MUST HAVE MORE MEAT.
Why Backwards and Farms Must
Raise More Chickens, Ducks and
Geese.

Because of the war the meat re-
serves of the world are diminished
The herds of live stock in Europe
have been reduced by slaughter made
necessary in order to feed the armies
Our own meat production in the
years just preceding the war was
barely sufficient for our own uses
And yet we are now called upon not
only to feed ourselves, but to feed
Europe to a large extent. And we
must do it if we win the war.
Where will we get the meat?
You can do your part, on your
farm and in your backyard by pro-
ducing more poultry-increasing the
supply of eggs and chickens, geese
and ducks. Our total number Of

No Overlooking.
"There will be no overlooking of

same high value placed upon faith
fulness, long service and ability now
as before the war. In fact, it is to
prevent any discrimination Of this
kind that we have asked the employ
ers and employees to create an ad-
visory council to work with the Seat

any misunderstanding.
Our ability to get ships depends
on the assembling of men to build
them. If all cooperate we can carry
through the assembling quickly and
efficiently.
