Twice-a-week plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1895-1913, 1906-09-07
Uniform Policy Drafted.

Uniform Policy Drafted.
The legislative insurance commits
sion has devoted the past month to
the consideration of fire insurance
laws and policies.
1t has, with the assistance Of its
counsel, Geo. R. Sanderson, prepared
the uniform fire insurance policy
which must be used in insuring Iowa
property.
The form adopted has been based
on the New York Standrd form which
has the support of the insurance
companies, but it has been modified
to conform to the existing Iowa
laws. For instance, instead Of the
claimant, in case of loss, being COM
PEELED to furnish long schedules Of
personal property destroyed or dam
aged, with a long history of his title,
other insurance, membranes and
host of other things, a simple afi.
davit stating the amount of his loss
is sufficient and he is not to be re-
Quired to submit to an appraisal.
A consent by the company or its
agent in any manner is to take the
place Of "consent' in writing, in.
dorsed on the policy" required for
Its change or modification.
Indeed, Iowa will stand in the race
Of the states in adopting a fair and
simple contract, which the ordinary
assured can understand by mere
reading Of 1t, without hiring lawyer
or an adjustor to explain It's provis-
ions.

The weekly issue of the FREE
PREssE FUER TEXAS has po-
sitively the largest circulation
of all German papers published
in the State of Texas. 1t is
mailed to $50 post-offices, and
has an extended circulation in
Mexico. in the Indian Territory,
and in Oklahoma.
1t circulates from Galveston
to Denison, from Marshall to Ell
Paso and of course mainly in
the thickly populated central
and southwestern parts of the
state. as also in Mexico.
Two tlaveItng men and our
very active local agents are con-
tinuously adding new sub:

In consideration of these facts
the "FREIE PREssE FUER TEXAS

tising medium In the State of
Texas, when it is the object to
reach the German reading po-
pulation.

WHAT WE OWE TO INSECTS.
They Are Of the Greatest Benefit to
Growing Flowers.

Prof. Darwin said that II 1t had not
been for insects we should never have
had any more imposing or attractive
flowers than those of the elm, the hop
and the nettle. Lord Ayebury COM
pares the work Of the insect to that Of
the florist. He considers that just as
the florist has by selection produced
the elegant blo' IONS of the garden. so
the insects, by selecting the largest
and brightest blossoms for fertiliza-
ton, have produced the gay flowers Of
the field Prof, Plateau of Client, has
carried out series Of remarkable ex-
periments on the ways of insects visit
Ing flowers. He considers that they
are guided by scent rather than by
color, and in the connection he Is at
variance with certain British natural
lists. Whatever may be the attraction
In flowers to insects-as yet, it ap-
pears undefined-it is certain that the
latter visit freely all blossoms alike,
making no distinction between the
large. bright-colored ones and the less
conspicuous blossoms like those Of the
currants. the lime, the planetree. the
nettle and the willow.
