MUNICH PALITIES
Will BE EXEMPTED

Madison, Wis, Aug. 26.-One of the
most important rulings recently made
in, regard to insurance is that of the
wisconsin State industrial commission
which has Issued an order exempting
all municipalities from the necessity
Of carrying liability insurance to cover
compensation that may be awarded to
their employees for injuries under the
Workmans compensation law. The
commission is authorized under the
law to exempt such employers as may
ask to be exempted and who are fully
able to pay any awards against them
The commission believed that all
towns, counties, villages and cities. of
the state are able to pay any awards
that may be made against them. The
Industrial commission has also exempt
ed 100 private employers from the re-
quirement of carrying liability insur-
ance.
The commission is closely watching
liability insurance companies operat-
ing in Wisconsin to see that they are
not discriminating in their rates and
are treating all patrons alike. These
companies will in a short time be re-
quired to file In the commissions office
a copy of an abstract of all policies
issued in the state in order to show
that they are dealing fairlywith their
patrons. The rates vary according to
the hazard of the employment, ranging
from 28 cents to- $11.50 per 500 of
wages paid by employers. The highest
rate is on employees in rock blasting
and the lowest on office employees.

Will MAKE FLOUR
FROM Wild rice
NEW INDUSTRY STARTED IN THE
PoPPLE RIVER COUNTRY OF
MINNESOTA.

Grand Rapids, Mimi, Aug. 26.-F. L..
Vance, "the wild rice king" of the
Popple river country, has commenced
the manufacture of rice flour from the
products of the shallow lakes of north
ern Minnesota.
For years Mr. Vance has made a
business of harvesting wild rice and
has built up market The -four will
be manufactured at the Anderson grist
mill at La Prairie, special machinery
for the purpose being installed.
Before being ground the rice must
go through a roasting or drying pro-
cess and this is done near where the
grain is harvested A machine devised
and built for this purpose by Mr..
Vance is capable of roasting 1900
pounds in six minutes.
AS far as known this is the first
time an attempt has been made to
manufacture -four from wild rice. The
raw material is PLENTIFUL and practi-
cally the only cost will be the gather
ing and grinding, no seeding or soil
preparation being necessary.
