Canada is the great source upon which they rely. Everyone with a few square feet of ground can contribute to victory by growing vegetables. Four Patriotic Reasons for Growing Vegetables . r It saves money that you would otherwise spend for vegetables. 12. It helps to lower the "High cost of living." 13. It helps to enlarge the urgently needed surplus of produce for export. 4. Growing your own vegetables saves labor of others 1 whose eliort is needed for other vital war work. 1 IThe Department of Agriculture will help you The Ontario Department of _Agriculture appeals to 'Horticultural Societies to devote at least one evening meeting to the subject of vegetable growing; menu- facttirers, labor unions, lodges, school boards, etc., are invited to actively encourage home gardening. Let the slogan for 1917 be, "A vegetable garden for every home.'' 1. Organizations are requested to arrange for instructive talks by practical gardeners on the subject of vegetable growing. In ewes where it is impossible to secure suitable local speakers, the Department of Agriculture will, on request, send a suitable man. i t The demand for speakers will be great. The number of available experts being limited, the Department urgently requests that arrangements for meetings be made at once; if local speakers cannot be secured, sed applications promptly. 4, The Department suggests the formation of local organizations to stimulate the work by offering prizes for beet vegetable gardens. It is prepared to assistin any possible way any organization that may be conducting a campaign for vegetable production on vacant lots. It will do so by sending speakers, or by supplying expert advice in the field. To any oneinterested, the Department of Agriculture will send literature giving instructions about implements necessary and methods of preparing the ground and cultivating the crop. A plan of a vegetable garden indicating suitable crops to grow, best varieties and their arrangement in the garden, will be sent free of charge to any address. 1Write for Poultry Bulletin - 1 Hens are inexpensive to keep, and you. will be highly repaid in fresh eggs.
