Crops
The whole country is making a determined

There is a waiting market for every pound of it,
and this will add millions to the incomes of the
farmers.
Factories will be working day and night
to turn out the enormous supplies required by
our own government and our allies. Millions
and millions again will go into the pockets of
the people.
Some of this money will be banked, but
MUCH OF IT WILL BE SPENT. It will be
