LARRY WILLIAMS SPEAKS AT JO DAVIESS PICNIC 

 Farm Adviser "Hank** Brunnemeyer of Jo Daviess County snapped this one at the 

 Farm Bureau picnic near Galena on Aug. 15. Williams addressed similar gatherings in 

 several other counties.

Insurance, 



By Lawrence A. Williams 



''I^ME man who carries ample lite insurance 

 *■ has a chance to relax from the daily strain 

 and worry of life. He is relieved of the anxiety 

 of calamity or of income ceasing at his death. 

 The reward of satisfaction and freedom from 

 wiirry is indeed worth the etTort of prompt 

 annu.ll deposits. 



institution. Some folkf want to be stire. Bui 

 the Company was as sound the first month as 

 it possibly could be the 70th year, so far as 

 the death claim of the policyholder is con- 

 cerned. 



Country Life has been receiving comment 

 liberally in the various publications of the 

 country, but what is more important, it is 

 being patronized by the farmer members in 

 every county in the state, with one exception. 



Remember way back when they used to say, 

 "It never will be a success.*' "I'armers can't 

 run a life insurance company." They don't 

 say that anymore. They say, "Xo wonder you 

 can do so well, you have the. whole Farm 

 Bureau behind \ou." 



Flow much insurance should a man carry? 

 Enough to pay his debts, and permit his fam- 

 ily to live on the income from the principal 

 invested. At 4. 8^0 the interest on $10,000 

 amounts to $40.00 per month. 



Uo you think there will be a Farm Bureau 

 family in all t»f Illinois which cannot boast at 

 least one policy in Country Fife by the end 

 ot December this vcar? 



Our speech, "The Passing of the Hick," will 

 be sent on request to any one who writes to 

 life at 608 So. Dearborn St., Chicago. 



A definite increase in the size of policies now- 

 being taken in Country Life shows the growing 

 confidence of our folks in that remarkable 



p.itroni/cd b>' enough producers t<» bring 

 rs.iiuo to 1UO,000 lbs. of butterfat to town 

 annually is a promising center for a ctiopera- 

 live produce marketing association. 



Chicago Producers 



(Continued from page 9) 



I ast year the Chicago Producers' handled 

 ^ u per cent more business than any other sell- 

 ini; agency on the Chicago market. With bet- 

 ter support from Farm Bureau members who 

 nude possible the organization of the Produ- 

 cers' movement, this business can be increased 

 niateriallv'. 



The National Live Stock Producers' Associ- 

 ation, the largest and most representative farm 

 organization in the livestock field, is in a posi- 

 tion to co-operate with the Federal Farm Board 

 toward stabilizing this branch of the farming 

 industry. The benefits already derived from 

 the Producers' movement can be greatly en- 

 hanced if more farmers .will ship their livestock 

 to their own co-operative commission agency.
