For this reason, the grow ers in the river community normally transplant large plants by shovel as soon as frost danger is past. With a good, early variety, growers feel it may be pos sible to start the plants in “jiffy pots” which will cue down considerab’y on the transplanting time With the - labor prob’em les:ened, perhaps more of the 200 acres of Wheeling soil in the area would be put back into the production of staked tomatoes Henry Heisey, Washington Boro Rl, says the present acreage is far too small to maintain the market He feels there should be at least 80 acres in the specialty to keep buyers interested. A few years ago, Heisey said, nearly 100 per cent of the staked crop was planted to Stokesdale, but Fusarian wilt knocked that variety out and many of the growers turned to other crops. “There is,about 200 acres of class one and two wheel ing soil in the Washington Boro area that could pro duce tomatoes for the early market,” Amos Funk said. “We need to "push for a var iety that wiF fit our needs so that some of this land can be returned to tomato produc tion The group asked Dr. Creech if there might be a possibility of having parent stock of strains 167 and 159 released by -.-the University for commercial seed produc tion within the next year Creech said he needs data proving these* two varieties superior to present commer cial varieties'" before he can go before the New Varieties Re’ease Comm'ttee at the university and recommend release of the- new varieties.

Heisey said. Creech and other plant breeders are continuing re search with these and other var'eties with the hope that the Pa. 103 variety released a few years ago may be im proved still further.
