As, from the difficulties in the way of transportation over a long line of imperfect railroad, it was early found that the pressing want of a vegetable diet could not be supplied by shipments from the North, hospital gardens were resorted to as a method of supplying, from the soil of the country adjacent to our hospitals, all forms of fresh vegetables so much craved and needed by their inmates.” p151
