TOWNSHIP MUTUALs CUT iNsUR.
ANCE COST.

Township mutual" fire insurance
companies in Minnesota on January 1,
1914, were carrying insurance amount
ing to $342,223,319, on which the an
nual premiums were $696,732. The av-
erage cost for each 500 of insurance
in force was 10 cents, as compared
with an annual charge of 46 cents per
500 on three-year contracts by "pri-
vate' insurance companies. This
meant saving to the farmers of the
State Of $957,6O0. 1t has been esti-
mated that the total saving for 35
years up to 1910, allowing for the ef-
feet of competition in reducing the
rates of old-line companies and for
compound interest on the premium
charges saved from year to year, has
probably been about $20,0OO,OO0.
These figures are taken from Expert
ment Station Bulletin 146 on 'Statis-
tics of Cooperation Among Farmers
in Minnesota" by l.. D. H. Weld, Chief
of the Division of. Research in Agri.
cultural Economics of the University
of Minnesota.
Fire insurance companies of this
type were among the first permanently
successful cooperative enterprises or.
ganized in Minnesota, dating back to
1867. In 1873 the insurance in force
in such companies was $923,67S. The
losses incurred were $425. In 1911 in
surance in force was that given in the
foregoing. The losses incurred that
year were $513,973.
