NATO Divisions and Market Guide Highlight Weekend Plans

The article combines a note on NATO strategic strength with a practical weekend shopping guide. It lists eight full strength NATO divisions versus roughly 175 Soviet divisions west of the Urals, then shifts to a Maine extension service guide detailing corn husking, cooking times, and a broad list of seasonal produce, dairy, meats, and fish with price guidance. It identifies common vegetables, fruits, and seafood as value buys for weekend meals.
