Foreseeing this many months ago, we -had the pleasure and the privilege of offering a donation of One Hundred Guineas’ worth of Cooper’s famous seeds ((mostly grown by us in N.Z.) for use to increase the supplies of fresh vegetables and cool salads of “our boys” in England, France and (or) by French peasants to help to re-sow their torn and bleeding country. A little help is better than a lot of pity. The Hon. the Minister of Defence, Sir James Allen, kindly wrote us under date December 1, 191, saying, “I am very grateful indeed to you and shall be only too pleased to accept your generous offer.” We deemed it a, privilege to be able to help. The seeds were forwarded the next week and now thousands of packets of Caper's Seeds of Success are being sown in France and England.
