Helping on the Farms.

Farm women, boys. and girls in
Indiana are helping food production by
taking the places Of the men who have
been called to the colors and the city
industries. Investigation Of the cost
of milk production, conducted by the
dairy division Of the United States
department of agriculture, in co-opera'
ton with Purdue university, shows
that, in 1856, hired men performed
nearly half of the work in the diaries
In the Chicago milk district of northern
Indiana. A year later, after many OF
these men had left to join the army or
responded to the higher wages paid by
the steel mills and munition factories
at Gary, Ind, and other cities, the
women and young people went out to
the barns and are now performing over
half of the labor which was formerly
done by the hired e The men who
are left at home are also spending
more time in the diaries, but, were 1t
not for the fact that their families are
helping them. they would have consid'
erably less time to devote to the pro.
duction Of m~uch.needed crops.

DON'T WASTE CAR SPACE

You know that, at this time,
food is precious and that none
Of 1t can be allowed to go to
waste.
Do you know that, at this time,
freight car space Is equally
precious and that to waste it Is
to invite disaster?
When shipments Of produce
and other p%erishable food prod
ucts are not properly packed In
the car. they fare badly and
there Is loss of food.
When produce, vegetables and
the like are not properly packed
in the car. there is loss Of equal
~ valuable car space.
For your own protection from
money loss, and for the protec-
ton Of the country from food
loss and shipping loss, exercise
scrupulous care to see that ship
ments are packed properly in
the car.
