PUBLIC NOTICES WAR ECONOMY! GUMBOOTS With so many old and new friends and customers in the farming community, the Para Rubber Company, Limited, feels it a responsibility to advise all farmers that in their own interests, they must look after their gumboots this year and make them last much longer than usual. Owing to the war situation in the rubber producing countries of Malaya and the East Indies, the overseas factories supplying GUMBOOTS are unable to continue exporting to New Zealand. If conditions permit, and rubber supplies are available, it Is hoped that gumboots w T ill later be manufactured in New Zealand. For this winter, however, farmers must try to lengthen the life of their GUMBOOTS—and so help themselves over an unavoidable scarcity. WHAT TO DO: Store your gumboots in a dark, cool place. Remove immediately any oil or grease which may get on them. Do not dry them in front of a fire, radiator or in the sunshine. Have all worn or torn parts on the legs or over the feet patched without delay. Have the soles and heels resoled before worn too far. Wear your gumbooits only when necessary. All Para Rubber Company stores throughout New Zealand have skilled machines and men who daily repair dozens of pairs of gumboots. This message is inserted in the interests of the farmers, rather than as an advertisement for the Para Rubber Repair Service. LOOK AFTER YOUR GUMBOOTS !
