NORTH DAKOTA NEWS
STATE Insurance

A North Dakota farmer has worked
out a plan for the state to engage in
the hail insurance business, IL also re-
curing every farmer in the state to
carry such insurance. The plan is out
lined in a prepared bill, which is In
the hands of a member Of the legisla-
ture, with the request that it be intro
duced at the forthcoming session.
The bill provides that the assessors
OF each township in tho state shall
make a report Of the number of acres
cropped out by each land owner. 1t is
made the duty of county commission
crs to levy a tax Of s cents for each
rcre of crop, and the amount Of tax
thus levied is to be a lien on the land
described, collected in the same man.
ner as other taxes. At the end Of each
month the county treasurer in each
county will make a report to the state
treasurer, S owing the amount OF
money collected under the act, and
forward such amount collected to the
state treasurer, who will set such
amounts aside as a hail insurance fund
for the purpose of paying losses on
growing crops damaged or destroyed
by hail.
The county commissioners arc to act
as adjusters, and will report to the
clerk OF court Of each county, who will
in turn report to the state auditor,
who will issue his warrant. payable
out of the hail insurance fund created
by the tax of 5 cents an acre on all
growing crops. In no case will an ad-
justment exceed 81 an acre.
The man who has worked out the
plan, fearing a claim of unconstitu.
ttonality, has suggested that it might
further be provided that grain grow
ers shall have the opportunity Of TAX
ing out hail insurance with the state,
each assessor asking each man assessed
whether or not he desired hail insur-
ance. his reply to become a part OF his
report to the county auditor, and in
turn by him reported to the state
auditor.
With a provision making it optional
with farmers in taking out hail insur-
ance on such a plan, it is expected that
the measure will be approved by large
numbers Of farmers.
