FROM the very dawn of intelligence 
that man’s food comes first from the 
seed, the need for that seed has be- 
come literally a matter of life and 
death. 
It is no different today in war-torn 
Europe. 
There are millions of Americans, we 
believe, who will help their friends 
and relatives with seeds, and many 
more who will want to help Europeans 
feed themselves. 
Recently, representatives of the 
American Seed Trade Association, 
cooperating with the United States 
Department of Agriculture, stand- 
ardized an assortment of seeds suit- 
able for family gardens. The assort- 
ments, known as the ASTA seed gift 
packages, are to be purchased by 
individuals or organizations for mail- 
ing to Europe’s needy. 
The carton for Europe contains suffi- 
cient vegetable seed needed to produce 
up to five tons of fresh vegetables and 
those for winter storage. 
Individual buyers will pay $3.95 a 
package postpaid to the receiver in 
Europe, but quantity lots may be de- 
livered prepaid to a European point 
only, for delivery by a recognized 
charitable or relief agency in lots of 
25 to 99 for $3.65, and in lots of 100 
or over for $3.50.
