STATE FARM MUNICIPAL BOND FUND, INC.
Dear Shareowner:
The sharp rise in market interest rates which occurred in 1994 has been
quickly reversed over the past six months. Yields on the municipal bonds held
by your Fund have dropped nearly 125 basis points (a basis point is .01%)
since November causing the values of the bonds to increase markedly.
Correspondingly, the net asset value of the Municipal Bond Fund rose to $8.39
from $7.88, a 6.5% increase.
Somewhat surprisingly, this decline in market interest rates has taken place
in a period where short-term interest rates which are established by the
Federal Reserve Board actually increased in February and have remained stable
since then. Market psychology has changed. Expectations of an abrupt slowdown
in U. S. economic growth have caused many market participants to conclude that
the Federal Reserve is likely done with its current phase of monetary
tightening, and its next move will be to reduce short-term interest rates.
Virtually all the economic data which has been released over the past couple
months or so indicates that a slowdown of some sort is now in progress. Nobody
really knows whether this is a pause in a long expansion or a pause which
presages a serious general decline. Since many of the telltale signs of
identifiable problems or excesses which typically accompany major declines in
the economy are not presently evident, we tend to believe the slowdown will be
moderate and short.
The present general economic environment suggests that the Federal Reserve
will not push short-term rates higher soon. However, interest rates
established in the market place may be another matter. Price movements in
modern capital markets tend to be much more sudden and anticipatory than in
the past. Consequently, changes in market yields tend to quickly reflect
expectations about the future direction of the economy, either upward or
downward.
Recent declines of interest rates on municipal securities have been
noticeably less than those experienced by their taxable counterparts. Demand
for municipal securities has been waning as talk of tax reform in Congress has
moved to the forefront. The flat tax is an idea which has been proposed by
Richard Armey, House Majority Leader. The desirability of tax exempt interest
income obviously is lessened if a flat tax is implemented at a significantly
reduced tax rate. Future interest rates, and consequently valuations, on
municipal bonds will be influenced by any changes in tax rates. Although
developments on this front are totally unpredictable, we doubt that the flat
tax will be enacted. However, if any radical change of federal income tax
rates become law, its full implementation is likely to be a few years down the
road. The present intermediate maturity structure of the Fund's portfolio
should permit you, as a shareowner, to cope reasonably well with radical tax
modifications if they are not put in place too rapidly.
The supply of municipal bonds available to investors is down this year
despite picking up a bit lately as lower interest rates have encouraged
issuers to float more refunding issues. New municipal bond volume for the
first five months of 1995 is down 36% from last year.
As you know, the Fund declares a dividend each day from its net investment
income which is payable on the last day of the calendar quarter. All dividends
are automatically invested in shares of the Fund unless you have advised State
Farm Investment Management Corp. otherwise in writing.
Sincerely,
Kurt G. Moser Julian R. Bucher

STATE FARM MUNICIPAL BOND FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SECURITIES VALUATION --
Municipal bonds and notes and other debt securities are valued using
quotations provided by an independent pricing service. Short-term debt
securities having a maturity of 60 days or less from the valuation date are
valued on an amortized cost basis. Any securities not valued as described
above are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors or its delegate.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INTEREST INCOME --
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order
to buy or sell is executed). Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis;
premiums and original issue discounts on tax-exempt securities are amortized.
Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an
identified cost basis.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A `WHEN-ISSUED' BASIS --
The Fund may purchase municipal bonds on a `when-issued' basis. Delivery
and payment for these securities may be a month or more after the purchase
date, during which time such securities are subject to market fluctuations. It
is possible that the securities will never be issued and the commitment
cancelled.
FUND SHARE VALUATION, DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREOWNERS --
Fund shares are sold and redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value.
Net asset value per share is determined as of 1:00 p.m. Bloomington, Illinois
time on each business day other than customary weekend and holiday closings,
except that the Fund need not compute a net asset value on any day when no
purchase or redemption order has been received by the Fund. The net asset
value per share is computed by dividing the value of the Fund's investments
and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of Fund shares outstanding.
The Fund declares a daily dividend equal to its net investment income, and
distributions of such amounts are made at the end of each calendar quarter.
Net realized gains on sales of investments, if any, are distributed annually
after the close of the Fund's fiscal year.
Dividends and distributions payable to its shareowners are recorded by the
Fund on the ex-dividend date.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES --
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of the
Internal Rev. Code available to investment companies and, in the manner
provided therein, to distribute all of its taxable income, as well as any net
realized gain on sales of investments reportable for federal income tax
purposes. The Fund has complied with this policy and, accordingly, no
provision for federal income taxes is required.
The accumulated net realized loss on sales of investments at November 30,
1994, amounting to $49,593, is available to offset future taxable gains. If
not applied, the capital loss carryover expires in the year 2002.

2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has an investment advisory and management services agreement with
State Farm Investment Management Corp. (Manager) pursuant to which the Fund
pays the Manager an annual fee (computed on a daily basis and paid quarterly)
of .20% of the first $50 million of average net assets, .15% of the next $50
million of average net assets and .10% of average net assets in excess of $100
million. The Manager guarantees that all operating expenses of the Fund,
including compensation of the Manager but excluding taxes, interest,
extraordinary litigation expenses, brokerage commissions and other portfolio
transaction costs shall not exceed .40% of average net assets annually.
Under the terms of this agreement, the Fund incurred fees of $179,273 for
the six months ended May 31, 1995 and $355,000 for the year ended November 30,
1994. The Fund does not pay any discount, commission or other compensation for
transfer agent or underwriting services provided by the Manager.
Certain officers and/or directors of the Fund are also officers and/or
directors of the Manager. The Fund made no payments to its officers or
directors during the six months ended May 31, 1995 and the year ended November
30, 1994, except for directors' fees of $1,200 and $2,200, respectively, paid
