BRITAIN— CALLS TO CANADA 



THE FACTORY 



She must have Food 



for her Armies in the Field — for her Workers in the 

 Factory — in the Munition plant — in the Shipyard — 

 in the Mine. 



THERE'S DANGER IN SIGHT— BUT YOU CAN HELP 



Do You Know- 

 that the rapidly rising 

 price of food stuffs means 

 that the World's reserve 

 supply is getting small? 



Do You Know- 

 that a world-wide famine 

 can only be averted by 

 increasing this supply? 



Do You Know— 



that a "food famine" 

 would be a worse disaster 

 to the Empire and her 

 Allies than reverses in 

 the Field? 



You Can- 

 help thwart Germany's 

 desperate submarine 

 thrust on the high seas. 



You Can- 

 do this by helping to 

 make every bit of land 

 in Canada produce — the 

 very last pound of food 

 stuffs of which it is cap- 

 able. 



And Remember— 



that no man can say that 

 he has fully done his 

 part — who having land — 

 be it garden patch, or 

 farm, or ranch — fails to 

 make it produce food to 

 its utmost capacity.
