INSURE YOUR CROP
Houston County farmers would
do well to give careful considers-!
tion to the offer of the; AAA to;
insure their crops under the Fed
eral crop insurance program.
Congfessman Stephen Pace’s
comments on the advantages a
vailahle under this program were
carried in last week’s issue ol
The Home Journal. He calls at- ;
tenlion to the simple fact that
crop insurance is a service which
has been enjoyed by other groups
lor many years and is now being
offered to the farmer for the first
time.
Houston County, one of only 20
counties in the U. S. to be offer
ed the service, is to be a proving
ground. The cooperation of the
farmers will be the determining!
factor in the success or failure of
the program.
Three leading business estab
lishments in Perry -George C.
Nunn and Son, Davis Warehouse,
Co., and the Perry Loan and
Savings Bank have examined
the provisions of the plan care
fully and recommend it to the
farmers of the county.
The Home Journal believes the
program will bring a greater de
gree of stability for the farmer,
whose fortunes always rise and
fall with the weather, which he
cannot control.
