. , . He is America’s Great Productive Wo rker! T HE average fanner works from sun to sun and then some. Last year, fanners of the U. S. A. brought in a bumper crop and now they are being asked to produce even more, so as to feed our armies, our allies and the civilian populatioa. It won't be easy, but with any kind of hick with the weather, the fanners will produce more food in spite of labor ffr^ machinery shortages. Certainly fanners deserve and should receive die fullest cooperafioh in this gigantic task. In so far as electricity can help, we are making every effort to assist in keeping electrical farm machinery running and in developing every possible source of electrical farm equipment We salute die farmers dl America who meet die challenge of the elements, working through torrents of rain or scorching sun with die same faithful dispatch of duty—tending livestock, and crops with steadfast efficiency. We are proud to be partners with these "unheralded unsung" heroes in the attempt to do everything possible to add in the increasing c' food production for the nation. ATLANTIC CITY ELECTRIC COMPANY
