GARDEN FOR HEALTH 
S INCE Pearl Harbor, thousands who 
did not garden before, have discovered 
what a sense of pleasure and pride it 
has been the past few years to work in 
their Victory Gardens. The relaxing 
health-building exercise, the produc- 
tion of much vitamin, health-giving 
food, has done wonders to so many in 
finding out the joy and fascination of 
the back yard garden... . This year 
the food elément is not quite as serious 
a problem, yet there is still nothing 
like getting fresh vegetables from your 
own garden. The money saved is no 
small item. But best of all, you eat 
more of these health-building vege- 
tables when you have them growing at 
home. They put pep into you in a 
miraculous way. Plant a garden again 
this year. It will pay you big dividends.
