We are glad to join wholeheartedly in this campaign because we realize that no country can be any more prosperous than the farmers inhabiting it. Restore pros-! perity to the western farms and the entire west will prosper. The most we can do in this campaign is to encourage the purchase of western farm products by specially pricing them by making it to your advantage to familiar ize yourself with their superior quality. Especially is this true of breakfast cere als just why oats and other western grains are improved in quality by freight charges to the east, there to be milled and freighted back again to be sold here at higher prices is something we never could understand. So familiarize yourself with Western Farm Products. There is a Western Farm Product for every need.
