worth of War Savings and Thrift
Stamps have been sold by the govern
ment In the Twelfth Federal Reserve
District since Uncle Sam opened his
thrift campaign In 191 S to help finance
the ar. "In other words," said Rob
ert E. Smith, director of the War Loan
Organiiat.on In the Twelfth District
"the people of California, Oregon.
Washington. Idaho, Nevada, Utah and
part of Arizona have added that much
to the working capital of the nation
and the West out of their savings, not
to mention the tremendous sum they
have saved by purchasing Liberty
Bonds."
Of course many persom who bought
Thrift and War Savings Stamps have
cashed In their securities with amaz
ing shortsightedness, but the wiser
purchasers are holding their stamps
until they maintain their full matur,ty
value. "Those persons who have
cashed In their War Stamps or their
Liberty Bonds and have spent the
money have lost twice the amount they
saved because, no matter what they
bought, they paid nearly twice as much
or It as they would have paid lesr
than five years from now," said Smith.
"Prices have risen more than 100 per
cent since 1914. They will drop at
least 50 per cent in the next few year
and will eventually get back to the
1914 level. Now is the time to save."
Smith, who is a successful financier,
said: "We have high prices because
of the expansion of credit and conee
quent Inflation. We won't have lo
prices until the people contract the
currency by saving." Save by Invest

but they add to the equipment and value of the farm. Whether you

the right prices.
If you contemplate building that barn, machine shed, or best of all,
a home, come in and let us help you in the planning, The advice we are
able to give you may save you a good many dollars in the cost of those
buildings.
Remember, Winter is coming and then it will be too late to do any
improvement work until Spring, and what you will loose this winter,
from improper housing will go a long 'way toward paying for good
buildings.
We invite you to let us figure your
building program
