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.
