This is a move in, the right direction
and shows what can be done when
people betsir themselves. II the
women in every town in the states
would take. similar action the towns
would be doing their full duty in food
production. The farmer and his FAM
lily are putting all their energies into
food production. In town there are
many boys and girls who do not have
much to do out Of school hours. They
will enjoy gardening and poultry rails
and encouragement. There are many
women in town who are in, a position
to give this very kind of help and en-
couragement. This year ali such eff
forts will mean much. In fact the
outcome Of the war may be settled by
the use of none-uss Of the vacant lot

dertakine as a garden?
The Encyclopedia Britannica covers the
whole range Of agricultural subjects
COMPLETELY from the very founda-
ton Of a thorough knowledge of garden
ing and extending over the widest field.
1t will tell you what kind of ground each crop
needs. 1t will tell you how to prepare the
ground, how far apart to plant the rows of seeds,
when to plant, how to cultivate the ground while
things are growing, and it even gives the names
of reliable varieties of seeds.
The Britannica describes local crops and any
local methods of farming that are of special in
terest. 1t contains some 600 articles on indivi-
dual plants.
The article "soir" (vol. rs, p. 345) tells how
to make the best quality of soil. The article
Manures and Manuring tells about fertilizing,
the supplying of ingredients the soil needs to
make it most fertile. There are articles on Bac-
teriology, the effects of Sunlight, Shade, Heat,
Cold, Water enough, Drainage, Irrigation, Rec
lamation of waste land.
There i an article that tells how to
fight dlhnds ofpests from bug andthe
like to the larger enemies like the rab-
bit. 1t is safe to say that any amateur
gardener with the help and instruction

ONE of the first places where the
- people of the United States arc
going to feel the effect of this nations
entry into the war is in increased
food costs.
This is inevitable. No matter who
you are or where you live, you are
going to feel it-unless you do some
thing about it right away. What can
you do, and how shall you do it?
Every man and woman who has
DON in his yard or who can get the
use of a vacant lot near his home to
start a garden should think and act
right now.
You to whom this idea is new will be sur
prised to know that the yield from even a mail
plot of ground will produce enough vegetables
to feed a family of five all summer. Figure this
out in dollars and cents and you will be surprised
at the amount of money a small garden will save
you in a single season. Invest the cost of neces-
sary seeds and the small amount of labor re-
quired and you will be delighted at the addi-
tional goodness you will enjoy In fresh garden
truck picked right out of your own patch. Try
this plan, beginning kow-this month is plant
ing time, and you will find that you will be dis
tinctly benefited physically-yes, and mentally,
toby the wholesome outdoor work of potter
ing around in the ground among growing things.
And right here is where you will
find the new Encyclopaedia Britain
MICA of immense practical value.

Think of this matter Of food supply Sc
riously. 1t will become very serious if the

Every farmer of a dozen acres or many hum
dreds of acres, growing such staples as wheat,
barley, corn, rye, hay, cotton, ETC., will be called
