POLICYHOLDERS WILL
PASS ON NEW PLAN
Prudential Issues Call to r..
100000 for Vote on Mu-
tualiZatiOn.

In Issuing n call for a meeting on De-
comber 7 Of the ~. 10000 and more policy
holders OF the Prudential Insurance Com
pany OF America 70 vote on the proposed
naturalization OF the company, President
Forrest +. Dryden outlines some OF the
benefits which he and his associates be-
reve will follow. IT IA the first statement
tho company has made on naturalization
since the project was started In January.
1913.
Every policyholder above the age OF Fl
years, and whose policy has been In force
Mt least one year. will be privileged either
to attend the meeting and vote or else 10
send proxy 70 be voted in his or her
name. Former Chancellor William j.
Magic, former Supreme Court Justice Ben
nett Van Syckel and Vice-President John
X Gore have been selected TO represent
the policyholders who are unable to be
present
Among other things Mr.. Dryden had this
TO say on naturalization:
The naturalization OF the company Will
provide for the election OF directors by the
policyholders. which will insure for oil
time n continuance Of the uniform practice
OF the Prudential TO accord TO Its policy
holders the greatest degree OF liberality
commensurate with safety.
when naturalization is effected dis
tribut!on OF the surplus earnings OF the
company will include all its policyholders.
both participating and non-participatins,
While under the existing low rates the
net cos, TO the present policyholders may
not, at tho outset, be greatly reduced on
account OF naturalization, nevertheless
every dollar earned by n continuance OF
the sound and economical conduct OF
Prudential affairs will, from the very
beginning, be credited TO the policyholders
as the owners OF the company.
I'VE believe that the substantial ben
efits 10 be gained through the requirement
by the policyholders OF the stock at n
price judlcially ascertained 10 be fair and
reasonable will appeal forcibly 10 them
and will induce them 10 give approval &c
the plan"
After the Legislature OF New Jersey
had passed an act early In 1913 enabling
the company TO mutualize the main prob
lem presented was an accurate ascerta In
ment OF the value OF the capital stock
This was finally done by appraisement
the appraisers being former United States
Senator James Smith, Jr.. former Governor
John Franklin Fort and former Assistant

who We're appointed by Chancellor Walker
Of New Jersey The interests OF the
] policy holders in this proceeding were
looked after by former United States AT.
' torney General John w. Grlggs and Mer.
rift Lane OF Jersey City. After delibera,
ton the value of each Prudential share
having par value OF $50 was fixed al
sass. and at a recent meeting OF the
stockholders OF the company, attended
by n per cent. OF the shareholders. thi;
price was approved without n DISSENTING

GROWING CATALPAs IN IOWA

How would you like to plant crop,
give it some care Tor d year or two
and then have it return 10 You an an.
nual profit of more than $40 per acre,
at the cost of practically no further
attention, as compared with other
farm crops?
This is what is being done on a
catalpa tree plantation in Mahaska
county. Here by good care and proper
management nearly half an acre OF
catalpas has supplied the owner each
year with all his fence posts. up to
the present time the posts that have
been cut have fully paid the cost OF
establishing and caring for the plan
tation. Some OF these posts after sew.
enteen years of service are as good
as when set. This half acre woodiot
fully demonstrates that the catalpa
can be made moneymaking crop.
While not suited to extreme north
ern Iowa. the catalpa has been grown
successfully in many sections of the
state. Some failures have been due
to the selection of the prong species.

1t is common experience among
farmers TO lose the services of a young
horse during the spring months due to
bruised shoulder or sweeney This
can be avoided largely by giving the
colt proper care and handling during
the winter months.
The common practice that most
farmers have of letting the colts run
loose in the field until the morning
they are ready to SOW oats and then
putting them on the disk or harrow
without any previous preparation for
such work is what causes the trouble
The colt is soft and often the collar
does not at properly and the result
IL a lame horse.
To overcome this trouble put the
colt In the stable the winter before he
IL to be worked and feed him a light
grain ration. Oats is the best grain to
feed If the price 10 not too high as 1t
will harden the colts muscles while
coIn has tendency to soften them
A good ration for young horses is oats
one part. corn one part, timothy and
good clover. If the clover is dusty or
musty leave 1t out of the ration and
feed timothy alone. II oats are too
expensive the ration can be cheap

In region composed almost wholly
of high grade agricultural land the
extent of tree planting Is generally
small. Generally speaking, lands
which will produce good crops cannot
profitably be devoted to the produc-
ton of timber. The average farmer
does not feel that he can afford to
wait for his income until the trees
mature. In many cases this is I'M
doubtedly true, yet granting this, we
still contend that certain amount of
tree planting is highly desirable and
also profitable. The profit derived
from tree planting cannot be meas
ured wholly by the amount of tim
Der produced. We must also consider
the great protection which is afforded
10 the farm buildings, to crops and to
STOCK What is more pleasing even
TO man out in snow and windstorm
than to find shelter for a few minutes
under group of pine trees? Lastly,
the windbreak has quite an aesthetic
value. Nothing is more tiresome to
the eye than vast Stretch of treeless
>ouhNi y. III liliS dEtlCIo. however, lH6
writer will confine himself to the
growing of trees primarily for protec-
ton and incidentally for the produc-
ton of timber.
For this section OF the country the
%indbreak and woodlot are generally
combined. thus getting protection and
at the same time producing at least
the wood and timber generally needed
on the farm. In locating this planting
for winter protection it should of
course be on the north or north and
west sides of the buildings to be pro-
tected The trees may be planted in
more or less dense stand or in
rows. The number of rows may vary
anywhere from one to ten or twelve.
Even one row of trees, especially If
evergreens, will give some protection,
yet at least three rows would be
much better. Professor II. P. Baker
(Forest Service Circular l54), former
ly professor of forestry in Iowa State
college, recommends nine or ten rows
OF trees, some of these being decid-
uous. but mostly evergreens
Among the evergreens the white
pine. Austrian pine. white spruce. and
Black Hills spruce are some of the
best. The list of the deciduous trees
