“FOOD is a whole arsenal of weapons in this 
struggle for human freedom. It is the driving 
force behind high production of munition work- 
ers and top-notch performance and strong morale 
among soldiers and sailors.” These words of the 
Honorable Claude R. Wickard, Secretary of Agri- 
culture, present the true importance of health sus- 
taining and energy building foods, in today’s su- 
preme efforts on the home front, as well as the 
fighting front. 

Now that our own nation has been enveloped 
in the world-wide conflagration of war, FOOD 
AY has again become an item of great national im- 
K8eRBF portance. The American seed industry is the 
foundation for the production of foods, vital not 
only to ourselves but to all countries of the United 
Nations. One of our greatest National assets is 

rw 
HEALTH—which is best preserved by the consumption of vitamin-filled fresh 
vegetables. : 
Our Army and Navy personnel, our industrial workers and our allies will require 
huge requisitions of canned foods and végetables. These inroads on our food reserves 
can be met by a largely increased production of home vegetables through greatly 
increased home gardening activities. Your own home garden is an important link 
in preventing any serious shortage of fresh vegetables, for there can be no reserve 
stocks of FRESH VEGETABLES excepting those growing in the GARDEN. Every home which can, must grow a part of its 
own food. Gardens must be planned and every row in the garden must produce all season long. 
_ THRIFT—and many sacrifices—will be necessary to bring victory. In your own back yard, the production of fresh vegetables 
is the answer to the problem of malnutrition. Your VICTORY GARDEN is a cornerstone in the foundation of vigorous health 
for our people—one of the first steps towards victory.
