REDUCE The HIGH COST
OF LIVING!

Every man, woman and child depends
upon the farm for their daily bread Then the
farm is the most vital unit in the making up of
the cost of our three meals day
How much every farmer raises and
how many additional acres of land are put under
cultivation from year to year lis the all impor-
tant question before us in solving the problem
of the high cost of living
Farm mortgages purchased by people
having surplus funds provide the farmer with
cash to fertilize the old and break up new land
to raise more feed, market more stock and
materially increase the output of the dairy thus
giving the people more and better food at lower
prices because of the increase of production
The FARM MORTGAGE furnishes the
capital to provide plenty, comfort and lower
cost of living by expanding the opportunities of
the farmer, and to those who thus aid by invest
ing their funds in these mortgages bring to
themselves not only splendid return in inter
est but have for security the soil of our country
and that is our country itself.
For select first mortgages on improv-
ed farms netting the investor per cent

Cows loo Good to Sell.

Many of the papers of the state have
taken up the slogan recently put forth
by the Wisconsin Advancement asso-
citation, to the effect that the cows that
people are coming thousands of miles
to buy in Wisconsin are too good to sell
at any price, and that rather than to
leave this matter to the natural order
OF commerce, communities should Or
ganize to keep these COWS within the
state. Every citizen of the state is in
terested in the maintenance of the high
est possible grade of dairy cows-some
may not realize this fact but it is true.
