It grows
almost like
Jack’s
beanstalk
To him, it’s amazing. To teeming
millions in crowded areas of the
world, it’s a new source of hope
— of better food, a richer life.
For in food crops, astonishing new
growth is being released by the green
thumb of science.
One striking development in agri
culture, for instance, is plant foods
created by the people of Standard’s
ORTHO Division.
These plant foods come in dry pellet
form .. .and can literally be “rained”
on fields by plane. They can increase
yields of fruit and vegetables 100%,
make pastures rich enough to graze
five times more livestock.
Imagine what advances like these
can mean to the peoples of other
free world nations. Our field men
see it...working with farmers and
the land in 70 countries. Poor soil
becomes fertile; plants become ricn
in nourishment.
j And this has a larger meaning...
more food brings more vitality to
. peoples of crowded lands, a stronger
economy ... a healthier soil for the
\ growth of freedom.
planning ahead to serve you better
