lea as the land from which shipments
can be made with the least tax on
the ships left available by submarine
warfare. The time requirements for
shipments from Australia and other
remote countries are such as to be
prohibitive. America is the one place
upon which the allies may depend
for the feeding of their armies and
populations. To enable America to
do its share our home gardeners must
recognize that they are war garden
ers, and therefore vital to the success
of the armies. They must produce
foodstuffs on tremendous scale, with
the central thought that unending in
dustry on the part of their gardens
is the price Of worldwide freedom.
As in 1917, the need is for food
production f. o. b. the kitchen door.
This means that II will be none too
much if two or more war gardens
are made to grow where one grew
before, creating a vast aggregate yield
at the points of consumption BY the
same logic, there must be universal
application of the simple principles
of home canning and drying of vege-
tables and fruits. Last year the
households of America created win
ter supply of canned goods amounting
to more than half billion jars. This
year they should make it more than
billion. To food production f. o. b.
the kitchen door they will thus add
food supply +. o. b. the pantry shelf
BY making themselves both soldiers
of the soil and cohorts of conserva-
tion they will form a vast army of
ggression-fearless, defiant and in
vincible. With forces thus organized
to support the military establishment
America can conquer the alien foe and
do her part to rescue and redeem civil
lization. Without these forces she is
helpless. Neutrality on the food ques-
ton is as impossible as neutrality in
the war itself. In the great conflict
we shall win or lose according to our
solution of the food problem.
Let us plant gardens as never be-
fore, and grow munitions at home to
help win the war.
Denver labor bulletin., 1918-02-02
MUNITION PLANT IN YOUR BACK YARD
BY Charles Lathrop Pack.
of the National Emergency Food Garden Commission

den commission reported the exist
ence of nearly three million gardens
| in yards and vacant lots. This year
there should be five million. This
added increase will be none too great
to meet the increased needs of sit
uation immeasurably more serious
than was that of 1917.
One of the means which will prove
most helpful to the home gardener
. in adding to the food supply is the
national daylight-saving scheme. which
Germany adopted early in the war, and
which a number of other nations have
since put into operation with great
profit as a war measure. This simple
plan of turning the clock forward and
starting the days work an hour ear
lier during the summer months will
give an extra hour of daylight in the
afternoon, which will furnish the op-
portunity of devoting that much more
time TO the cultivation of the soil.
/ The results which can be accomplished
| by the addition of an hour every day
for garden work will largely increase
the product raised. We are urging
the prompt passage at this session of
Congress of the pending bill.
/ BY their energy, industry and appli-
cation in 1917 the home gardeners of
! the United States showed that they
were alive to the call of patriotism.
The garden Stacker received no more
cordial consideration than did the
military Stacker. Home gardening has
come to be regarded as the gift of
patriotic people to nation in need.
1t is also an enterprise of individual
benefit. Thru garden activities Amer
leans in hundreds of thousands of
households have learned new lessons
in the joy of living. Last years eN-
cursion into home gardening was to
many voyage of discovery as to the
delights of the table when supplied
with vegetables freshly gathered from
the home garden. 1t was also Il jour
ney of exploration thru land of
new healthfulness and strength re-
vcaled thru the medium of outdoor
exercise and wholesome vegetable
diet.
The coming season should see the
recultivation of every garden cult
waited in 1917, and the addition of all
the other planting area avail
able. During three and half years
of warfare the allied nations have
drained their agricultural resources
to point where productive possibili-
ties are now at minimum. The
worlds shipping facilities are so in
adequate that the European food sup
ply must necessarily come from Amer

THE GRAYBEARD.

The young men are all going to the
war
Young women are taking their
places,
There is no show for men that are
gray,
Unless they go selling shoe laces.
The old men could usher in a show,
Or be conductor on a car,
And let the girls do household work.
It's better for them far.
Follow domestic service. girls,
Learn to bake good bread,
You are keeping old men out of jobs;
They might as well be dead.
Some day you will be old yourselves
And be in someone's way,
Perhaps you'll think of times gone
past
When you stopt the old mans pay.
Each and all can do their bit,
And help to whip the Kaiser,
But keep away from a mans job,
Be womanly and wiser.
Perhaps your fathers up in years,
And there's Jobs that he could do,
So why not follow woman's work,
And let him get his due?
He is not asking very much,
But only wants his share,
In a few years you'll perhaps shed
tears,
When you see his vacant chair.
-Thos killip.
