WORLD'S 
GREATEST 
HEALTH 
BARGAIN! 
The best health insurance 
you can buy for your 
family costs only the few 
cents you spend for veg- 
etable seeds .. . plus a 
little time spent in the 
enjoyable hobby of gar- 
dening. 
Home grown vegetables 
are not only fresher and 
more choice than store- 
bought ones — they are 
more nutritious. Many 
are rich in vitamins — 
and when they are picked 
fresh _ from your own 
vines, and quickly boiled, 
they retain their body- 
building values so much 
better than the kinds 
that sometimes lie in gro- 
cer's bins for days.
