S. has been growing more of its own vegetable seeds than it did before. But the requirements of the United Nations forced U. S. growers to mak.e "phenomenal efforts. In prewar years the average three-year production of the large seeded vegetables such as peas, beans and sweet corn was about 100 million pounds, in 1943 and 1944 the average was nearly 300 million pounds. The three-year average production of small vegetable seeds was formerly about 10 million pounds, the 1944 production was more than 35 million pounds. The four leading biennial seed crops, beets, cabbage, carrots and onions, in 1944 showed production of nearly IVi times the prewar average. Order your rubber stamps s| the , Plalndealer.
