SHOOT STRAIGHT
with your Family
IVIany years ago a man relied
on his "shootin’ iron” to protect his family.
Now he depends on life insurance.
Today’s threats are economic. Family
security depends on money instead of guns.
"Shoot straight” with your family by
making sure you’ve provided enough life
insurance. Call a friendly Life of Georgia
agent today. He’ll be glad to help you.

Tractor* in Marlboro
Assistant County Agent Epps
of Marlboro specialiizes in farm
machinery. He finds that there
are 900 tractors in the county.
Of these, 738 are two row ones
and 162 are one row tractors.
That’s mighty nearly enough
tractor power to farm the till
ed land of that county if used
to capacity. But they still have
about three thousand mules.
They must be keeping some
of them just for old-time sake.
