NO INSURANCE AGAINST
AIR RAIDS POSSIBLE NOW

London, Eng, June 19.-The problem
Of insurance against damage by aircraft
raids has become a serious one for mer-
chants in London and other commercial
towns near the east coast The insur-
ance companies have been beset with
applfca lions for insurance against fires
started by Zeppelins but the companies
doing fire insurance business cannot
take such risks. Insuring against Yep
pelins is a pure gamble since there is
nothing in the way Of experience or
probabilities on which any sound sys-
TEN can be based. Consequently the
British government will be obliged to
take charge Of the matter. as it did Of
insuring merchant ships in the earlier
days Of the war.

Ringl.lg, Okla, Jan. a2.--I A.
Ford, travelling salesman Of Pauls

bury twenty five pounds Of ice near
the roots of his trees In case the u.s.

February and makes the sap rise in
the trees. He will dig a hole near
each tree and bury the Ice. The cold
water from the melting Ice will run
down among the roots and keep the
sap in the ground and prevent the
buds and blossom growth, which 9th
erwise might become frost bitten.
For the past two years the peach crop
