THE PHOTO CONTEST 
Regarding our 1946 Photo Contest. We did not re- 
ceive near as many snapshots as in former years, prob- 
ably on account of the very dry season all over the U.S. 
and the best we received were color photos from which 
we could not make good clear cuts so we are merely 
listing the names of the winners and awarding them 
each a credit for $5.00 in Roots from our 1947 Catalog.
