town and city folks cut down their store
bills one-half last year and saved money

duced wages.
Absolutely millions of dollars wer
saved and countless families lived betic
than ever before in the face of the cotios
crisis and general business depression.
How were these burdensome store hiil
cut down? By the real money-saving
power of good home gardens, rightly
planted and kept planted and tended
through the season.
