A PLEA FOR HARVEST HANDS

In view of issues depending on saw
ing and conserving food products of
the country during the war the under
signed members of the Council of De-
Tense believe It our duty to call on all
our citizens to make extra efforts to
save the grain now ripening in the
fields, especially wheat. The needs
of the armies in camp and trench de-
man a maximum of production on the
farms and a minimum of consumption
in the homes, and this requires a CO.
ordinate effort of products and labor
ers.
To save the grain men and macEin-
cry must be in the fields day and
night if necessary. Farmers who
nave harvesters should help the farm
ers who have none and men who can
work in the harvest field should get
into the field as patriotic duty, and
help the farmers, though they have to
close the store or shop. The need is
imperative and should be met in the
spirit of patriotism.
The Council of Defense wants all
who can and will work in the harvest
field to report to the council, and all
farmers who want help in the harvest
to apply to either of the undersig ed
members thereof. We want to get
job for the man who has no job, and
get help for the man who has no help.
The hardware firms of Springdale
will answer phone calls of any farm
ers VINO needs repairs, binder tvtine or
any other accessory and the council
will answer the call of anyone want
ing work or hands Farmers, let US
know what you need that we may be
able to help you. We will send or
go to your help if we have to ask ev-
cry business man in town to close the
doors of his business house, and put
on overalls and grab a pitchfork. Our
country calls. We mus heed the
call
