GREATEST FOOD CAMPAIGN

At this critical time in the history
Of our country, when all our resour-

we may be prepared for any eventu-
ality, we all recognize it as our duty,
as we'll as privilege, to help as best
we can with the means at our. COM

One of the great problems confront
ing our people today is the food sup
ply. In this productive valley we are
especially fortunate in that we will
be able to furnish more per acre thar
any other section Of the United
States, and it is up to us to see thai
every acre is planted, and to that enc
we may cooperate to our mutual ben
efit as well as to the benefit of oul
nation.
If YOU have land for rent, let us
know, and we will furnish the renter
If you have land for sale, some ont
will buy if the price is right. We
have several prospective buyers now
who will become actual producers il
they can find what they want at once
Should you need financial assist
ance in connection with your farm op-
erations we can furnish you $50 te
SIS per acre at low rate of inter
est and from five to twenty year,
time.
We expect to do more than our pari
in this great food campaign and ars

sistance to the extent Of helping Us
tc have listed-at an early date
every piece of land available for rent
sale or exchange in this valley. We
have the room and the equipment tt
handle this work and will make this

this great movement. If in convent
ent for you to call early in the week
just drop us card telling Of any piece
Of land you may know that is for rent
or sale. Every available foot of land
should be producing, so let us all work
together to that end and thereby re-
ceive not only the commendation OF
our state and nation, but the gratitude
of those other nations looking to us
with confident assurance that their
needs will be supplied.
