OLIVER SENDS CALL
TO YOUNG FOLKS
FOR THEIR WAR AID

This is the time when every one.
both Young and old, can aid their
great Nation. The one great need Of
/ the Nation in this world crisis is food
A Nation is no stronger than its food
supply i'm peace or war. Our section
of the Nation stands in position to be
lacking in this food supply, even for
its own use, to the extent of close to
hundred million dollars unless every
one joins in to prevent it. Many are
mindful and are making preparations,
but more are needed.
Every boy and girl who are mem
! bers of the different agricultural clubs,
such as the pig club, the corn club,
the four crop club, the calf club, the
poultry club, the canning club, are
Just as truly helping to win the victory
over the enemy to freedom and democ-
racy as in the man who uses the gun
in the front of the battle. They are
food producers, and it takes about
five producers to keep a fighter at the
front. There are fairly good number
OF these young producers in Sumter
county. but there is need of more. Be-
low is the names of boys in Sumter
county who are working to help to in
crease this food supply that our coun-
| try NAV stand in need o:

All these boys are growing, or will
grow, both purbred pig and an acre
of corn. This is not half the number
in the country who ought to grow a
pig and some corn. 1t is a good way
to make some money. 1t has been
heretofore, but with the prices of
meat and meal that will obtain for the
next several months to come even more
money can be made. Besides these
boys are showing their patriotism in as
true a sense as IL can / q shown in any
other way The time for the enroll
ment of club members has been ex-
tended until the first of June. Are there
not some other boys in the county who
want to grow pig into a big hog to
help themselves and to increase the
food supply? If so write your name
and address on a postal card and mail
it to W. J. Boyett Americas, and he
will enroll you and send you literature.
Think quick, act promptly Get into
helping Uncle Sam to fight the enemy.
Il It is needed.
