So often, we are told "they're not making it any, more". Factories are making guns instead of ploughs, tanks instead of tractors, planes and shells instead of stoves and beds. We'll have to replace so many things when the War ends. . things we can't bur now. MONEY INVESTED IN VICTORY BONDS will provide the cash to buy them tki443,40 —with Cash . . in one lump sum, with money we have saved. There is no safer investment. . . no better way to protect our, savings. Or—we can buy bonds and pay for them through our banks in monthly instalments. As the instalments come due the bank will charge them to our accounts. —with Prodace Farm folk can pay for Victory Bonds in another, convenient way—by using the "PRODUCE FOR VICTORY" TICKET. B3r simply signing a "Victory Ticket" you can authorize those who buy produce from you to send all or part of the proceeds to the War Finance Committee to buy Victory Bonds for you. (Ask your local War Finance worker for details.) WHAT A , VICTORY BOND IS Look at a dollar bill. A-dollar bill is like a bond. It's a promise to pay to the man who has it. You get bills when you sell things and pv them out when you buy things. A Victory Bond is "a bill" intended to be saved. When you keep a $100.00 Victory Bond for a year you receive an additional $3.00. (3% interest). Buy all the .Victory Bonds you can— lend money to Canada to help to in the war. Save your bonds to have money for things you'll need when the war ends.

URGES ALL TO BUY VICTORY BONDS Clinton, October 20th, 1942, Canada's, Third Victory Loan was introduced 00 October 19th. Six months ago, the people of Huron oversubscribed their objective by $291,250. In the Viebt Victory Loao, out people gave leadetship to the Dominion by raising their full quota ht six and a half days, guch is the record of Huron County, a proud achievement and one that I know will be maintained in the days immediate- ly ahead. In making an appeal to support the Victory Loan, Campaign, I feel that I MO endorsing the men of Dieppe, supporting our ..grand young men of the Air Force,- the Navy, aid all branches of His Majes- ty's Forces; chousands of whom have gone from the County of Hilton to. take their place in Britain's Guard. of Honour. I pay .tribute to the Huron County National War Finance Coin- mittee for the time .and effort they have devoted tcwaeds building up a. capable and efficient organization, appeal to the citizens .of Huron to give their full support to Canada's Third Victory Loan. L. E. Cardiff, NI, P. , Huron North. Federation Head Asks Farrngrs To Subscribe To The Victory Loan October 17th, 1942 Dear Editor: Regarding the Victory Loan, we' have something to ,say to our fellow farmers througho4at Huron County. This is our War and our Government is finding it necessary to raise unpre- cedented sums of money to prosecute it as we demand, They have two sources of revenue, taxation and bor- rowing from Canadian citizens. Vic- tory positively necessitates voluntary sacrifice, both of life and the giving up of things we want. Should we fail to win the war, your farms, your homes; your investments and your sayings as well as the products . of your labours will be Hitler's_ Your sacrifice now will mean freedom later and your purchase 'of Victory ,Bonds now will mean money to use when the war is won. Some imagine that the smaller Bonds are unimportant but it is to secure these that we have Victory Loan drives. Do not lea,ye it all to the big fellow; there are not enough of them; this time every, person's help is needed. Slichild you fail to lend to the fullest extent of your ability, you have failed to do your part for Vic- tory; you have failed to support the 'armed forces; you have failed to do what yott alone-can do to protect your home, your family and. your invest- ment in Canada. Lend for Victory; Buy a Bond, be it small or large and let yobr ability and conscience be your guide. The. Huron County Federation of Agriculture. A. W. Morgan, President.
