e
with the higher
farm prices NFO
has brought me.'
"I'm serious. I've been in NFO
four years now. The higher
farm prices NFO member
ship has meant to me would
have paid for a new Cadillac
and then some. But whether
, you need higher farm prices to buy a car, send a
boy to college or give your family a better living,
you need NFO. NFO is putting America's money
on the American farmer." Eugene Janssen,
Farmer, Moville, Iowa.
You too can reap a profit
from NFO membership.
Up until now, the American farmer could raise
just about anything. ..except farm prices. But
now there's NFO. NFO puts upward pressure on
farm prices. Not just here and there. But across
the board. And across the land. NFO has mem
bers in every agricultural country of every con-'
tinental state in the union. With power to assem-'
ble production, and bargain with it, and move it
from low price areas to high price areas. And to
write supply contracts. So things are good. But
we need your membership too. Help us go one
better. Join NFO. Today. There's an NFO Repre
sentative in your county.
