About this poster:
This vintage poster urges farmers in Nebraska to plant winter wheat to support the war effort during World War I. The poster emphasizes the importance of Nebraska's contribution to the nation's food supply, declaring, "To Feed the Nation is to Fight its Battles." The poster includes text encouraging farmers to organize, locate good seed wheat, and strive for a big yield.
The poster highlights the scarcity of breadstuffs and the critical role that every bushel of wheat raised plays in the cause of civilization. It also advises farmers on planting techniques, such as using a drill to ensure better germination and economize on seed. Additionally, it suggests that corn fodder makes good feed and encourages the planting of wheat in standing corn, a successful practice in many parts of Nebraska.
The poster's message reflects the patriotic sentiment of the time, reminding farmers that they are serving as soldiers in the field by tilling the soil. The poster conveys a sense of urgency and responsibility, emphasizing that the need is great and the time to act is now.
