THE DURHAM CHRUNifi'LE The high cost of living is having its effect in an increased amount of garden production. We‘ll venture to say that never before in the his- tory of the town were the gardens of Durham so extensively worked as they are in the present year. For years The Chronicle has been. advocating the cultivation of gar- den products. hut only a threatened famine has caused a united ell‘ort. Even in times when vegetables are cheaper, it. has prrrved a matter of cheaper, it has proved a IlluLLUL‘ u; economy to many to raise at least. a part of their own vegetables. Let us imagine, for a moment, the general effect of a united effort on the part of the townspeople. We. will suppose that in ordinary times. and under normal conditions in the town. there are 400 gardens, all of which are worked in a greater or less degree. This year, the num- ber may not be increased. but the MM. ...- mam? “7i" be. enlarged by less degree. This year, the num- ber may not be increased. but the areas at many will be enlarged by taking in land that had hitherto gone in waste. or was used for or- namentatiun at the premises, the cultivation of flowers, or. perhaps. the cultivation of wemls. hose. ad- ditional SDE‘ICPS, through the change in canolitinns and necessities, are used fer feed productinn. and tie benefits will he felt during the coming winter season. If in each of the 400 gardens, through better and more intensive gardening. an average of three bags gardeni g an average of three bags of potatoes. or their equivalent in ether pmduets, have been produced the output will make a telling d11- ferenee. Twelve hundred bags of potames would make a couple of O ~A“.“~ ub’ V._'\u‘rr ference. Twelve hundred bags of potatoes would make a couple of ear leads. and that, last sprine. when potatoes were $4.50 a has. would prove a veritable godsend, and divert the {money spent for them into other channels that were equally pressing. ‘ I . L_--A_.r‘~ â€"-‘_ It \anlld he a saying last spring of over $3,000.00 to the inhabitants of this town and Vicinity. But, you hear somehoiutly say. potatoes were generally sold at 50 cents to $1 a bar That may be true, but what, of it? A bag of potatoes at 50 cents has as much food in it as a bag at $4.50. and the beauty of it is that the man who plants and takes care= of them will he none the worse for the exercise, even if he does work all day in a factory, or elsewhere. Taking part. of our food out of the earth that frequently goes to waste for want of proper cultivation is one of the lessons taught us by the war. and may he continued when the war closes. It helps to reduce Hm an: m‘ living now. and will of them will he none the worse lot-1 the exercise. even if he does work all day in a factory. or elsewhere. Taking part. of our food out of the earth that frequently goes to waste for want of proper cultivation 15 one of the lessons taught us by the war. and may be continued when the war closes. It helps to reduce the cost of living now, and will help to reduce the cost of living then. More than that, it will breed thrift and industry. a most valuable asset in any community. TO REDUCE COST OF LIVING In a few weeks more. the Fall F airs will be in full swing. and it. is high time that the fair to be held here should be given a fair share of publicity. The management should have some idea of the attractions they intend to offer. and should keep them before the public right up to the date of the fair. A small reader every week in the local? press, at five cents a line, will not cost much, and the gate receipts on Fair Day will see it returned with big interest. The great. secret of success in advertising is in keep- ing constantly at it. Tell the pub- lie in plain truth the inducements to be offered, and deliver the goods Thursday, July 19th, 1917 when the time comes. When con-l fidence is thoroughly established, future advertising xvi-1'1 be more ef- fective. and far less trouble. Ad- \ertise the Fair new and keep din- ning at it eV er} nee".
