FOR VICTORY NOW - - -FOR SECURITY LATER YOUR NATIONAL FARM LOAN ASSOCIATION OFFICE, AT PROVO, UTAH, URGES ALL FARMERS IN UTAH COUNTY TO INVEST TO THE LIMIT IN SERIES E BONDS. Do You Know Facts On Series E. Bonds Many farmers still feel that money in a savings account is safer than money In Series E War Bonds. That is not true, for example, $37.50 invested in Series E Bonds Is exactly as safe as the $50.00 bill you hold In your hand. Just exactly as safe. Both are backed by the full faith and credit of your Government that Is backed by you and one hundred and thirty-five million other Americans. Many farmers still feel that If they put their money In a savings sav-ings account they can get it out quicker In an emergency than If It were Invested In a Series E Bond. That Is not quite true. Of course, the farmer can withdraw with-draw all the money In his savings sav-ings account at once. But he can get back all the money he has put Into Series E Bonds in about three days. How often does he need the money quicker than that? Many farmers do not realize that the Interest paid on Series E Bonds (almost 35) Is higher than the Interest paid on savings sav-ings deposits. But it is higher considerably higher. Where else, without risk, can the farmer get J $4.00 back for every $3.00 invest ed for a ten-year period Many farmers do not realize that Series E. Bonds are personally person-ally held. That they cannot be transferred. That they cannot be pledged as security or collateral. collat-eral. If destroyed or lost they can be reissued. The Government itself cannot freeze the Series E Bonds which farmers hold. The Government is bound by Its own regulations. 1 There can be no repetition oi the denlorable situation of the last War when Liberty Bonds' were bought and sold on thel open market and many farmers j lost their hard-earned money.

More than troops and ships and camps are marked With the cloth of our sacred vow. You may not see it wave as you work But the flag Is over the plow. There's another army must march today, As strong as the one afield, Millions of men must face the earth And make the land to yield; An unfed army of fighting men Is no force to face the Huns, To free the world of this hellish horde Takes more than planes and guns. If plows, perhaps, were put in line, If the bugle call would sound, If bands might play, and colors rise In services profound; If tractor on tractor could move away To music that quickens feet There might be patriotism then In corn and hay and wheat. But there are no drums, no bands that play, No buddies there in line, He works alone in that field of his As I work alone in mine; It Is very humble, the work we do, But we must remember somehow, As much as it files at the battle front, The flag Is over our plow! Barton Rees Pogue Co. Agent Explains Sulfur Methods Of Drying Fruits Pointing out that the government govern-ment has promised to take the entire commercial pack of dried fruit, Rhea Hurst county home demonstration agent suggests that Utah county housewives dry their own supply of peaches, pears and apples using the sulfur sul-fur method. The advantages of the sulfur method of drying according to Miss Hurst are as follows: 1. Fixes the food value, flavor and color. 2. Improves the keeping quality qual-ity and eating quality of the fruit. 3. Prevents oxidation or browning of the fruit. To dry fruit by the sulfur method, the sulfur should be burned in a gas-tight compartment compart-ment a cardboard box large enough to cover the wooden trays of fruit will do the trick. Miss Hurst points out that the trays must be wooden, since sulfur sul-fur reacts on metal. Sulfur candles or a good grade of powdered powd-ered sulfur suitable for burning may be obtained at any drug store. The fruit should be sulfured until each piece has a clear water-soaked appearance. The sulfuring time for the three fruits Is as follows: apples, one-half one-half hour; pears, six to ten hours; and peaches four to six hours. According to the county agent there is no danger of getting get-ting too much sulfur. The sulfuring process should be finished by noon If possible, and the fruit placed In bright sunshine for the rest of the day. Miss Hurst further explains that the cups left when the stones are removed fill with Juice during the sulfuring process, and that care should be taken not to spill this liquid while it is being dried in the fruit. Further information on the sulfuring process, as well as the sun and home dehydrator method meth-od of drying "' fruits and vegetables, vege-tables, may- be obtained by asking ask-ing your local county agent' for the sheet, "Home Drying of Fruits and Vegetables."
