These manufacturers—management and work- ers alike—are thus fighting shoulder to shoulder with our armed forces. But what about the farmers? They are doing a work of equal impor- •tance. They too are marching to battle, by toiling early and late to per- :suade nature to increase the food supply on which the issues of the fight so greatly depend. The farmer marches side by side with the soldier and his armourer. Farmers who are doing their bit to help Canada's all-out war effort may :find it necessary •to borrow money at the Bank. You should not hesitate to discuss your requirements with our nearest branch manager. Your business will be regarded as strictly confidential.
