LIBERTY BONDS AND THE FARMER.

It has been repeatedly pointed out that in purchasing Liberty Loan Bonds the farmers of the United States were furnishing the means to their best customers to purchase the products of their farms. Much of the proceeds of Liberty Loan, both that used by the United States government and the amount loaned to the allies, is to be expended in purchasing food and supplies for their armies from the farmers of the county. There are other reasons however that make the Liberty Loan Bonds especially desirable investments for farmers.
 A safe investment is particularly suited to a farmer because he is in most instances at a distance from bond markets and not in position either to know of or immediately act upon information of matters af- fecting the value of bonds. The Liberty Loan Bonds are invincibly safe, backed as they are by the re- sources of the richest nation in the world and the faith and credit of a people who have always respected taeir obligations, and they are ot stable value and liable to little or 10 fluctuations in market value.
 The farmer is a busy man and often has neither the time nor the portunity to study the questions of finance and bond value. The Liberty Loan Bond is a bond about which there can be no question, he can rest assured always that he has made no error in judgment.
 The farmer often feels the need q ready cash before the harvest oi A,,5 crops. The Liberty Loan Bono Puts in his hand security or which he can always borrow mon eY and at rate as low or lower than he could borrow on any other  security and with less trouble.
 There is another aspect of this investment in Liberty Loan Bonds that will appeal to every true American. He is supporting the government, he is supporting our soldiers in France and he is do- Ing duty as citizen when he in- vests in Liberty Loan Bonds.
