1t falls the lot of the people at
home to not only support themselves,
but also to raise food for the soldiers
who are on the battlefield. The
women and girls can fight for this
grand America of ours. even more
than the soldiers if they will try to
produce this greatly needed food.
There are 34,915,200 acres of land in
Florida that could produce food for
the soldiers and the thousands Of
starving people.
Girls of Florida. how many acres
of this land ere in cultivation? Only
think what help it would be if ev-
cry acre of this land were put into
cultivation?
Tho way you can help to feed the
world, the way you can make happy,
healthy. beautiful. independent wom-
en- of yourselves is to join the girls
canning club.
know of many, many families who
are really dying, dying for the want
of proper food. How they would en-
ioy few fresh, red tomatoes or
something else like them! Yet these
very families have land where moth
ing is growing, or if they have none
how much would it cost to rent one
tenth acre?
On this little piece of ground the
girls of the family can raise enough
fresh vegetables to supply the fam
ily. And not only fresh vegetables
but they can earn from their demon
traitor how to can and prepare foods
for the next season and for the mar
ket.
Shop girls, you can care for your
little tenth acre plot after working
hours, and in this way you can not
only get recreation and escape the
dust Of a tiny office, but at the same
time YOU can make money for your
self and help the world along too.
You are wasting your time and
your money when you spend your
leisure hours in little dusty moving
picture show.
If every girl in Florida will come
TO at east one of our canning CLUB
meetings and visit our gardens, ] be-
lieve that if she really understands
the good that canning clubs are dong
for the people of Florida of the U.
S. for that matter, she will join the
club
Not only girls but women are in
yited to join the club. We are al
wavs glad for the ladies to help us.
We urge that they join the women's
canning club. These clubs not only
teach the women and girls to raise
food, but they teach them how TO
save food A hungry soldier is
poor fighter; therefore one way to
make him a good fighter is to give
him something to eat.
How many of you girls want your
brother or your father or sweetheart,
who is in the army. to suffer?
How would you women feel if you
thought that your brother, husband,
or son was hungry? Suppose that a
battle is being waged and your boys
we're fighting for you when they had
had nothing to eat that day and there
is no hope of getting anything to-
morrow
Think of this when you say that it
is too much trouble to try TO have
a canning club garden.
Help to save the country now
In the few years since the canning
club was organized il has done a
world of good for its members. Some
have helped to support their fami-
lies, other girls have made their own
spending money and still others have
paid their own way thru college.

What Is Rheumatism?
Why Suffer from It?

Sufferers Should Realize That It Is
A Blood Infection and Can Be
Permanently Relieved. Don't
Suffer This Winter.
Rheumatism means that the blood
has become saturated with uric acid
poison.
1t does not require medical advice
to know that good health is absolutely
dependent upon pure blood. When the
muscles and joints become sore and
drawn with rheumatism, it is not a
wise thing to take a little salve and
by rubbing it on the sore spot, expect
to get rid of your rheumatics. You
must go deeper than that, down deep
into the blood where the poison turks
and which is not effected by salves
