Appeal to Producers

Oh, hens, get busy laying eggs,
keep things in steady motion; we
want to ship a million kegs to
allies DER the ocean. In times of
peace one egg day we all con-
sidered plenty, but in these times
of stress and fray you ought to
turn out twenty. The hen that
will not do her best can't. have
me as a hacker; no loyalty is in
her breast, she is a tinhorn Stacker.
So, Brahma, Leghorn, Plymouth
Rock, Minorca, Scrub and Dork-
ing, lay eggs, lay eggs all round
the clock, and make a record
corking! You should be, in the
country's plight, its stanchest
friends and boosters. Lay eggs,
lay eggs by day and night! Quit
flirting with the roosters! Oh,
cows! "The grass is fine as silk, y
l hear you glibly mutter, and you
should turn out tubs of milk and
fifty kinds of butter. In times of
peace we didn't care if you went
dry or balky, but, now that
shrapnel fills the air, such conduct
is too rocky. We've kept your
stomachs, bovine band, with most
expensive grub full, and now that
milk is in demand, you ought to
give tubful. Speed up, speed
up, if you would save the land
from ruin utter! Don't like
bunch of steers behave, but turn
out milk and butter.
