FARMERS ASKED
10 ME BIOS
Special Appeal oil Behalf of
Liberty Loan Issue is Sent
Out by Washington Representative
of National Grange.
Every farmer in America is expected
to support the Victory LibertyLoan,
says Thomas C. Atkeson, the
Washington representative of the National
Grange Patrons of Husbandry,
who has sent the following letter to
the officers of every farm grange in
the United States:
" 'Victory Liberty' is the slogan for
the new loan. The drive is to begin
* A4 # iv. i . _ ? S
April zjl. ior me saie 01 six uimuu
dollars in Victory Liberty Bonds.
These two words visualize all that is
best in American spirit. American
farmers must respond to this appeal.
"What the farmers of America did
in sacrifice and in accomplishment, in
food production and in bond buying
during the war is a part of the record
It is a war record of which any class
may be proud. It must be made good
now by meeting the obligations which
result from the outpouring of American
Strength which conquered the
enemies of Liberty and civilization.
Time to Get Ready.
"It is time to get into this Victory
Liberty Bond campaign. No appeal of
the war has gone unanswered to the
full limit when brought to the atten-!
r?f thp fsrmpr^ Men. monev. I
wheat, other food?no matter what
the obstacles or the difficulties?the
answer has been full and certain. The
answer must be the same in this coming
drive.
"Millions of soldiers must be brought
home; thousands of sick must be cared
for; thousands of wounded and mutilated
must be made ready for future
usefulness. We armed a nation and
mobilised its resources into a war machine
of such tremendous potential
power that our enemies surrendered
rather than face it, and thereby
months or years of fighting and thousands
of lives, were saved. Now we
must pay the obligations created by
this effort. Who can neglect to pay
his just part for that which prevented
so great a sacrifice of life and blood.
World Warts Products.
"There lies just outside the doors of
the American farmer a hungry world, a
world which needs all our products.
American farming rests on the safe
basis of need and service. The investment
of the hard earned dollars of
American farmers in Victory Liberty
Bonds is a safe investment with a
certainty of fair return, and the
money will come back into circulation
mafclag more business, increasing the
j market and the demand for farm pro.
ducts, and increasing prosperity Buying
Victory Liberty Bonds will
make farmers Victory-Liberty-Prosperit^-men.
Do your part to put the Vioi
torv Liberty Loan over the top.
"Make your investment in Victory
Liberty Bonds the measure of your
confidence in American institutions
and that democracy for which your
sobs offered the supreme sacrifice; a
symbol of your determination that the
war shall not have been fought in
vain; an offering of thanksgiving for
peace."

SI UP IK VALUE
History of All Loans for a Century
Shows That Advance
Has Always Come with
Peace.
Will history repeat itself? That
question is in the minds of many bond
buyers these days. Records show that
the prices of bonds were way down
during war times of the past but soon
after peace was declared advanced
rapidly.
During Napoleonic wars prices of
English 3 per cent, consols ranged
from 67%. the high and 54%, the low,
in 1814 to 96% the high and 84% the
I low, in 1824. During the same period
French 5 per cent, rentes rose from
80. the high, in 1814 to 104.8 in 1824.
They also went as low as 45 in 1814.
French 5 per cent, rentes dunnf tne
Franco-Prussian war ranged in price
from 75.1 to 87 3 and 50.8 to 81.1.
United States bonds during the ConI
federate war sold for 95%, the high,
and 83, the low, in 1861, but from then
on they "had practically a steady rise
until 1873. at which time the high was
123% and the low 111%. The tenforty-year
bonds, put out in 1864 advanced
from 103% to 116% in ten
years.
Four series of Liberty Bonds have
been issued and the fifth?to be
known as the Victory Liberty Loan?
will soon be offered. These securities
have behind them the mightiest protection
ever devised?the resources
and the pledge and the faith of one
of the great nations of the world.
The investment value of the bonds
can merer decrease, for the interest
will always be paid and the bonds
will be redeemed at full face value
at maturity:

LETHE Si
EE )0i BUKEB:
Offers Far Better Opportuni-J
ties Than Those Enjoyed by;
Thrifty People in France
Who Claim Leadership.
France has been called the thriftiest
nation in the world.It claims to be. If
we do not watch out she will prove
it conclusively. America is the richest
country on earth. Our per capita
savings increased approximately 45
per cent in the last four years?the
period of the war. Last year, for instance,
the per capita savings in the
South alone was $26.73. That sounds
like we have the money, and we certainly
have the will to make more.
Uncle Sam is out to show you how.
He wants to be your savings banker.
He offers you not only 4 per cent, interest,
compounded quarterly, but the
government as security. There could
not- be a better incentive for thrift!
than that. The French people have!
far less, yet they save more. They
have no way to tfut their savings into
small government securities, the popular
denomination being that of five
hundred francs, or $100.
It would not be very convenient to j
save if we had to put our pennies into '
an old stocking until we had accumu- j
lated $100 as the French do ,would it?
And the stocking doesn't pay any interest.
So let Uncle Sam take care
of your pennies?twenty-five of them
buy a Thrift Stamp and sixteen Thrift
Stamps converted into a War Savings
Stamp begin earning compound interest
for you immediately. Are we going
to let the French beat us in thrift? j
The man who gossips about others
will gossip about you.
