TO THE AMERICAH FARMER. EVERYWHERE, USA
NEVER IU THE HISTORY OP OUR NATION HAS THE AMERICAN PARMER HAD
THOPPORTUNITY TO REPEAT WHAT THE "EMBATTLED FARMERS OP 1775
DID WHEN THEY "FIRED THE""SH0T HEARD 'ROUND THE WORLD" WHICH
STARTED THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR,
TODAY THE "CALL" IS NOT "TO ARMS" BUT, "TO BONDS" - A CALL FOR
YOU TO .BUY fHENEW LIBERTY BONDS" - TO LOAN TO YOUR GOVERNMENT
MONEY WITH WHICHfOFROTfic"T YOUR LIFE - YOUR HOME - YOUR HONOR
AND LIBERTY FOR WHICH YOU WILL BE PAID IN RETURN 4 INTEREST ON
YOUR INVESTMENT NO TRUE AMERICAN FARMER WILL FAIL TO RESPOND TO
THIS CALL AND THEREBY AGAIN SHOW TO THE WORLD THAT THE AMERICAN

Will you be a U. S. backer, or
Will you be a U. S. slacker?
To win this war it requires a vast amount
of money, and if we don't win it, your home, your farm,
your life, your riphta, your liberty become subject to
ruthless destruction.
To raise this money, your Government calls
upon you for a loan. It does not ask you to give money
simply to lend it and in return gives you a U. S.
Government Bond, the best security on earth, on which
you draw Interest, greater than bank interest, free
, from tr except inheritance and income surtax.
What Will Be Your Reply?
Here is an opportunity to show your pat-,
riotism and at the same time get on the Government's
pay-rolL
Here is an opportunity for you to "do your
bit" and show to the world that the American farmers
are still the "backbone" of their country.
Here is an opportunity to say to your
nation's enemies, in language none can fail to under
stand, that "money talks" that America knows no
defeat and that we intend to wipe militarism and
despotism off the face of the earth and finally insure a
lasting peace.
What WM Be Your Reply?
Do you know that the total value of the 1917
crops is estimated by Government officials at $17,000,
000,000 nearly six times the amount of "The Second
Liberty Loan of 1917"?
Do you know that the increase in the value
of the 1917 crops over 1916 is $2,000,000,000 almost
equalling this Second Liberty Bond issue?
Don't you think then, that the American
farmers ought to "respond" liberally to their Govern
ment's call, especially when they get 4$ interest on
their investment? ,
What Wfll Be Your Reply?
You owe it to your country to "reply" with
a subscription for as many bonds as you have money
tor-spare.
You owe it to your country to "buy Liberty
Bonds" as evidence of your patriotism.
You expect your country to "protect" your
life, your home and your liberty.
Your country expects you to do your share
toward that end by helping to maintain its credit by
lending it your money in this critical hour.
What Will Be Your Reply?
The New Liberty Bonds will be issued in
denominations of $50 and up. The total amount is
$3,000,000,000 or more. ,
The interest rate is 4 paid semi-annually
on Nov. 15th and May 15th. They can be paid for in
