We all want things noAr . . . things we have not been able to get for the past several years. Some of these things are necessities . . . some are things that will contribute to our comforts and pleasures. Eventually, these things will be more plentiful. By waiting a little longer we will help to keep prices of things we need at lower levels and We will buy at better advantage when we do buy. Meantime we can invest our savings in the safest securities obtainable Victory Bonds. More Victory Bonds will be oflfered this Fall. They pay 3% interest . . . double bank interest . . . and they are "liquid capital". If we need cash in an emergency any bank will buy Victory Bonds at any time. And any bank will loan money on Victory Bonds. The Ninth Victory Loan will be our last opportunity to buy Victory Bonds for a whole year, so buy double this time â€" the same rate of savings as in previous loans will pay for twice as many bonds over the 12 month period. FARMERS CAN BUY VICTORY BONDS ON CONVENIENT DEFERRED PAYMENTS THROUGH ANY BANK . . . just sign a short form letter which Viaory Loan Salesmeo carry (banks have copies) ordering the bank to buy Victory Bonds for you.
