AMERICAN FARMER PATRIOTIC
PROVIDES SUPPLIES AND MONE)
Few will guestion the patriotiam of
the American farmer.
If there is any man in whom the love
of home, the love of liberty, and the
love eof independence is thoroughly
grounded, it is the American farmer.
Naturally, therefore, he is the one
man more than any other, wheo will
stand firmly behind his Government
in making the worid safe for Democ
racy.
The farmer is deing, and will cof.
tinue to do, all in his power in the
matter of the production of foeds te
support our people at home, our boys
in the trenches and our dilies.
But it is as necessary to finance lib
erty as it is to fight for it, or to feed
those who fight.
Because all of this is true and be
cause he can afford it on account cf
the prices he is receiving for his prod
ucts, the farmer should be one of the
most eager purchasers of Liberty
Bonds.
Me shouid be willing and glad to
share a part of his profits in support
of his goevernment in the prosecution
of the war.

Mr. Willys summarizes the big pur

“The spirit of the New American |
army is to be made in the next few
months. Mere numbers do not make;
an army; millions of soldiers who
lack the fighting spirit can retreat
without a struggle. The American;
boys must know that the finest ideals |
of civilization are in their hands;?
that the folks at home are living and |
fighting in their hearts. %

“It is planned to furnish enlisted
men hospitality in local social cir

buildings, swimming pools, etc., and
to prevent the exploitation of the
boys by commercialized attractions
of an undesirable sort.”
“Three Dollars for each soldier and
Sailor” is the amount required to
carry on the work for the next year.
This money wili be used in a hun
dred ways, such as building and main
taining clubs for the men, arranging
dramatic, moving picture, musical and
numerous other forms of entertain
ment in auditoriums, clubs, schools,
churches and private homes; in short
to see to it that the community a
