doss, Mileage Masterpiece Tires is some fig
ure close to double the mileage guarantee.
