The Missionary Gardens

MANY dollars can be brought into the treasury of the Lord to be used in spreading this gospel to foreign lands, if our children are given, and properly cared for, missionary gardens. Many of our church-schools have given attention to this point, and have encouraged the children in preparing and caring for these gardens in connection with their school work. This is, however, a matter to which parents may well lend substantial encouragement and direction. The children not only get the benefit from the work and education of properly raising the products from the garden; but better than this, they are, in a practical way, taught to see the true object of the labor and gain; namely, the giving of truth to hungry souls, and seeking for their welfare.
