Mr. Stevenson, in his race for
congress, advocates a rural credit
system. In the south, threefourths
of the people are farm1
ers. The great banking law put
through by this administration .
made some provision for farmers
but none for the man who
has to buy his land and needs
long credit on it. Six months is
the longest credit he can get un!
der that law. There should have
; been a land credit system emI
braced in it, whereby a man
could get a long credit and low
rate of interest on real estate
and enable him to buy, or redeem,
a home. Why was it not
passed with the balance of the
1 bill. ?Advertisement.

Be Warned.
Mr. A. B. Sheppard, a loom ;
fixer in the Millfort Mill says:
"For 17 years I carried insur-1
ance in one of the fraternal or- I
ders at a fairly low rate and.
then, when I was 41 years old
my rate was more than doubled
without warning. I refused to
pay the advanced premium and
took a policy in the Union CenI
tral Life, but had to pay a high
premium on account of my age.
I now find that if 1 had taken my
present policy instead of the fraternal
policy, I would never have
to pay another cent and my life
would be insured until I die without
further payments by me.
Besides each year I would now be
getting a dividend check from
the Union Central each year as
long as I live. And I find that
the cost of the same in the long
run would have been less than
my contract with the fraternal
society."
For nearly fifty years the
Union Central has furnished life
insurance at the lowest net cost.
Are you wise in delaying your
application?
