The scenes pictured here were duplicated hundreds of 
times this past summer as gardeners once more returned 
to the soil. The experience gained during the previous 
year resulted in better use of the land. Canning centers 
were set up in many communities and housewives ex- 
changed recipes and methods of utilizing every surplus 
tomato and pepper. This winter, once again, cellars and 
cupboards are bulging with the products of the soil, the 
makings of many a satisfying winter meal produced from 
seeds.
