A world without tomatoes is like a string
quartet without violins.

Phyllis Kerby of Hur had raised only two tomato plants this season, but two may be enough. The yellow variety plants are each over 5 feet tall and bare more than twenty tomatoes each.

"The starter plants were tall and spindly and I didn't give them much hope for survival, I'm glad I was wrong," Phyllis said.

The federal government has sponsored research that has produced
a tomato that is perfect in every respect, except that you can't
eat it. We should make every effort to make sure this disease,
often referred to as 'progress', doesn't spread.

It's difficult to think anything but pleasant thoughts
while eating a homegrown tomato.
