SUPPOSE YOU COULDN'T GET ANY
NEW FARM MACHINES NEXT YEAR

What would you DO!
That's pretty serious question anu
it's one you may have to face because
farm machinery factories may be TAX
en- over by the government to make
war material. If they are there lli"s
be a very serious shortage OF 1arill
machines next year. The thing for eV-
erv farmer to do is to take the very
hest care of every machine he no"
has.
A Machine Shed is an Absolute Ne
cessity to protect them from rust ana
rot and every farmer who hasn't such
shed now should put one up at
once. We will be glad to help you
nlan one and figure it out to cost as
little as possible. Delay on this mat
ter can easily be very serious.
