For Health — Profit — Security 
In a nation-wide radio broadcast on Sept. 22nd, The Happy 
Farmer, sponsored by Firestone Tire & Rubber Sales Company, 
urged every farmer to plant a Home Orchard to insure plenty 
of fresh fruit for his family. In this broadcast it was pointed 
out that the Home Orchard not only supplies fresh fruit which 
furnishes the vitamins so necessary to perfect health, but that 
it is a sound investment from a money-making standpoint — it 
saves on doctor’s bills, loss of time from school or work, in lower¬ 
ing the cost of living — and it adds to the enjoyment, beauty 
and profit of the home, thus adding to the value of your pro¬ 
perty. Furthermore, the Home Orchard actually requires very 
little time and very little care — so simple that any boy of girl 
can easily do it. The sale of the surplus fruit in only one year 
often pays for the orchard and its care. Stark Trees Bear Young. 
“The farm, of all places, is where we expect to find an a- 
bundant and constant supply of fruit — fruit to insure health, 
to add variety to the diet over the whole year, to increase^the 
cash income and to make life on the farm more enjoyable.” 
— says J. R. Cooper, Nationally Known Writer and State Horti¬ 
culturist, Arkansas University.

ket in the world 
for the products 
of our Home 
Orchard is our
