The Farmer
and Conscription
There la probably no oleos in the
community that will benefit more by

contend and in this time .of increased
demand for faun production it he more

is often obliged to forego the opper.

because of the lack of labor, Ooueerip-
tion,if properly enforced, should prove
a remedy for this need, ft may at

that the withdrawal of men fur tho
Army will enable the farmer to obtain
more help, tint a right appreoiation of
the facts will explain the seeming par
