178 THE WAR GARDEN VICTORIOUS 



Lumberman, the Christian Endeavor World, the Forecast, 

 and the People's Home Journal, and many others were 

 among the publications that carried war-garden stories. 



The Literary Digest printed 

 a summary of the work ac- 

 complished and showed 

 what Daylight Saving had 

 done to further the efforts 

 of the war gardener. 



The manufacturer of 

 plows or soda fountains, as 

 wellasthe editorof a general- 

 interest magazine, realized the value of home food pro- 

 duction to his employes; and through their house- 

 organs the heads of many industrial and business con- 

 cerns spread the gospel 

 of "Food F. O. B. the 

 Kitchen Door." Trade 

 publications of all kinds 

 throughout the country 

 carried garden lessons 

 and inspirational articles 

 urging their workers to 

 produce food and thus 

 help themselves and their 

 country at the same time. 

 Some of them reproduced the Commission's posters in 

 their magazines and used other material furnished them. 

 The work of cooperation with newspapers and peri- 

 odicals was conducted by Russell T. Edwards, under 

 the direction of Secretary Ridsdale.
