^ Quotation jrom paper by Lester S. Evans, Regional Director 
of the U. S. School Garden Army , Washington, D. C. 
“The United States school garden army * * * enlisted 
1,680,000 garden soldiers in the United States during the 
year 1918, probably more than 3,000,000 in 1919, and it 
is estimated that more than 4,000,000 school children in 
the United States will be working' gardens under school 
supervision during 1920. Children had greater appreci¬ 
ation of food after having experience in its production 
and preservation, * * * * and were taught valuable les¬ 
sons in thrift, industry, patriotism, and responsibility.”
