A TIMELY REMINDER

This is planning time for the farmer. The revenue from the harvest must be apportioned to meet payments due, and to finance the needs of another year.

Do not neglect to make provision for sufficient life Insurance. The outlay required for a Policy is small, but the investment will give your family the protection they need, and pay you well if you live out the term of the contract.
