KITCHEN GARDENS
SPECIAL EFFORT ADVISED (By Teleprapn—Pr«ss Association) WELLINGTON, Sunday Intensified cultivation of kitchen gardens is urged by the Minister of Internal Affairs, the-Hon. W. E. Parry, as being a helpful practicable way for members of the community to not only assist themselves but their kinsmen overseas during the war. The production of vegetables by householders ;n cities, towns and suburbs was of great value from the economic and health standpoints and in addition a pleasant, interesting and recreative occupation. Mr Parry said splendid service could be rendered by city and town people in helping farmers in the drive toward sending more foodstuffs abroad. The Maori people could also join in the work by turning much waste land into fields of healthy profitable vegetables and so assist in providing an all-round increase in the country’s national food production.
