T AM well acquainted with the objections
made to the city gardens, namely, that
the money that is expended In working
them would,buy many times over the foods
which they produce. grant for the sake
of the argument the truth Of this state
ment But call attention to the fact, that
If nothing was done with the back lots they
would produce no food.
call attention further to the fact that
food is about one thousand times more i'm
portant IN this country at this time than
money. call attention further to the fact
that money was never 80 plentiful in this
country as now, and food was never so
scarce. II It does cost dollar 10 produce
twenty-five cents worth Of vegetables on
a back lot, the vegetables are produced.
don't know any better way to invest the
dollar that the city man has to spend than
in making It produce twenty-five cents
worth of food.
But really nobody should hire hand to
work his garden or his back lot. He should
do it himself His wife and children should
help him. Then the food produced will be
paid for only in spare time and healthful
labor.
The same argument which Is urged
against the cultivation Of the city garden
is urged against home canning. have no
doubt that it is far more expensive to can
foods at home and that they are not 30
well canned as when this work is done In
a large factory properly equipped for the

But the large factory is the four-billion-
