HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Advocate, 1918-9-19, Page 4-uY ,w,.iSv when he said— "Either the civilian popu- lation must go short of 'many things to which it in trees of peace or our armies roust go short of other things indispensable to them." NOW the only way we cap possibly live up to that obligation is by going with- out in order that our .soldiers may have. For the money we waste is not money at all—it is equipment, clothing, shot and shell that are ur- gently needed in France. By denying ourselves, there- fore, we enable Canada to procure to the fullest extent the materials and labor which she and our Allies need. for the successful prosecution of the war. What happens when we fail to save? - A pull on labor by the Govern- ment in one direction and a pull on labor by the people in the opposite direction. is accustomed munitions and Hundreds ' of millions of dollars are of no use to the country if goods and services can be secured only to the extent of eighty millions of dollars. So we must do every thing in our power to release both goods and labor for the purposes for which Canada needs them. WHETHER it be food, coal, wool, steel, leather, labor or transportation, the result in all cases is the same. Whoever competes with the nation by freely satisfying his own desires, selfishly appro- priates to his own use that which is so urgently required for our fighting men in France. For the sake of your country and the boys "over there," spend cautiously. Think of what Lord Kitchener has said, and ask yourself first, "Is this something I really need or can I , do without it?"

FALL FAIRS PAY WELL Prepare Now to Harvest and Store Root Crops. Best Mixtures and Methods' of Making Bread With Floor of Various Cereal Gr'airrs.. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) 0 the general farmer who. grows good grain for seed, to the specialist in garden and truck crops, and par- ticularly to the live stock man the Fall Fair offers an opportunity. ft pays to advertise and the Fair is the place where the people see the goods produced, and seeing is believing. Moreover, the papers report the win- nings and through these the exhibi- tor gets a large amount of advertis- ing free which would otherwise 'cost. him a considerable amount of money. Winning in close competitions under a competent judge adds dollars to the value of stock shown and in- creases the market price of any com- modity as well as giving the exhibi- tor a standing not only in his own community but over a section of country corresponding to the size and influence of -the show at which prizes are won. The Fair is a good place to make sales. Prospective buyers see the good exhibits made and en- quire about the breeding stock at home. Stockmenshow at Fairs large- ly to make sales rather than to Win prizes although the latter.is a factor in the sales and they are not dis- appointed as evidenced by the grow- ing interest in the Fall Fair. Show- ing at the Fair, coupled with a judi- cious newspaper advertising policy, which should never be neglected, is good business. The two go 'together. and work hand in hand.
