Farmers Here Urged
To Repair Machines

Bluffton farmers were reminded
again this week to keep their farm
machinery in good state of repair
by Clair A. Patterson, chairman of
the Allen county agricultural war
board.
Farmers can do much to assure
that this years record agricultural
goals will be reached by ordering re-
pair parts and reconditioning every
available piece of farm machinery
while other work on the farm is
slack" Patterson said.
In connection with the campaign
for repair of farm machinery now
under way in Allen county, the
USDA War Board chairman out
lined the following three reasons
why immediate action is important
Farmers are being called upon tc
produce more food and feed crops
than ever before, as their part il
the war effort.
An expected shortage of farm la
Dor will make it necessary to dc
more farm work with machines.
Manufacture of new machinery
has been restricted by the need foi
critical materials in war industries
Don't delay, Patterson advised
farmers, "check your machinery and
order new parts needed. Don't gam

try needs food"

Founders Week Is
Observed By A & p

Veterans of three past wars and
committed to a definite role in the
present world strife, the Great At
lantic and Pacific Tea Company on
Monday, February 10th, began the
observance of Founders Week.
The company, which was two
years old when the war between the
states broke out and which contin-
ued through Appomattox, the con-
quest of Spain and World War l.,
will honor George Huntington Hart
ford, originator of the straight line
method of distribution.
With the opening of hostilities be-
tween this country and the Axis ma
tions, the company charted its course
in an open letter to the American
public pledging cooperation in the
nations effort.
Over the signature of John A.
Hartford, president of the company
and son of the founder, the A & p
pledged itself to continue efforts to
reduce the spread between prices
paid the grower and prices charged
the consumer; to continue to assist
farmers and growers in the orderly
marketing of their products at fair
prices; to continue the payment of
high wages to employees and the
maintenance of good working condi-
tions; to make every effort to hold
inventories to the lowest point con-
sistent with good service to custom
ers because boarding, whether by
wholesalers, retailers, or consumers
will cause higher prices, and to make
every effort to continue to sell food
at retail at the lowest margin of
profit in the history of the retail
grocery business.
Mr.. j. F. Greene, sales director for
the company in this area, in an
| nouncing the observance of Found
er's Week, said: Founders Week
this year comes at a critical period
in our national life. 1t comes at 3

but food, stand between US and the
powers that would destroy US. We
