The designs are exceeding ly attractive and unite to convey a powerful appeal and to create a na tional atmosphere which will prevent any one from ignoring the fact that Uncle Sam’s fifth great financial drive is going forward with even more vigor than any of its notable predecessors. The keynote poster of the loan —the great twenty-four sheet poster which through the patriotic co-operation of the Poster Adv<vtising Association will adem the billboards of the coun try, and a smaller poster adapted from the same design—sychronizes with the robust slogan, "Finish the job.” This poster, which is considered by many critics to be the greatest Liberty Loan poster that has been produced, appeals to every man who works with his hands, he he laborer, farmer, sail or, railroad man or other representa tive of the American army of brawn and muscle. He Is the worker with his right hand in his pocket reaching for money with which to invest in the Victory Liberty Loan. This man, paint ed by Gerrit Beneker, obviously has no sympathy with bolrhevism. He is a partner with his government. His but tons of the four previous Liberty Loans bear evidence of his share In solv ing the financial problems which came up in the stress of the fight, and bis attitude and expression of ready confidence on his face Indicate con clusively that again he stands ready to provide the necessary money for the nation, while, with admirable com mon sense and prudent forethought, making the soundest of Investment for himself. The display of twenty-four sheet pos ters of this design aggregates 35,000, and is believed to be the largest dis play of twenty-four sheet posters ever made in the United States. The ag gregate donations of space for war ac jtivities by the Poster Advertising As scc’ation, which is chiefly responsible for the free display of these large bill board posters has been estimated at 11,500,000. The official issue of the smaller pos A regular ad. in The Henry County Weekly is a Good Thing for Real Live Business Men. ters of the Victory Liberty Loan em jbraces fewer designs than any previ ous loan, but approximately the same number of pieces. Foremost on the list of the smaller posters is the adaptation of the twen ty-four design, size 26 in. x 38 in., lith ographed in eight impressions by Ed iwards and Deutsch, of which 1,768,705 copies have been ordered, in response to requests received at Washington ifrom the respective Federal Reserve District Victory Liberty Lean organi zations. Then comes the design enti tled “For Home and Country,” paint |ed by Alfred Bveritt Orr, representing the reunion of a returned soldier with •his wife and child. i This poster has been lithographed in eight impressions and two sizes. Of the 20 in. x 30 in. size 860,725 have been produced and of the 30 in. x 40 iin. size 711,312. The “symbol”’ poster of the Victory Liberty Loan is a blue “V” outlined in white to give great visibility on a mot tled red ground with the word “In vest” in white below the “V.” The entire poster is outlined in white and has a broad blue border. It constitutes an enlargement of the 12 C wind shield .sticker and is similar to the “Teaser” •poster which was used as a mystifying introduction to the general poster cam paign. Approximately 1,000,000 of these posters have been lithographed. The poster “Americans All,” paint ed by Howard Chandler Christy, rep resenting a woman paying tribute to the Americans of diverse racial ori gins, who gave their lives for the flag on the fields of France, is considered by Mr. Christy to be the finest war painting he has ever produced. Of this designed there have been lithographed 1,893.426 posters in nine impressions, else 27 in. x 40 in. A poster which should give lively satisfaction to every individual who takes pride in the achievements of the American Expeditionary Forces is from the brush of Clyde Forsythe, size 80 in. x 40 in., and lithographed in nine impressions, with a second edition in •the 20 in. x 30 in. size. Of the larger size the edition is 1,000,000; of the smaller, 467,600. The design shows a doughboy carrying German helmets, 'returning wounded, but triumphant and happy from a victorious assault upon the German trenohes.

It must carry a painful lesson to the Germans, who during the war were re galed with German posters picturing Uncle Sam with an insignificant army and purporting to prove that America icould not become an important factor in the conflict. The sea forces are recognized in the Victory Liberty Loan series by L. A. Shafer's poster, designed, engraved and lithographed in eight impressions, size 30 in. x 40 in. and oblong in shape. This poster is a spirited depiction of the saving of an American transport from a German submarine and should appeal to every admirer of our navy. A camouflaged American destroyer has (cut across the bow of a great trans port laden with troops and looming out of the mist, just in time to drop a depth bomb on a lurking German sub marine, which instead of sinking the itransport, has been compelled to come : to the surface and surrender. The National Woman’s Liberty Loan icommittee will have 300,000 posters, ; size 20 in. x 30 in., executed with ar- Itistic restraint in gray and black on buff by J. M. Howlett. i A “flyer” poster for the spe cial purpose of advertising the avia 'tion feature of the Victory Liberty Loan publicity campaign also will be used. A special poster approximately four t feet in height by 28 feet in length has been prepared, the wording being ‘‘They have given their all forever. You are asked to lend for & while.” There is also an eight-sheet poster, white letters on a red ground, reading “ Practical Patriotism the Victory Liberty Loan” and a three-sheet pos ter in one piece carrying a large “V” and the wording “Invest Victory Lib erty Loan” in red and blue on white. The Victory Liberty Loan posters are released for display beginning on April 13, or approximately a week in advance of the Victory Liberty Loan Campaign, which opens April 21 and ends May 10.'

Therefore, a pound of Buckeye Hulls goes a third again as far as a pound of old style hulls. In other words, you only have to feed pound of Buckeye Hulls to give the same food value as a full pound of old style hulls. Other Advantages Buckeye Hulls cost much less per No trash or dust. ton than old style hulls. Sacked —easy to handle. Buckeye Hulls allow better as- They mix well with other forage, similation of other food. They take less space in the barn. Mr. Ben Faulk, Dothan, Ala., prefers Buckeye Hulls to old style hulls because cows like them as well, they are cheaper, they agree with the cows, and they go farther, one sack lasting as long as two sacks of the old style. To secure the best results and to develop the ensilage odor, wet the hulls thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It is easy to do this by wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer to feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style hulls.
