AN APPEAL TO FARMERS.
Market Your Wheat NOW, Says How-
ard Heinz, U. S. Food Adminis-
trator for Pennsylvania, in
Patriotic Call.
Philadelphia, May 15.—A wheat
crisis is now at hand. England and
France are hungry and will need
every kernel of our wheat to keep off
starvation until the coming harvest
brings relief. The first duty, the most
patriotic duty, of every Pennsylvania
farmer should be to deliver all avail-
able wheat to market at once, before
May 20th, if possible.
Refusing or even delaying to sell
wheat at the present time is unpa-
triotic. Over 90 per cent. of the far-
mers of Pennsylvania have already
sold their wheat; the other 10 per
cent. should do so. Let every farmer
who has disposed of his wheat, make
of himself a “Minute Man” to see that
all other farmers do likewise. Hoard-
ing farmers and pro-German farmers
are becoming more and more uncom-
mon in Pennsylvania.
Some farmers have not sold their
wheat because of local physical diffi-
culties in getting the wheat to market,
such as misunderstanding as to price,
failure to secure cars, and the absence
of anyone actively interested in buy-
ing and shipping wheat. Arrange-
ments have now been put into effect
whereby local millers and warehouse-
men will buy all wheat offered. If
you have wheat and meet with any
difficulty in disposing of it, report the
situation to your county Food Admin-
istrator or to the county Farm Bu-
reau agent and the matter will have
prompt attention and relief.
Make it a matter of local pride to
see that there are no wheat slackers
in your section. Due allowance must
be made for wheat requirements for
seed and flour. Beyond this every
bushel should be moved to market at
once. If this can be accomplished, it
will be an achievement of which the
farmers of Pennsylvania may be
proud.
I appeal to you as loyal, patriotic
Pennsylvanians who have never fail-
ed the nation when it was in peril, to
market this wheat now so that it may
be said no commandeering was neces-
sary in this great State.
HOWARD HEINZ,
Federal Food Administrator
No coal or wood to carry.
Tas how much coal you burn in a range when you're not cooking. That's all
wasted—money thrown away. And Uncle Sam wants every housewife who can, to
save coal. Here is a good way for you to do your part. Use an oil cook stove instead
of the fuel-wasting coal range. Then the only time you use fuel is when you are
cooking. And that fuel, kerosene, is much more economical than coal.
