uying lumber and hog wire at this time is the best in-
vestment you ever made. There are several very
good reasons. : •;
'nusual conditions make it possible to get twice as
much lumber and hog wire as you did in 1914 tor
the same amount of farm produce.
rnvestment in lumber and hog wire and the placing,
*■ ot new buildings on youf property will increase its
value out of all proportion to the cost.
umber—the world's greatest building material--and
1 hog wire have advanced much less than any other
material used for building.
muble value can be had without sacrificing quality
—and the lumber and hog wire of today are better
than ever before.
fit which time it is 'hoped to j
have 15,000,000 new names add-1

more .than 2000 Will the peo-
ple of this county fail to do
their part ? Certainly not! They
have never failed to do tihe right
tiling and undoubtedly will
not fail at this crucial time.

othing is more important than conservation at this
time, and all grain, stock and implements must be
properly sheltered.
(pportunity—such as you have NOW—may never
come again. After the war, lumber and hog wire
prices may be higher.
