There’s an unpaid balance due...

THE minute never comes when any of us can say, “I've done enough.” Until the end of the war—and for years thereafter —there'll be an unpaid balance due the men who are winning Viciory for us today. But War Bonds do pay installments on that balance! Right now, the only protection we can give our boys is guns that fire quicker, planes that fly faster, and tanks that maneuver better than the enemy’s. Your War Bonds help to buy them. And when the war’s over, War Bonds will go on making “payments”—because they’ll help the country —including your farm —get back to peacetime prosperity. Let your returning boy find the farm backed with" a strong reserve in Bonds . . for new buildings, hew stock, new ma-

chinery, and extra living comforts for the home he’s been fighting for. Today, and every day you can, buy another Bond toward that unpaid balance!

5 REASONS FOR INCREASING YOUR WAR BOND PURCHASES /. The tempo of this war is hitting its highest point. Government expenditures for war are at the peak. MORE MONEY IS NEEDED... NOW! 2. In proportion to WHO HAS THE MOST MONEY, individuals are not buying their share of War Bonds. America must correct this situation. 3. War Bonds provide the farmer and rancher with the financial reserve he must have to survive the ordinary ups and downs of farming as a business. 4. Money will be needed urgently at a future date to replace and repair farm equipment, machinery, and buildings. War Bonds will provide it. 5. War Bonds are the safest investment in the world, return a good rate of interest, are easy and convenient to buy . . . from bank, post office, rural mail carrier or Production Credit Association.
