There's nothing prettier, nothing 

 makes a man prouder than new com 

 stretching up, deep green, hill of vigor 

 and promise. But remember this: Hail strikes hard 

 and fast and without warning. It can cut that com 

 to ribbons before your eyes and leave you stand- 

 ing there, no longer proud, but mighty SAD. But 

 you needn't take chances with hail. Last year 

 Country Mutual Fire Company paid out over $1,- 

 000,000 to reimburse Illinois Farm Bureau farmers 

 for hail damage sustained to growing crops. This 

 year, enjoy the same low-cost protection. See your 

 Farm Bureau insurance agent today and learn how 

 little it costs to know that your growing crops are 

 safe. : ^' ■■ -■ -y
