"To the Farmers Of America:
mo finer patriotic service was ever
rendered than when the farmers OF
America, short Of labor, credit and
farm supplies, still grew the increas-
ed crops without which we could not
have won the war. The farm women
and children gave their labor in the
fields and the farms sent more than a
million Of their best to join the col
ors. The more that is known about
the war, the more gloriously our farm
ers' part in it will shine.
"The Victory Liberty Loan Drive
begins April 81 and continues until
May 10. We appeal to you, farmers OF
America, to finish what you have SO
we'll begun. Make this loan as superb
a success as the war crops you have
raised. See to it that the farmers
lead in putting the Victory Loan over
the top.
Make your participation In the
VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN both in
money and service, the measure Of
your devotion to the great cause oil
democracy-the democracy for which
many Of our boys have made the sd
preme sacrifice. Let your subscrlp
ton and your effort be both an OF
fering Of Thanksgiving for the return
of peace and the means by which ths
world may measure the strength O.
your patriotism and your determine
ton to see to it that the war shall
not have been fought in vain.
