talking about counterfeits when we
say "home-made" ration books —
they are as genuine as a dish of
beans or a platter of steak for which
we give up a handful of those pre-
cious "points" from Book No. 2.
Its like this: Victory Gardens go
a long way in season, on the dally
menu, but that’s only half the story.
During their prime there will be
some surplus over daily needs, and
that’s the making of the extra “ra-
tion book." Two pounds of snap
beans or about three pounds of to- J
matoes will fill a quart jar, three or
four pounds of lima beans will
shell out a quart of delicious "baby
limas," and so on. Every can or jar j
that is filled would cost a certain i
number of points if bought on the
market.
To put it another way, a bushel j
of tomatoes in the can is worth !
about 300 points, a bushel of snap
beans about 416 points, a bushel of
limas about 456 points. A bushel
each of these three items grown
and processed at home adds up to
1*212 points, more than twice the
quota for canned vegetables In Un-
cle Sam’s Ration Book.
This sort of home-made ration | 3
book saves the official coupons for : 1
buying a variety of processed fruits 1
and vegetables which cannot be pro-
duced at home, all of which belongs
to the “home front" where the Ci-
vilian Defense armies must do as
good a job as our boys in uniform
are doing on the world-compassing
battle fronts.

TIRES

When you get your certificate for a new tire,
SEE US!
We have ever^ size that is made for TRUCKS,
PICKUPS and CARS. (Several sizes in
PRE-WAR stock).
These tires are made by THE GATES RUBBER

GATES FAN BELTS)
Conductor—You see, you and your
mother are making your entire trip on
this Burlington Zephyr. Your trip
started at Ft. Worth a little while ago
and it will end in Denver tomorrow
morning. But this gentleman’s trip is
going to take him way beyond Denver.
He’s going from there to Billings—
then to Spokane and he’ll end up in
Portland.
Jean—A lot of other people on this
train have long tickets, too. Are they
all going where the man is?
Conductor—No, if you could talk to
all of them, you’d find they came to
Ft. Worth from many different places
—from East, South and West. And
you’d find, too, that they’re headed for
a lot of different places.
Jean—How do you know he’s going
all those places—did the man tell you?
Jean—Then how do they all happen
to be on this same Zephyr train?
Conductor—No, but this long ticket
did. You see, it’s really a lot of tickets
linked together just like a chain. Each
one of them belongs to a different rail-
road. Right now, I’m tearing off the
Burlington Lines ticket and it says
“from Ft. Worth to Denver.” After he
leaves Denver, he’ll ride on several dif-
ferent railroads and as he does, each
conductor will tear off his share of this
long ticket.
Mother—Don’t ask so many questions,
dear.
Conductor—I’m never too busy to
answer that question, young lady. It’s
because the Burlington is a natural
link between railroads of the North,
East, South and West. People just
naturally find it convenient to use the
Burlington. And, with our fleet of fine
passenger trains, headed by 14 diesel-
powered Zephyrs, they find it mighty
pleasant, too. At least that’s what they
tell us.

Burlington’s role as an essential link in border-to-border and coast-to-coast
travel, has become doubly significant during these dayt^when both war man
power and materiel must be transported efficiently and speedily. We of the
Burlington Lines—the Fort Worth and Denver City, Colorado and Southern,
and Chicago, Burlington & Quincy—more than £>,000 of us are proud to be
among the armies of railroaders who have teamed up to do the biggest
transportation job, both passenger and freight, in history.

timed are the efficient way to make every minute
count. They lessen tension, break monotony, and
increase output. Add refreshment to a rest-pause
and you promote worker-contentment.
Ice-cold Coca-Cola is refreshment that does
more than quench thirst. Drink it and i
feel and enjoy a refreshing after-sense.
Its clean, exciting taste always
pleases, never tires. Coca-Cola
offers something extra. All the
difference between something real-
ly refreshing and just something to drink.

Letters from plant managers from coast to coast
emphasize that the little moment for an ice-cold
Coca-Cola means a lot to workers in war plants.
Its a refreshing moment on the sunny side of
things«.. a way to turn to refreshment without
turning from work.
