Tomato as Food Until the early part of the Nineteenth century, the tomato was little cultivated in America and then only aa a decorative plant or as food for pigs. It made its first appearance in the southern states probably a little before it was introduced into the North. In March, 1828, a number of the Southern Agriculturist, published in Charleston, mentioned it. It was brought to New Jersey by Peter Bogart of Princeton about 1830. A monument to the man to eat the first tomato marks the grave of Michele Felice Corne, in a small cemetery near Farewell street, Newport, R. I. First Sea Battle The first sea battle on record was between the Corinthians and Corcyreans about 665 B. C.

Equal Suffrage The first guaranty of equal suffrage to women in the United States was contained in the “Act of 1869” of the Territorial legislature of Wyoming. Books for Blind Work with the blind remains one of the most fertile fields for volunteers, involving as it does a steady demand for persons to teach the blind to reed and to transcribe books into Braille. Hand-copied Braille books are now supplemented by books embossed by machine, but will probably never become obsolete, according to the opinion of workers with the blind, who point to a steady demand for books not adapted to mass production, but needed for use by individuals in special lines of study or business.
