Because of the possibility of food shortages due to the war many people are planting vegetable 
seeds this year in gardens that were formerly devoted to raising flowers. 
When good seeds are 
used, vegetable gardens require no more care than flower gardens. Be sure to order Landreths’ 
seed for your garden. Packets of seeds are only 10 cents each unless otherwise indicated.
