Your Two-Fold Duty 
Produce Vegetables and Grow Flowers 
If you own a garden, you have the opportunity and it is your 
privilege, in this period of growing scarcity, to add to the world’s 
supply of food by growing vegetables and fruit. You will find it 
healthful, pleasant and profitable. 
Hitherto we may have believed vegetables to be so low in 
cost that they do not pay the amateur to grow them, but this is 
no Jonger valid, for vegetables will be scarce in 1942 and they 
will cost more. Already there is talk of rationing food in America. 
The world needs the beauty of flowers also: their perfume and 
their quiet calm. So grow your beans and cabbages, potatoes 
and fruit, but sow your asters, marigolds and zinnias, as in past 
years. Set out your roses and shrubs and, especially, your peren- 
nials and bulbs, to beautify the future years and to carry us 
through to the time when the world is at peace again.

At the time of going to press, many of our seeds are still to be 
harvested, and it is possible that some shortages may develop. 
Expected shipments from abroad may fail to arrive, and the na- 
tion’s defense program may limit the renewal of our stocks of certain 
implements. For these reasons we must emphasize that PRICES 
IN THIS CATALOGUE ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
