Tomato cultivation tips for early planting and bed preparation
The author explains a method to start tomatoes early using hot beds. Prepare a bed by early April with two feet of horse manure beneath six inches of soil, wait for heat, then sow seeds four inches apart. After four to five days sprouts appear, loosen between plants, sow celery seeds between rows, and transplant tomatoes as they reach three inches high.
Management of Cream in Cold Weather
In cold weather skimmed cream fails to churn into butter as quickly as in warm weather due to thicker butter sacs. Two fixes are advised: warm the strained milk until cream begins to form, or add a tablespoon of salt per quart of cream to tenderize butter globules. Salt aids the coating, allowing quicker butter formation.
