Food Will Save Our Glorious Nation! 
IF WE GROW ENOUGH OF IT 
Our Country’s Largest Army, Navy, and Air Force in Its History Is Being Established. They 
cannot fight if hungry and weak. They require the largest supply of food ever produced in a single year. 
That is why every farmer, gardener, and home-gardener is most earnestly urged to enlarge his vegetable 
garden and grow many times more vegetable crops than ever. And if taxes take 50 cents or more out of 
every dollar you earn, you can readily see you also need to think of your own needs. 
Plan at once for your Vegetable Garden, and Be Sure of Success.
