to the sheriff. Deputy Sheriff Don

Attention
Farmers!

After passing through
the hail season without
damage to your growing
grain, you can not afford
to take any chances now
from loss by fire. You
can insure your grain in
the field, shock, stack OF
bin and the 80 OF go days
protection that you will
require will cost but lit

company take the risk.
