Hundreds of gardens were planted by people new to soils and conditions here, and their industry and patriotic ef forts are being rewarded. While Spring came slow ly and there has been little warm weather, rains fell frequently and nature in all ways seemed to favor the gardener. Many were inexperienced ; they pur chased seed from every source ; tools for tilling were few ; fertilizers were rarely used, but the gardens just like Topsy, just grew. It must be said that the gar deners were diligent. They were inspired by the ad vancing cost of living, point requirements for other foods, and by the general countrywide necessity for production. Larger families faced a war strategy that was unusual, and met it. Summer supplies and stores for Winter have promise *of being abundant. If all war effort proves as successful as the gardeners of this defense area, victory cannot be far away. • Radar, after a decade of secret experimentation, has been given to the world and is being used as one of the war’s greatest weapons. Its recent greatest test was at Guadalcanal when a Japanese warship was located at a distance of eight miles through clouds, and the American guns were set according to instruments, and the warship hit and destroyed. It was used some in the battle of Britain, and is alleged to have been the great factor in the defeat of the Ger man assaults on London. Whatever the weather con ditions, the radar instrument locates the approach of the bomber, or warship, and the speed and size, at great distance, in time to meet the approaching ene my in unexpected spaces. The Axis forces also have some of the principles of the instrument, but fortun ately the Americans and British are much farther ad vanced in its uses. Corporations are now being formed to construct the instrument for great uses in peace time in the general navigation of the air for transportation purposes.
