Weeders Guide Foresees 1977 Home Gardening Boom
The National Garden Bureau predicts more Americans will grow vegetables at home in 1977 due to weather woes and rising produce costs. President William L. Scott cites drought, flooding, and higher energy and labor expenses as factors driving price increases. He urges planters to start seedlings in greenhouses and seek county agricultural bulletins. Community gardens and county agents offer guidance for beginners. Gladiola winners include Sunray as the 1977 top bloom, with four winners in 1976. The cheetah is noted as the fastest land animal, up to 70 mph.
