The BATTLE CRY.

Our foes are the greatest and most
powerful military nations of the earth.
No one can tell how long this awful
struggle will last. We should under
stand the strength and power OF our
enemies. Their triumph imperils lib
erty and democratic institutions among
the nations. Therefore, we must win
the war at all cost. The whole soul.
strength and energy of our country
must be thrown into this war Just as
fast as it can be marshalled.
Our power and strength does not lie
alone in great army and navy. 1t
takes food, supplies and munitions as
well as soldiers to win a war. The
families and dependents of the million
of gallant sons in our own country as
well as of our allies who will be fight
ing at the front must be feed and
clothed. While those who possess mill
tary qualifications are enlisting to
engage the enemy upon the firing
line. let the many millions who re-
main at home enlist in the great army
to produce the food and munitions
needed. In our locality We are prspar-
ed to produce the foodstuh. Our sons
are enlistng for the front to save the
honor of our country and its flag. Let
the others enlist in the army with the
battle cry More foodstuf in 1917
Every housekeeper, every farmer, yes,
every one who has a spot of ground
available for cultivation must produce
sufficient foodstuf for themselves and
a surplus. Remember that the surplus
will be profit and will helD win the
war. Show your patriotism by inereas-
ing tn supply Of food.
