LET'S GROW TWICE AS MUCH IN 1943 
OUR 26TH ANNUAL CATALOG—1943—During these critical times 
changes have been made in practically every home in America. As 
soon as the tiny green blades of grass shoot up from good old Mother 
Earth this Spring, we will have to plant Mightily to harvest a Victory. 
As food is so essential, 1943 will be a Banner year for Agriculture. The 
growing of fruits, vegetables and flowers is your patriotic duty. Use 
every idle inch of ground. Cut down your food cost and have a sur- 
plus by growing your own Victory Garden. Those of you who work in-

for another day. Don’t let your ground go to weeds this summer. WEEDS
