Instead of supplying them with food across the waters where shipment is in danger of sub marines, they will be brought to the sources of sup ply, and it goes without saying that these prisoners will be fed better than they have been during a long and arduous campaign. But this is America’s way of .doing things. Even our prisoners of war will not be starved, nor subjected to the cruelties imposed by our enemy countries on our own boys. And when the final verdict of history is written on this war, many pages will be devoted to the humanitarism of the de mocracies, and soundness of the civilization they are fighting for and taking prisoners to uphold. Harvesting our crops is now a serious problem soon to confront, not only farmers, but all of us. The food supplies must be put in storage even if all other business and war effort at critical periods must be loaned to the effort. Not only should every farmer be looking ahead, but every man who can possibly lend a hand should make himself known and avail able regularly or at odd times. Hay must be put in the stack for beef and dairy production, grains must be laid by for pork and poultry products ; and pota toes, fruits and other such products must be saved from loss and waste. It is every patriotic citizen’s business to take some responsibility. The farmers have planted. We must not let them down this sum mer and fall.

North Carolina, is typical of farm children raising victory pigs and devoting profits to War Bonds. Farm Youth of U. S. Looks to Tomorrow I 'OMORROW’S farmers and farm homemakers are second to no school group in their enthusiasm I for investing in War Bonds and Stamps to make sure their future is secure. Through the Schools At War program they are investing what they save and earn in War Stamps and Bonds. First evidence of this is the amount the 4-H Club boys and girls and the FFA boys invested in war savings in 1942 from “Victory Pig” and other projects. A million and a half 4-H Club members put $6,000,- 000 of their own savings in War Bonds and Stamps and sold $2,500,- 000 worth of War Savings to their neighbors. Nearly a quarter mil lion members of Future Farmers of America invested more than $1,- 500,000. Spurred by the realization that the financial welfare of farm fami lies the next 20 years depends on how wisely they use today’s higher incomes from increased food and other wartime production, both groups have set their goals still higher for 1943. ........ These farm youths are building financial reserves, and urging their parents to do the same, for after- the-war necessities, to meet finan cial emergencies and to help them get started in college. They’re building reserves today for. tomorrow’s farm buildings and for the other things they will need when they’re tomorrow’s farmers and homemakers. Go Fonds jo Fighters KEEP EM ROLLING inflation!
