TO FARMIRS H. H. Hannam is President and Managing Director of the Canadian Federation of Agri- culture. In a message addressed to farmers, Mr. Hannam says: "The farmer who is wise will look ahead and plan carefully. "And in these years when prices and retiurns are more satisfactory than they have been, when labor is scarce, when farm machinery is restricted, when building materials are not readily available, a good course to follow would be that of putting a substantial share of the year's earnings into sound securities such as Victory Bonds. These reserves will not only provide a measure of insurance against dif- ficulties in less favorable years, but at such time when supplies are favorable and costs will probably be lower, their purchasing power will be greater and return from them correspond- ingly increased. • â- â€¢Â« "We believe this is good planning from the farmer's standpoint. At the same time, it is the very best of planning from die standpoint of the Nation." FARMERS CAN BUY VICTORY BONDS on convenient deferred payments THROUGH ANY BANK ... just sign a short form letter which Victory Loan Salesmen carry (banks hav» copies) ordering the bank to buy Victory Bonds for you. Pay 5% when ordering and the balance at any time during the next 12 months. The interest the bonds earn pays the interest on the bank loan. «^ RY BONDS .k â- ^ m â- * tNATIONAL WAR FINANCE COMMITTEE 4^
