MAN AND HIS VICTORY GARDEN All the current appeals made to recruit victory gardeners this month, worthy as they may be on a patriotic basis, have been based upon ponderous and cosmic motives which real gardeners will take in their stride.

But confidentially that is not the real reason why men and women don their old hats and fatigue uniforms, grasp an ‘onion or tomato. setting between their thumb and first finger, and sally forth into the sunshine to wage a protracted campaign against slugs, snails and other assorted pests. No, even patriotism could not take these gardeners out of their backyards. In fact, it is one of the blessings of this terrible war that so many of us have tentatively taken up the hoe from patriotic motives only to discover the beauty and satisfaction of gardening. The warmth of the spring sunshine, the earthy odors of newly turned soil, and the abiding satisfaction in transforming an ugly backyard into rows of fresh vegetables are so delightful ehat we would never willingly give them up.
