generous effort. They are seuding men

FARMERS AFFIDAVITS
MUST SUPPORT CLAIMS OF
HANDS FOR DEFERME NT

A new draft of about 10000 men
shortly will be called to the colors
The Provost Marshal General has
ordered that "men actively, completely
and assiduously engaged in the plant
ing or cultivation of crop but who
are listed in Glass / and within the
new quota should be deferred until the
end Of the new quota"
The local draft boards, being judi
cial bodies, cannot defer the call Of
such men, however, unless the farm
ers employing them comply with the
law and support their claims for do
ferred calling from affidavits It is
therefore of vital Importance that
farmers employing necessary men
within the new quota Immediately ex-
ecute and file such affidavits with the
local boards.
II farmers whose hands are affected
by this new call fail TO follow this
advice, they will have no cause for
complaint if their men are taken from
them at this critical time. II will be
useless and unreasonable later TO pro-
test if they have done nothing TO re-
tain their help. Immediate action on
the part Of every farmers concerned
is essential and should not be delayed
under any circumstances.
