FALL PLANTING 
Fellow Citizens: 
"He also Fights who 
The food supply of this country must be kept at the 
highest level. There is nothing- else more important, and 
those who can help directly in no other way can "do their 
bit" by planting gardens and raising vegetables. Presi- 
dent Wilson is ordering that millions more of acres be 
planted to wheat and other cereals. Food is the impor- 
tant question for every nation. No one knows what the 
prices of food products will be next year, or if, indeed, 
they can be had at any price. 
In California, for the most part, we have a mild win- 
ter climate — vegetables thrive here at all seasons, and 
"seed time and harvest" follow each other without inter- 
mission. Many vegetables thrive best in the cool, wet 
months; and others get a deep root system established 
Since the world's supply of seed of practically every known vegetable is 
short on account of poor crops, we earnestly urge all of our readers to order 
their seed early and liberally. There cannot possibly be enough this eomin" 
season for everybody who wants to plant a garden.
