48 HERBS 

Herbs 
The Herbs are a necessary part of every Victory Garden. Their use 
increases the kinds of dishes we can create from the limited varieties of 
foods we can buy. Soups, salads, meats, and vegetables are all made more 
interesting and more tasty by the addition of Herbs. Many home-canned 
foods demand the use of Herbs. A corner of the garden planted to Herbs 
will add interest and enjoyment to the table. 
Prices are: Each 35c, 3 for $1.00. 10 for $3.00, except as otherwise noted.
