C. Church Lumber company of Des Moines, Iowa, departed this morn- ing for Nary to look after the load- ing atthat place.

Why should not all this money be kept at home to help our bankers and merchants? The North- ‘western National Life loans your money to the farmers at a FIXED, rate of inter- est and at the same time helps to build up Minnesota. Iowa has learned a great lesson. She has five good old line insurance companies. Fifteen years ago Des Moines was an over-grown town. Today a city of almost 100,000 and the place is dotted with fine businsss and office buildings. Life insurance money did it. A man who is doing business in Bemidji will be benefitted if all this money is saved to our own state. Our local banks can loan their money to the farmers and the Northwestern National Life will buy the mortgages, Our annual premiums ARE LESS and our INTEREST EARNINGS LARGER than eastern com- panies.
