1 a ERE N ese ee ce Appeal to Our Trade Almost every American citizen has been reading or has been told that having on hand more than 30 days’ supply of wheat flour would be considered as hoarding, whether this flour would have been bought before the rules went into effect, or a year or more ago. ] In order to comply with the wishes of the Food Administration, to return any excess flour on hand, and we will be pleased to allow regular market prices for same, either in cash or trade. Would also advise you to bring your wheat, barley or any other grain you may have to us, we will be glad to exchange it or pay you more than twice as much for it as we would charge you for millfeed, which in most cases gives you better results than your whole grain. Do not feed any whole grain, as it is badly needed to keep the world from starvation, and considering it a patriotic duty, we would advise all our =a pay you to order at once as it will not last long. Leave your orders for corn—either whole, rolled or pulverized. A car expected any time. Corn is a stronger feed than any other grain, We are ready to clean your “seed grains,” plete line of cleaning machinery in the country. We have a car of lump salt. Just the thing for stock.
