Zurich Herald, 1917-03-09, Page 8APlace Cir fou nt v r i a' a ction Just as surely as lack of food is strangling Germany day by day, so plenty of food is winning the victory for the allies. The 7Prench annies, for instance, were never better fed than now, for Prance cannot forget the awful lesson of 1870 -the failure of her food supply. To this she attributed the loss of_ that war. To feed the French soldiers around Verdun, more than 25,- 500,000 pounds of food a week were required. This gives a faint idea of the colossal task of feeding an army. Canada and Britain h ave a huge army of fighting heroes on the line ; every man MusT have plenty of food, in spite of a world shortage. Upon Canada's food production all principally rely. The Farmers of Ontario Urgently Need Help The Department of Agriculture appeals to men and boys to enlist in the farm help campaign. The Department appeals to men unfi.tfor military service, or whofind.itimpossible to enlist in the army. Do your "bit" by helping to increase production of foodstuffs. This is your hour of opportunity. The farmers of Ontario need the help of retired farmers, of men following no occupation (retired), of business men who can spare a portion of their time. We appeal to all who can so arrange their ordinary affairs to plan to help some farmer friend, particularly in seed time and harvest. Confer, with your county District Representative of the Department of Agriculture, or write, "Farm Help Cam- paign," care Department of Agriculture, Toronto. Ontario Department of Agriculture W. H.
