The necessity will be greater as
there will be an increased de-
mand for food for the European
countries as they are released
from Nazi domination. Also a
shortage of labor here will re-
duce supplies in this country.
Probably no frozen foods will
be available because of trans
portation difficulties.
Home gardens raised 42Fo of
the entire garden crop last year
in this country. That is one rea-
son why point values were low
cred on canned vegetables and
that is the way to keep them
down. Valuable information on
