&MVO, If Necessary,
To Raise More rood
Farmers raising war foods, supplying all . kinds of
products for export to the fighting fronts, may find it
necessary to borrow at the Bank to cover their extra
requirements.
It is the policy of the Bank of Montreal, at all of its
branches, to co-operate at all times with farmers, and
especially at the present time when their work is so
essential to the war effort.
Do not hesitate to talk in confidence with our nearest
branch manager regarding your need for credit.

In The Letter Box
The following letter is one re-

pupils of Grade , 7, Clinton Public
School, thanking them for a Ditty
Bag.
H. M. C. S. Glenora,
F. M. O. St. John's, Nfld.
Dear Miss Jamieson and Pupils of
Grade 7.
Christmas has conte and gone
bringing a New Year, and I sincerely
hope that you and the children had
as much fun as I did,
Yours being the first Ditty Bag I
have received since being in the
Navy, it was quite a surprise and
naturally something to remind me
of home. The lovely way everything
was packed and wrapped gave me no
end of pleasure trying to guess what
was in each package and every one
was useful and badly 'needed. We
have a bad habit of waiting until
to -morrow to buy those little things.
I am afraid this is all for now and
as it is getting late must finish a
bowl of nice chicken • noodle soup,
which hits the spot.
Many thanks again and may you
all have a Happy New Year.
Sincerely, 1

Clinton Farmer Tells Agric-
ulture Minister of Meat
Trials
Agriculture Minister Kennedy told
in an interview in Toronto about a
farmer from Clinton, Ontario, who
couldn't sell 35 of the 55 head of
cattle he had brought to Toronto and
also couldn't buy a steak in a rest-
aurant because it was meatless Tues-
day.
"So he came . to see me," said the
minister. "I told him about the
problems of marketing and the
problems of shipping space. He
thanked me kind of bashfully' and
went away. But it's, certainly a
strange Commentary on our trines.
There was no market for his cat-
tle and yet he couldn't get a meat
meal."
