Bond en ttertained a group of friends at a social evening recently, me Farmers Buy Bonds (EDITOR'S NOTE: In the fol lowing article, Mark T. Buchanan, acting chairman, division of farm management and agricultural eco nomics, Washington State college, tells why a farmer should buy and keep war bonds now known more appropriately as "invasion bonds.") By MARK T. BUCHANAN During the early stages of an inflationary period a farmer should talk like a pessimist and act like an optimist. He should extend himself by means of credit I and take advantage f the rising 1 price situation. During the latter part of an in flationary period he should talk I like an optimist and act like pessimist. He should liquidate his I debt and put as many inflation ary dollars as possible into a fixed I Investment. No fixed investment! is more satisfactory for this pur-1 pose than war bonds of the United I States. In addition to laying aside present easily obtained money to use- when its purchasing power has increased, there are several I other reasons why farmers should I buy and keep war bonds. Reserve for Needed Replace ments and Improvements. Every farmer knows that his machinery and equipment gradually wear out and become obsolete. During this time when new machinery and equipment is difficult to ob tain, he should lay aside funds with which to replace this equip ment when it becomes more read ily available following the war. Prevent Inflation. This war is costing twice as much per year as the total cost of World War I. To the extent that the government can borrow this required money from individuals out of savings or funds that otherwise would be available for living, inflation will be averted. That is why the government is much more inter ested m selling bonds to individ uals than in selling them to banks. Frotection. This country and the war effort have been blessed with six successive years of phe nomenal crop yields and agricul tural production. If a penny is tossed six times and comes up heads every time, the probability of the seventh toss is still 50-50, heads and tails. Although the succession of good crop years does not necessarily portend crop fail ure to come, nevertheless crop failure is always something that should be considered possible. Money invested in war bonds will provide protection for living expenses and capital during the difficult years. Safe Investment. As a rule the paying off of the "mortgage" is a farmer's best investment. Dur ing the war years, however, many farmers have accomplished this, and are now seeking a safe in vestment for extra cash. No in vestment is safer than the bonds of our government. Not only is I this investment a safe one, but the returns are attractive. Series E bonds held for 10 years return interest of 2.9 per cent, compound ed annually in 10 years $4.00 for each $3.00 put in. Patriotic Motive. Not to be for gotten is the fact that this war must be won. Farmers have more sons and daughters in the service per family than, any other group of our population. We must pro vide the men in the invasion with the planes, tanks, guns, ships, and other materials necessary to speed tneir return home. i . l i : 1 7:30 p.m.-The Boy Scouts wiUlfjTf w.l?.
