You will notice this picture shows a roadside market and a customer 
buying strawberries where some of the quarts are sold out of the crates. 
This little boy is looking them over with the expression that he has 
found the Garden of Eden. 

GARDEN OF EDEN 
It does seem to us that a little Garden cf Eden with strawberries, blue- 
berries, grapes, raspberries, gooseberries, and other small fruits serves the 
greatest purpose that any piece of land can serve. It furnishes your table 
with the highest grade of fresh fruits from early spring to late summer. 
The greatest pleasure you ever had is to have all these fruits growing 
so that when your children and grandchildren are around you can take 
them out te your little Garden cf Eden and see them pick the fruit right 
fresh from the vine making their own selection. You have them fulfilled the 
hihgest place in God’s nature. That will be proved to you by the children’s 
rating you above all other human beings because you have fulfilled their 
heart’s desire. Just recall to your childhood days what family wrote 
their name in your heart with a sma!l gift cf some kind of fruit.
