Insure Against Financial Loss and Insure Your Peace of Mind

The three great State Farm Insurance Companies offer you a complete insurance service for practically every need, backed by a nation-wide reputation for Service, Safety, Satisfaction and Savings.

State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company is not only the largest automobile insur- ance company in the world, but actually the two-to-one choice of American automobile owners.

State Farm Mutual protects twice as many automobile owners as any other company. Sav- ings to policyholders in cost of insurance alone exceed $75,000,000. Let us tell you more today about State Farm Mutual's famous "more auto insurance for your money" plan that has made it the leader in the business-and when you get ready to buy a new car, let us show you how you can save money through the State Farm Bank Plan.

The State Farm Life Insurance Company-one of the country's top one-third companies- offers you complete life insurance protection to satisfy your needs and your pocketbook. A State Farm representative will be glad to go over your insurance program with you, at your convenience, and give you counsel on how you can adapt your program to present-day needs, both for your family and your business.

In these days of increased property values, it is highly important to make sure that your in- surance program is adequate and sound. Would you be willing to sell your home or other property today for the amount of the insurance which you now carry on it? If you own prop- erty in a fire-protected community, a State Farm Fire Insurance Co. agent will be glad to give you, without obligation, an analysis of your fire insurance needs and may be able to show you ways of avoiding heavy loss in case of fire, tornado, riot, civil commotion or other disaster.
