BENG OS MCS 
DEFENSE GARDENS for *42 
Americans on the home front are united in their efforts to 
bring this war to a victorious conclusion. Everywhere, 
every effort is being exerted toward that end. Particular 
emphasis is placed now, as it was in 1917 and 1918, on the 
cultivation of garden products. Food production on an 
increased basis will play a vital part in winning victory, 
because it is as essential as ammunition for the troops and 
the tars on land and sea and in the air. It is likewise the 
mainstay of the millions who, in civilian and domestic pursuits, keep the 
fighters for democracy supplied with the weapons of war. 
‘Unused plots of ground in rural, suburban and urban districts are being _ 
changed into vegetable patches. Farmers and amateur gardeners alike are 
devoting their chief efforts to the cultivation of food. America is “all out” 
for defense and decisive victory, and the soil of freedom will yield a bountiful 
harvest of foods in 1942. 
Vegetable seeds, therefore, occupy a position of prominence and take up 
the major portion of this catalogue. Hundreds of varieties suitable for 
farmers and canners, as well as the small gardner, are listed in alphabetical 
order for convenient selection. Flower seeds are listed in the back of the 
book. Grass seeds, also, are located at the back. The mixtures presented 
are the best for general use as well as for the several specific purposes noted. 
The United States at war and the United States at peace, since its establish- 
ment as an independent nation, has been sustained by food produced from 
Landreth seeds. In 742, as in 17, ’98, 61 and on back through American 
history, the professional gardener and the “war” gardener can continue to 
rely on seeds that are backed by an American firm in business since 1784.
