The Government The government has authorized the sale of approximately twenty billion dollars of various obligations to meet its requirements until June, 1918. Several billions of this is in Liberty Bonds. The first issue of two billions vtas immediately taken, the second issue was oversubscribed and the third one should now be purchased as willingly and quickly. The government asks for money only as it is needed and if it is at once forthcoming it means that we are paying for the war as we go along. Every American should be in action—some must face the fire —those at ' home must furnish the necessities- food, money, ammunition, labor and all that is required to wage this war. ft There is urgent need of the material cooperation of every American in the purchasing of Liberty Bonds which give the govern ment the financin g power necessary —and you 4 14 per cent, for your patriotism. Your subscription should be handed in at once. Farmers & Traders Bank Os Nappanec Capital SBO,OOO ' r*

Happy Farmer Tractors get the greatest amount of work done—they stay on the job—they work for the minimum cost. In fact they seem to “like the work”. These facts explain why they are making money on hundreds of farms today. This lowpriced kerosene burning tractor is ideal for the small farm. It will work efficiently where many other tractors will not pay. Two good models—A and B —two and three plow types. The “Happy Farmer” plows best —with Oliver Plows Hitch the “Happy Farmer” to an Oliver plow and you’ll be surprised at the short time it will take to do your plowing. And no matter how particular you may be you will be pleased with every furrow. Every Oliver feature is an advantage. The simple control enables the operator to raise or lower the plow by pulling the trip rope. The combined rolling Coulters and Jointers bury all trash at the bottom of the furrow. The stop device insures an even depth furrow. You can increase YOUR profits—this year—with a “Happy Farmer’’-01iver outfit. Better see us quickly. Rapp Bros.
