"Gardening gives me it chance to create both beauty and food. I know I would not be satisfied to raise crops alone. In a row of glorious giadioius, in a bed of Autumn chrylanthemums, in the regal beauty of a huge sunflower, I harvest some thing that satis- fies the heart. Man does not live by bread alone. and one of life's most difficult lessons for many of us is to learn that basic fact. You cannot put a price tag on a sun- sct, nor assay in money the beauty of one perfect flower.
"Gardening to me is the feel of good humus in my hands; it's the placing of seeds in the earth's breast and watching slender spikes of green develop into full- grown plants. It is the peace of dawn when garden soil is moist and dark: it is the good. pervad- ing warmth at midway. It is the lengthening shadows when day is done. and dusk steals down from the hills across my fields. It is the brooding beauty of a Sum- mer's evening when stars the streets" of the sky. and frsgrsnc's of soil is rich and sat- isfying. Gardening means work and planning; it means disap- pointments as well as triumphs. But if I man delights in garden- ing. nothing else satisfies him. It is physical labor. but it is also pleasant dreaming; it is working with the great and fundamental forces of our planet. And while it may be a bit old-fashioned to say it, I also believe that a man can find a part of life's meaning as
