FOOD IS MOST IMPORTANT 
Our government and allies will require 
a large portion of the food our market 
gardeners throughout the country can pro- 
duce this year, to say nothing of supplying 
the markets where civilians unable to 
have a garden of their own must depend 
upon. And with transportation facilities 
limited for civilian needs—labor shortage 
increasing, etc., this all should show clear- 
ly the patriotic responsibility, the home- 
gardener should assume for his own wel- 
fare, as well as an aid to VICTORY for our 
country. Food production is about as im- 
portant as the manufacture of war-cratft 
and munitions in helping to win the war. 
Our men in the armed services and men 
-and.-women engaged in war production 
must have the best and most nutritional 
of foods in order to perform their tasks 
with energy and skill to the greatest de-
