'MICHIGAN DAYS'
D CAMPAIGN
OPENS LOCALLY
Aims T© Stimulate Production And Sale of Michi-,
gan-Grown Foodstuffs
When the Clare housewife visits "her
favorite retailer during ther-weejc starting Thursd&y, May 28 she will-- be
greeted hy a display of banners and
pennants announcing the "Michigan
Days tor Victory" campaign—a seven-
day drive to stimulate the production
and sale of Michigan-grown foodstuffs.
Tempting stove displays of Michigan-grown produce in wide variety will
themselves tell the story of why the
home state foods are to be preferred,
The food retailer himself "will supplement the displays with tips for the
interested. Not only food but variety
stores, drug stores and general merchants are participating in the educational program.
Designed to promote the common
Interest of the Michigan producer and
consumer -alike, the -'Michigan Days
for Victory" campaign will Ire con-
ducted in 179 Michigan communities
with the combined forces of agriculture and retailing joining to inform
.the consumer of the part that Michigan food is playing in the -war -effort.
A statement today from the Lansing
headquarters of the "Michigan Days"
^committee -points again to the vital industrial .contribution to the war effort
being made by Michigan factories by
'converting tiheir enormous facilities
into arsenals of supply for the tools of
victory. Michigan is -not only an .arsenal of democracy, the committee
declared, but an arsenal of agriculture
ithat .'is daily assuming -a anore vital
<role 'in -producing food for .people at
home as well as those on the *hattle
fronts of the world. Agriculture, *next
'to twar materials is the state's greatest
industry.
Proper nutrition will play an important part in the campaign. The committee called attention to the grave
situation which confronted military
authorities when the flrst contingents
-were called for army physical examinations. Government figures showed
that forty per cent of, the inen examined were found "fo have deficiencies;
occasioned in many instances by malnutrition and faulty diet. This situation
called for action.
The committee of retailers and agriculturists'responding to a popular appeal for all elements of the community
to play their respective parts in the
war efforts, set" out to educate the
consumer on the importance of a
properly balanced diet at home as well
as in the armed forces. Those in tiie
armed forces were assured of a balanced diet and therefore it seemed important tp stress its importance to the
consumer at home. The need of a bal
anced diet is emphasized in government reports which show its great

METAL CAMPAIGN
CONTINUED THRU
MONDAY, JUNE 1
Hope to Add Much More to
110 Tons Already in
Scrap Piles
The campaign to collect all the
scrap metal in Clare* and adjoining
couhties to be used in urgent munitions manufacturing will be extended*
through Monday, June 1st. The farmers and others with scrap material
responded splendidly last week, bringing in approximately 110 tons, but
there is a great deal more that should
be made available and consequently
the campaign was extended through
next Monday to enable them to get all
their metal in.
In Clare the weigh stations will be
at Johnston's and Marotzke's elevators
and the scrap pile in Ward's Par,k.
In Farwell the weigh stations will be
at Stanley's and Allen's and the scrap
pile near .Stanley's scales.
In Harrison the weigh station will
be at the Harrison Elevator and the
scrap pile north of the elevator.
Because of Saturday being Memorial
Day, at least the most of the weigh
stations will be closed on this day,
and those bringing in metal are urged
to bring it either today or Monday.
Much credit for the success of the
campaign is due to the committees and
the Farwell Lumber Company and
Geo. J. Lehr, local implement dealer,
who have contributed a great deal of
advertising space to the cause.
, It refluires only fifty pburids'of scrap
.metal ■'in the manufacture v of a
machine gun ."a»d there,is enough
scrap; metal laying around the farms of
the .community to make several1 tanks,
so if your pile is large br small it will
help a lot. Bring it in now and get
it tp w;Ork in the war effort.
