AN INSURANCE RULING.

ErOpcrVy OWnorS SnOulO De Careful
Not to Insure With Unlicensed Com
panies.
The question has been asked In
surance Commissioner McMaster sew
eral times recently whether q policy
OF insurance in this State. written by
q company not licensed to do business
In this State. was valid as against the
company writing the same. The COM
missioner has replied that there was
nothing in the laws declaring such a
policy contract invalid, but on the
contrary under section GOT, Of the
criminal code. providing for punish
rnent Of a person writing such a poll
cy, BY Implication the policy contract
Is declared to be binding on the
company. But the real question to be
settled would be the method of en-
forcing such policy contract. The
company would not be permitted to
send an adjuster into the State to ad-
Just the loss. and any person acting
for the company would make himself
liable for the penalties provided in
section e07 Of the criminal code. Not
only would the adjusting be matter
OF difficulty, but there would be no
means Of enforcing the contract, as
company not licensed to do busi-
ness under the laws of this State
would have no resident agent. and no
person on whom service of papers
could be made resident in the State.
1t. therefore. behooves every one
who hold q policy OF insurance to be
assured that the company issuing the
same Is regularly licensed to do bus.

purpose OF prosecuting the criminal
cases against certain persons in con-

decision some months ago. declaring

titled to the writ Of mandamus for
which he pstitioned. a. the supreme

Prischard has modified his order 90

terms OF the injunction. and on the
presentation Of this fact to the su-

granted. The dispensary commission
refused to turn over the money

Gated that he felt that the matter
ooght to be sdjudicated with all rea-

Tho chief contention Of the appel

suit was In effect . suit against the
state and that the commission ap-
pointed by the legislature to wind up
the anairs of the dispensary was a
court and could not be enjoined by
another court; no one save the state
had any interest In the business to
Be rauidated and that the State was
therefore an indispensable party to
the proceedings.

WINTER PASTURE GRASS.
interesting Facts About Rescue Grass
ana Its Adaptability to This eli.
mate.

"r holtor: Recently In one Of
Mr. Reardon's interesting articles
there was mentioned an effort on the
part OF the Sumter county farmers
70 secure grass for winter grazing
IN order more successfully to carry
on stock-raising In the county.
Unfortunately for US our climate is
too hot for Kentucky Blue grass to
grow and there are many acres Of land
In the county that would pay infinite.
ly better seeded In some good grass
than as at present in the miserable
crops Of cotton over which the shift
less tenant squats while he chews his
wad of low tobacco.
Not only is Sumter county in need
OF good winter grazing grass. but in
my trips over different parts of the
State I have been especially struck
with our lack Of any grass save
broom-sage. Red hills bare and
washed into gullies strike your eye
In our entire upper section and in
winter burned broom sedge tires the
eye from here to the coast We
have a few grasses which grow lux
uriantly in the summer and Bermuda
grass Is one Of the best. For hay
pea-vines mixed with crab-grass or
perhaps "crowfoot" is our standard of
excellence. I fnd, however that our
market offers only 80 cents to $1.10
for pea-vines and that is mixed with
Johnson grass, while the best pea
vines and crab grass does not bring
any more. Timothy, with all its
seed threshed out. brings at the
same time less than 1925. But that
Is not what want to get at. We
know very we'll that the average far
mer does not seem to want to plant
an acre Of grass II he can possibly put
that acre in cotton, and the idea of
spring Of strange grass having the
audacity to come up on his gully
washed. acres would make his very
bones rattle in his hide bound cotton
skin. A few years ago I was struck
with the brilliant juicy green of a
patch Of grass which in January
looked as II 1t had turned the season
back to July. watched it with in
terest and in the latter part Of April
It sent out seeds stalks over two feet
high bearing heavy pannacles Of
seed and then quickly died. Not till
the latter part Of summer was there
any sign that this grass was ever
there, and then as a field Of sprouting
oats IL came and grew and fiourished,
Byt December it was fully ten inches
high, and its season ran as before. No
one seemed to know its name, so re-
Gently sent specimen to the de-
partment Of agriculture. and I enclose
with this the reply and also the de-
scriptive circular telling Of the grass.
I think this would be well worth in
vestigating by the farmers of your
county and shall attempt a small
experiment with 1t myself.

throughout the Southern States this
grass usually behaves as an annual
