AMERICAN farmer PATRIOTIC
PROVIDES SUPPLIES and MONEY

Few will question the patriotism of
the American farmer.
If there is any man in whom the love
# home, the love of liberty, and the
owe of independence Is thoroughly
grounded, it is the American farmer.
Naturally, therefore, he Is the one
nan more than any other, who will
7tand firmly behind his Government
n making the world safe for Democ-
facy.
The farmer is doing, and will con-
inue to do, all in his power in the
natter of the production Of foods to
Import our people at home, our boys
the trenches and our allies.
But it Is as necessary to finance lib
rty as IL Is to fight for II, or to feed
rose who fight.
Because all OF this 10 true and be-
luse he can afford II on account of

LIBERTY BONDS OFFER SMALL
e INVESTOR DISTINCT ADVANTAGE.

The second issue of Liberty Bonds
now being offered to the public is of
exceptional interest to the small inves-
tor for the reason that they bear four
per cent interest and are exempt from
all state, county, city, income, excess
profit tor war profit taxes that may now
be in force or that may be levied later.
This is only true where the amount of
bonds held by an individual or cor
poration is not in excess OF 100000.
Where the value of bonds held is in
excess Of that amount, they are not
exempt from income, excess profit or
war profit taxes.
This is one time where the small
investor gets the best Of it, and this
feature is expected to make the bonds
very popular with those who have a
comparatively small amount of money
to invest.
AS matter of fact, four per cent
investment under existing conditions
that is free from tax is more attrac-
tive than mortgages or other high
class investments bearing a much
higher rate of interest. The Govern
ment very properly considers that any
one who is able to buy large numbers
Of bonds is. able to pay higher tax
than is the person who can only invest
small amount.
South Should Buy Heavily
The South is more prosperous than
at any time in recent years. Every
thing that is raised here can be sold
readily at a price that few years
ago would have been considered un-
reasonable. No section of the country
has been more liberal in its contribu-
ton of men, but this contribution OF
flesh and blood will be wasted unless
we are equally liberal with our money.
When the first Liberty Bond issue
was sold, the South's subscription was
not what it should have been. This
was largely because Of the fact that
Southern people have never been in
the habit of buying bonds Of any kind
to the extent that prevails in the
North and East. We are now more
familiar with securities OF this kind,
and it is expected that our record on
this second issue will be very much
better.

1t should not be necessary to con.
Vince any man of the need of the Gov.
eminent for his aid.
Charity is not asked for, but help;
and help of kind that knows no
selfishness.
If money 10 loaned to the Govern
ment at fair rate Of Interest and
repaid at the specified time full value
has been returned.
The man lending the money always
has something on which he can real.
ize full value at any time he may need
money.
The man who cannot on account Of
age, infirmlties, dependents, or any
other reason enter active service can
send his dollars to fight for him, real
izing every day that he has done his
best and that full credit will be given
him.

LIBERTY BONDS THE MOST
CONSERVATIVE INVESTMENT

Liberty Loan bonds are the safest
investments in the world, and the most
conservative bond buyers In the coun-
try will .the heaviest purchasers Of
every loan fioated.' says J. A. McCord,
governor of the Sixth Federal Reserve
Bank. He added, however, that these
specialists would not have the field to
themselves In the present war loan, az
they did to a large extent in the frst
ISSUE
The great majority Of the American
people were at that time unacquainted
with bonds and securities, according to
Mr.. McCord, and needed to be educat-
ed. That they have received this edu-
cation, he said, was evidenced BY the
interest shown by our laboring claAa
in the Second Liberty Loan.

LIBERTY BONDS will
HELP TO SOLVE THE
cHRIsTMAS ClFr PROBLEM

THE sale of the second Liberty Loan
bond issue at this time has been hailed
In many quarters as being particularly
timely. This applies especially to peo-
pie who are anxious to make Christmas
gifts Of unusual value, because they
will be able, by making small payments
from time to time, to acquire Liberty
bonds before the arrival Of the holiday
season.
