4-H'ers Tell
Real Values
In Gardening
"My gardening work really
started when I had to find some
way to earn my college tuition."
"We need a pretty good income,
for there are 11 members in our
family. My garden has supplied
the family with vegetables, not
only to eat and to can for winter
use. but to sell."
"Through 4-H Club work 1 have
learned how to choose a good
garden spot. >elect the right varie
ties to plant, cultivate to conserve
moisture and control diseases and
insects."
These are statements made by
4-H Club members, telling the real
values and reasons that prompted
them to become interested in the
National 4-11 Garden awards pro
gram. Their statements are typi
cal of those made by the 46' state
winners and the 3.850 4-HV; > who
won county awards in the program
last year.

It is a tough, rugged vehiele that can always he dtfinded on to take men and

With selective 2- and 4-whcel drive, the Universal "Jeep" gives speed on
hard roads and ability to get over bad roads or travel cross-country. W ith all
four wheels pulling, you go through mud, sand and snow that stops ordinary
vehicles. The "Jeep" will climb a 60-per-cent grade and maneuver its way
through dense growth.
For every kind of work? on or off the road, in any weather? the Univer
sal "Jeep" measures up to every need. We invite you to drive the "Jeep" fifty
miles and see for yourself.
