THE FARMERS’ DITY.
In this time of war there is a
special duty laid upon every Amer
ican citizen. Some have to bear
arn^s and risk their liyes and safety
on dangerous seas and on the bat
tle fronts in Europe. Others must
care for those of them who are
wounded and in performing that
duty risk their lives almost equally
with those who do the actual fight
ing. There are so many brave
Americans performing such duties
for their country that those of us
who remain at home in safety and
security must needs feel the obli
gation on us to do our part.
The farmers of America have an
important duty, a vital national
economic function imposed upon
them. They must provide food for
our armies, food for our families at
homo and4ood for our a\Uoo abroad.
The great and vital importance of
this service has been recognized
and the farmers of the courttry are
directed to be given and will re
ceive special consideratins in the
matter of exemption from military
service.
The service that the farmers of
America are to perform is in the
highest degree patriotic, but it is to
be profitable, too. Never before
1 as the American farmer had such
a market for his products or such
t. emendous purchasers as he has
now in the governments of the
United States and our allies. And
the funds with which these prod
ucts are to be purchased are prac
tically all raised by the sale of Lib
erty Loan Bonds.
ine presidents patriotic call to
the people of America made July
1 1 will find a ready response from
the farmers of our country—
"No true patriot will permit him
self to take toll of our soldiers' he
roism in money, or seek to grow
rich by the shedding of their blood. :
He will give as freely and with as :
unstinted sacrifice as they. They
arc giving their lives. Will he not
at least give his money?”
But buying a Liberty Loan Bond 1
is not making a gift. It is the 2
safest of investments, and consid- '
t ring also its rate of interest and
nontaxable feature it is a rernuner- <
ali /e investment of the first order !
ne pronounce it the premier se
en ity of the world.
1 he farmers of America are
given an easy way to serve their
country, show their patriotism, and
;• oatly benefit themselves. Mon
1 y is needed to feed, equip, arm
and clothe our soldiers at the front.
And money is needed, too, to buy
the pioducts of America's farms
for our army and navy and the
armies and navies of our allies. A
great proportion of this money has
been raised and is to be raised by
the sale cf Liberty Loan Bonds.
T he farmer in supporting the Lib
erty Loan serves his country, his
People and himself, and he serves,
too. the cause of liberty, the cause
of humanity and civilization. i
