WORLD'S 

 GREATEST 



HEALTH 

 BARGAIN! 



The best health insurance 

 you con 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 vegetobles 

 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 retoin their body- 

 building values so much 

 better than the kinds 

 that sometimes lie in gro- 

 cer's bins for days.
