State Insurane. Matters.

State Insurance Commissioner ].
Wallace Blunt in. Bulletin No. IA,
just issued, has the following to say
of the resident agents law:
The attention of insurance COM
panies and managers is called TO our
resident agents law which provides
that only resident of Maine may be
licensed to ect as agent in Maine Of
company from another state This
statute also provides that IF any per-
son solicits receives or forwards any
risk or application for insurance to
any company. without first receiving
such license, or fraudulently assumes
to. be an agent and thus procures
risks and receives money for premi-
dollars for each offense."
Instances have come to our atten-
ton indicating that general or speciai
agents, not resident of the state, have
been permitted by their company or
manager to assist in the soliciting Of
business or placing of risks in this
state. Even though accompanied by
local agent, the nonresident rep
resentative may not participate in So
Letting or persuadipg any person to
place insurance either on his life, per-
son or property in this state
Regarding new legislation Mr.
Blunt says:
With the converting of our Legis-
lature less than two months away. it
is but natural that the consideration
Of legislation affecting insurance
should have prominent place in the
activities of this department.
The commissioner firmly believes
that prospective legisla tion can be
best considered by taking the view
point Of the local agent, of the field
men, Of the company officials and of
the state supervisory officials. Con-
ference on all such pending leg7sla-
ton far enough in advance of the con-
vening Of our legislative bodies to
permit ample elaboration should
serve to eliminate any objectionable
matters which may be proposed.
With this idea in view tbs depart
ment invites suggestions as to legis-
lative enactment which will, in the
minds Of those interested. improve our
laws as they affect insurance.
There is without doubt an unrea-
sonable tendency on the part OF the
American people to turn to legislative
enactment for their troubles which in
n majority Of cases are imaginary.
This department believes that in gen
eral the fewest possible laws are de-
sirable but that such laws as are
necessary to safeguard all interests
should be enacted"

THE CITY
CIVIC PRIDE GREAT AID
TO ALL GROWING CITIES.
Loyalty, Enthusiasm and Energy Need
Cd For Home institutions.

''Town boosting is q phase Of adj
vertising that has been developed in
comparatively recent years. 1t is true
that many years ago there were a few
,enterprising cities that spread broad
cast ailuring statements of their ad-
vantages. but this advertising was
done more in the interest of real es-
tate dealers than for the general good
of the community. These efforts, too,
were sporadic and without system. To-
day there are hundreds of cities all
Ove the country that are conducting
systematic. thoroughgoing advertising
campaigns. and they are getting big
returns for the money spent.
Aside from getting new residents
and industries. the advertising Of a
town is a mighty good thing in another
way. 1t develops a loyalty and enthu-
siasm and Il pride in home institutions
that are worth a good deal to the mer-
chants of the city. When a lot of
enthusiastic business men keep ham,
mering away at the fact that this is
the best town in the. state or the
United States people after awhile alb
sorb some of the boosters enthusi-
assn. They begin to see the doughnut
instead of the hole.
They find many virtues where be.
fore they sawronly faults. and before
long a lot Of chronic knockers are
transformed into boosters A well
developed local pride among all citi.
zens is one Of the most valuable assets
a town can have. 1t is the strongest
possible antidote for the mail order
complaint. 1t keeps money at home
and benefits every one in the town.

TYPE OF FIELD HOUSE.
be constructed for considerably less
than the usual cost of such buildings
and yet meet the requirements of the
average community.
In 1911 the Seattle park commission
sent its superintendent and secretary
on an inspection trip to about fifteen
American cities for the special study
Of field houses and bath houses. The
result of their. investigation has been
embodied in the construction Of the
Seattle type Of field house. .
These men were greatly impressed
with the diversified facilities provided
in the elaborate system of recreation
buildings In Chicago. Smaller cities
lack the means to provide such luxuri-
GUS institutions, and it was necessary
for Seattle to work out a modified
type Of building. A practical. eco
nomical and serviceable field house
was planned. which embraces nearly
all Of the features Of the Chicago
buildings. and can be constructed and
equipped for $4,000. or about one
fourth Of the cost Of the Chicago
buildings.
Four buildings Of this type have
been constructed in Seattle. and vari-
Gus authorities who have inspected
them pronounce them model social cen
ter structures for the average city.

4 SELECTION OF BULBS.

For those who have not yet secured
their supply Of bulbs for winter and
spring. a suggestion rs to varieties
may be found helpful. The writer has
found the following very satisfactory:
Tulips-La Refine twhite). Queen Of the
Netherlands pink. Yellow Prince.
Rose Grisdelin white with pink tips,
Couronne dor (orange,. Murillo (pink)
and Rubra Maxima deep red,. OF
those named the blossoms of the first
four are single. and of the last three
double. OF the narcissi. the double
Won Sion and Orange Phoenix are
among the best. while Of the single
varieties the Emperor and Empress
are very satisfactory. OF the hya-
cinths the Gigantea (blush pink. La
Grnndesse twhite,. General Pelissier
bright red, and L'Esperance bright
deep violet, are among the choicest.
The bnlhs should be put in rich sandy
earth. In pots or in groups in boxes
about an inch below the surface. and
the pots. and boxes containing them
submerged in earth in still larger
boxes. They shonld be watered
enough to keep the earth moist. but
not wet. After the roots hive develop
ed well the pots may be brought up
as desired. depending upon whether
one wishes early or later bloom. The
bulbs are easily handled. and no fami.
ly should he without n few to give
bloom when other flowers are scarce.

Preventive Treatment With Serum Has

The university farm Of Minnesota
university has published a bulletin on
hog cholera and Its preventive treat
ment. from which the following is
cleaned:
Hog cholera has been recognized as
4 specific contagious disease of swine
for about 100 years. The first anthem
ticated outbreak in this country occur
red in 1888. when large numbers Of
hogs in Ohio died from Il disease which
answers the description of hog cholera
as we now know 1t.
This highly contagious disease has
caused the loss of millions of dollars
annually. 1t has been estimated that
the losses during 1912 reached $50.OOO,-
600. One state alone is said to have
sustained a loss of $10,O0O.O0O from
this dread disease in 1912.
1t has been recently discovered that
well hogs may be treated vaccinated)
with hog cholera serum sc that they
will not take the disease if exposed
later. Such treatment is called immu-
nization. This method Of treatment

TESTING DAIRY cows.

Value Of 4 Milk Producer Can Be As
eertained In No Other Way.
The dairy farmer who is not testing
his cows and who does not know what
they have done for him in actual dol
lars and cents is guessing, and guesses
at the best are inaccurate.
The methods of weighing. sampling
and testing the milk of the individual
dairy herd has been explained time
and again, says the Kansas Farmer.
As a matter of fact 1t does require a
good deal of time to do this. state
ments to the contrary Notwithstanding.
However, the time expended in arriv-
ing at the relative merits of each COW
and of the herd as compared with 9th
er herds will we'll repay for the time
expended. 1t is absolutely impossible
for any man to guess at the profit of
the individual cow. All signs of eco
nomical milk production fail in the
case of the dairy COW.
If q farmer does not feel disposed to
do this testing himself he can afford
to organize his neighbors with himself
into a COW testing association. Under
the testing association plan 81 a year
will pay for the testing Of each cow.
and this is money well expended. The
testing Of dairy cows, viewed from
this standpoint, is inexpensive.
