He should extend himself by means of credit and take advantage of the rising price situation. During the latter part of an in flationary period he should talk like an optimist and act like a pessimist. He should liquidate his debt and put as many inflationary dollars as possible into a fixed investment. No fixed investment is more satisfactory for this pur pose than War Bonds of the United States. In addition to laying aside pres ent easily obtained money to use when its purchasing power has in creased, there are several other reasons why farm ers should buy and keep War Bonds. Reserve for Needed Replace ments and Improvements. Every farm er knows that his machinery and equipment gradually wear out and become obsolete. During this time when new machinery and equipment is difficult to obtain, he should lay aside funds with which to replace this equipment when it becomes more readily available following the war. Prevent Inflation. This war is costing twice as much per year as the total cost of World War I. To the extent that the Government can borrow this required money from individuals out of savings or funds that otherwise would be available for living, inflation will be averted. That is why the Gov ernment is much more interested Brazil Fosters Poultry Improvement Program The Brazilian American Food Commission is fostering the devel opment of the poultry industry in northern Brazil to meet war-ex- pande.d demand in t^al area for meat and eggs by armed forces and workers on strategic projects. The poultry program supplements in creased production of fruits and vegetables to reduce the depend ence of the area upon imported food stuffs Nineteen poultry units have been established in five northern states of Brazil. Others are being added. These units soon will have more than 50,000 birds, according to re ports received by the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Af fairs. Poultry specialists from the United States are working with Brazilians in the chicken-raising projects as part of a cooperative arrangement between Brazil and the United States fpr expansion of food output in the strategic northern areas. New poultry units are being stocked \^ith improved strains from breeding stocks established from breeds largely imported from the United States and adapted to Bra zilian conditions. Stock from these new units will be available for dis tribution to poultry raisers who wish to improve the quality of their flocks. D. K.

P ro te c tio n . This country and the war effort have been blessed with six successive years of phenome nal crop yields and agricultural production. If a penny is tossed six times and comes up heads every time, the probability of the seventh toss is still 50-50, heads and tails. Although the succes sion of good crop years does not necessarily portend crop fail ure to come, nevertheless crop failure is always something that •should be considered possible. Money invested in War Bonds will provide protection for living ex penses and capital during the dif ficult years. S afe In v e stm e n t. As a rule the paying off of the “mortgage’’ is a farm er’s best investment. During the -w ar years, however, many farmers have accomplished this, and are now seeking a safe invest ment for extra cash. No invest ment is safer than the Bonds of our Government. Not only is this investment a safe one, but the re turns are attractive. Series E Bonds held for 10 years return in terest of 2.9 per cent, compounded annually—in 10 years $4.00 for each $3.00 put in. Patriotic Motive. Not to be for gotten is the fact that this war must be won. Farm ers have more sons and daughters in the service per family than any other group of our population. We must pro vide them with the planes, tanks, guns, ships, and other m aterials necessary to speed their return home. __ £/. S. Treasury D epartm ent Small Defect* Ofl*n Retard C h ild Development Many great men and women overcame their physical dfe(ects and made their mark on the pages of history. Blind and speechless, Helen Keller graduated from col lege. Thomas A. Edison was deaf, and Charles P. Steinmetz. another electrical wizard, was a hunchback. The publisher of one of America’s leading magazines is a stutterer, finding it difficult to carry on a smooth flow of conversation when excited. The President of the United States, with remarkable determi nation, overcame the handicaps visited upon him by an attack of in fantile paralysis in middle life. Because of the many great per sonages who have achieved success ful careers in spite of great handi caps, there are some .who say that minor physical defects are rela tively unimportant. That is not always correct, it is asserted. For example, studies made by psychol ogists among school children dis close that uncorrected visual de fects in youngsters tend to make them shy and slow in adjusting themselves in work and play with others. Some social investigators go so far as to say that uncorrected shortcomings in sight may be an important factor in juvenile de linquency. While it is true that persons with unusual intelligence, vitality and courage can rise far* above their fellows, despite physical defects, it also appears that in the average person correction of shortcomings, when upssible, will facilitate his earning a living and improve his ability to become a. useful member of society.
