Let Victory Gardening Live On!
:
During the war many a family, for the first time in their lives, ate fresh
vegetables right out of their own garden. Better yet, they found they lilted
'em! If Victory Gardening in America accomplished nothing more, that was a
priceless gain.
Thousands of men, women, and children in cities, towns, and on farms have
* 1? maal* tKs> 1??* # ? -
pem eujujui^ ??
four yean because of their fine re- In
sponse to Uncle Sam's urge to "grow 10
your own." The little backyard patch, "
the vacant lot, or a few square feet of **
ground in a community plot became a !*
gold mine. Over and over it has been u
proved that the food value is greater, f"
the flavor more delicious, when veg
etablee are eaten garden-fresh.
Have you heard of gardening as an q
important form of exercise for health? *
Certain field hospitals began to es- al
tablish Victory Gardens during the war u
to help convalescing service men re- g
build their minds and bodies. Other J
field hospitals all over the country are a
now going ahead with the idea. Doc- n
tors and scientists are urging "back to ^
the soil and gardening" as a vital force PI
in stimulating physical and mental d
health. A garden in connection with u
a hospital must necessarily be the p
"pound of cure." A home garden can
well be an "ounce of prevention." And a
every member of the family can profit ?
** e
In many casas the home Victory a
Garden actually became a family affair. T
Dad, Mom, and the youngsters had fun o
ding, ^
g the rowi, and gathering the luacious
nutoea, tender young peaa and beans,
reet flavored carrots and com. The
cret of continuing this family in
rest aa a delightful peace-time hobby
to plant only as much as can be
red for easily with the work shared
r all.
A special kind of neighborlineas
ew up in America during Victory
ardening years. A business man
lmits that the good-natured rivalry
id vegetable swapping between him
id his next-door neighbor have made
icm friends for life. City femlliee
ho shared a large garden plot and a
snmon picnic table and fireplace
rarby have found a permanently
cher community life. Employers and
mployees working side by side in in
ustrial gardens have reached a better
nderstanding of each other's view
oini.
Will Durant, a popular philosopher
nd psychologist, believes that America
rill never be a true democracy until
very family owns a piece of ground
nd cultivates at least a part of it.
he eighteen million Victory Gardens
f the war years have been a big step
crward that goal.
