Remember, Tuesday, “Meatless Day”; Wednesday, “Wheatless Day.” Get Your Machinery in Shape for Spring and Summer Work Let us have your repair order early so that you can make your repairs during the early spring weather when you can not haul wood or plow. ° We must all do everything possible to feed the boys that are leaving us to fight our war. How about new machinery for the coming season? Prices will be high. If you have an old machine that can be repaired to do your work, have it attended to at once. Have youa neighbor with-whom you can exchange machines? If so, make such ar- 1'a11gmne'nts. Or, perhaps you can go in with him on a new machine. Co-operate with your ncighbors this year. Make the demand for farm machinery as small as possible and yet work your farm to capacity. Farm products will be worth more than any machinery towards winning the war and this is our greatest business today. 2 " If new machinery is necessary to prepuare for a full capacity crop, it would be both foolish and unpatriotic to refuse to buy the machinery necessary because ‘the prices are higher than you have been accustomed to paying. It is usually poor business to buy cheap inefficient farm machinery, as cost of re- pairs and lost time is likely to eat up the original saving. The John Deere trade mark on a plow or other machine is a mark of quality and guarantees long life—small repair bills—and quick service on your repairs when nec- essary to have them. We are displaying John Deere plows, Harrows, Cultivators, Corn Planters, John Deere Van Brunt Grain Drills, and other machinery for spring use. Place your order for all necessary machinery early as you may not get it when you are ready to use it. Oh! by the way. How many old IForks, Shovels, Rakes, Hose, Axes, Mattaxes and other tools can yon find around home that new handles would put in shape to use. We have the handles and new tools cost like the mischief. March 19th and 20th are DeLaval Repair Days. You pay for this service when you huy a DeLaval Separator, so do not fail to use the free repair service. We attended the elub meeting at Carr Lake school last week, and all the farmers {here are planning bigger crops. Are you? Did you see that fine. lot of fellows that left town Tuesday morning to join the selected army? Major Yost claims they will make the greatest fighting force the world has ever seen. Let us all work harder and plant more that they may have plenty to cat and then you can bet the Major’s guess was good. Do not be afraid to cut wood. There will be a good market for it next year.
