REDUCE THE COST OF LIVING
10 GUINEAS IN PRIZES. 'You can help' your country now, and help yourself at the same time. Eat less meat and more vegetables, and grow these yourselves. You'll find them far better quality and flavour—much fresher and cheaper. You can grow most vegetables at less than ono penny per pound. To encourage food production and gardening we offer ten guineas in prizes for the best small vegetablo gardens for the coming season. This competition is to encourage small gardoners, and therefore only those who do not employ a gardener may compete. The sizo of garden is no object: even if it be only the size of an ordinary backyard it will have as good a chance as a larger one. The quality of contents and neatness shall be deemed tho chief merits. We are making up special collections seeds for the season's gardening; for small gardens 3s. Gd. and 55., and for lnrger gardens 7s. Gd., 10s„ and 20s. These collections give wonderfully good value. Details of competition on application to F. Cooper, Ltd., seed merchants. Cooper's Buildings, (opp. "Evening Post"). Wellington, the largest growers and saflers of -seeds in Australasia.—(G2a, by Arrangement.)
