Now Is Time to ‘Harvest*
Old Scrap Metal .. ■' ,; ' >■ - “i*V 4 ' ~V ~S:'x
"Harvest your iron and steel ■crap right sway. Tom. it into cash. It is needed for the making of steel for the defense program.”
That's the appeal being made now to farmers by the Committee On Iron and Steel Scrap, American Iron and Steel Institute. Inventories of scrap are critically low at the' mills and foundation because of their record high pro* duction. Bigger stockpiles are needed if steel output is to be maintained and increased. i
“How much scrap is there on your farm?” asks the Committee. ^Whatever the amount, it is badly needed. And there's money in it for you, if you harvest it now. At the first opportunity, get that fcrap together. Take it to town and sell it e your scrap dealer. Or call him to your farm. If that cannot be worked out, ask the local farm agent to help make an arrangement so that the scrap can be moved.1' , A long step in the goal toward increasing the flew of scrap would be assured if each farmer sold only a few pounds of iron and steel scrap for each acre of farm f land he operates. Worn-out parts of tractors, cultivators, or other implements and discarded tools ' fire among the iteflu needed. .' ■ __-44:4 a
