HOW FARMERS CAN BRING
LABORERS BACK TO LAND

During the coming crop growing
season the farmers will be in need
of help upon the land as never before.
Farm hands have been attracted TO
the great labor centers by the un-
usual high wages offered; wages with
which the farmer cannot compete.
Now, then, let every farmer-and
every loyal person-ponder on this:
Whenever you resist the temptation
to buy needless article you will save
the labor of some skilled mechanic to
replace it, in order to keep up the
supply. Thousands Of skilled me-
chanics, whose time would thus be
saved, would be released to 60 to the
shipyards, munition shops and the like.
If every farmer would grasp this life
saving fact and act upon it, and en-
courage others to do so, it would stop
the drain of labor from the farms; 1t
would undoubtedly send back to the
land the unskilled hands who have
left it for government employment
and who have not been trained for
such work

BUY BONDS, SAYS BOX.

If every woman in America cor
rectly undo TODD the safety to her
self in an investment in a Liberty
Loan bond, I doubt if there would be
many bonds left for the men to buy.
These bonds should have an unusual
attraction to a woman left with small
means to invest, since she is gener-
ally not as well Informed as q man
with regard to safe investments. She
wants to put her money where It is
safe, because, as a rule, it IS all that
she has, but she does not know where
to put it. There are thousands Of
such womer all through the country
who are naturally timid about invest
ing their money. and [ wish that my
words might reach every woman so
placed so that she might look for her
self into the unusual opportunity Of
fered her for a safe haven for her
money. Her own intelligence would
then quickly convince her that her
dream of placing her money where she
cannot lose it had come true. If any
word of mine can help such woman
to reach a decision, am only too glad
to speak it and to urge her to do the
double duty that is hers: First, the
duty to the safety Of her own money,
and, second, the duty that she per-
forms to her country when she buys

SOCK MONEY MUST COME
OUT TO PROTECT FARMER

Since the dark ages the farmer-the
most peace loving ci;izen-has been
the man who suffered most from war.
His crops. his everything, arc usually
consumed by the invading armies.
But the farmer is q warrior when
he once realizes that war Is the only
thing that will keep him free. Since
the war was declared against the CEN
trail powers he has not had the same
chance to quickly grasp what it is all
about.
But now he is coming to a full
knowledge Of the barbarous enemy
with which we are at war
Reports from the rural districts
throughout the Fifth federal reserve
district indicate that the farmers are
ready to assist in heavy subscription
to the third Liberty Loan.
We are now in the crucial year of
the war. Our boys are at the front,
hundreds of thousands Of them in the
trenches and a million more ready to
90. The treasury department has the
whole burden OF the war on its shoul-
2crs.
Every nickel and dime that can be
rakcd up and scraped together will
help Uncle Sam whip tho Hun. Don't
think the money left in the sock or
other hiding places will help. 1t must
he put into Liberty bonds.
