In any language, 'Ready Money" is a handy thing to have. None realize this need mor^ than a fanner : : : for in the business of fanning there are so many times that extra money is needed ... for bills that must be met : : i to take advantage of opportunities . . • "to turn a dollar" with profit; There are many times when a farmer needs "extra money"; 'VWthout a reserve fund he must either Sell something "for what he can get for it" or borrow, if he can get a loan; Victory Bonds provide a safe and convenient form in which to keep savings until needed. Victory Bonds earn double bank interest. When you have Victory Bonds you can get a loan from any bank at any time without any formality, and the interest the bonds earn pays a large part of the interest on the loan. Victory Bonds can be bought for cash which you have saved or bought on convenient defened pajrments with money as you get it.- Buy Victory Bonds to provide a reserve of working capital for your farm. Buy them, too, to help maintain your country's war effort; They pay interest these two ways. VICTORY BONDS Sih VICTORY lOAN 0p*n« April 23r<l.
