own farms are ready, the minute war ends, to build
and repair bams and buildings and make many
other improvements. Tenants, too, arc on the look
out for farms of their own to build on in the post

dollars. Wise farmers have been saving the money
for these purposes. Many of them have saved it in
W ar Bonds— and many more are on their way.
WHEN THE BOYS COME HOME. Your youngster in
service is doing a m ans job now— and he expects
to do a man s job when he gets home again. But he
won’t be happy with run-down buildings and in

for stepping up your purchase of W ar Bonds. Y o u ’re

and at the same time preparing for the kind of
home he wants to come back to.
