Victory gardens urged to fight food shortage in Iowa
A. L. Brown Iowa Extension Director urges every family to grow a victory garden to supplement food supplies. A Des Moines report says each garden saved a life in Europe by boosting food for famine-threatened nations. Farmers are noted as ready, with Iowa farm gardens larger than city plots. A bullet list of recommended varieties and pest control is available from the county extension office. An African Lily, shown by Wert Reid of Hamburg, grew seven inches in one night and reached six feet in bloom, though its strong perfume limits its popularity as a house plant.
