From an estimate it appears that the
acreage which took out insurance
under the state plan this year, was
e greater than anticipated. More
insurance was written by the state de-
partment than " before by private
companies.
The a%nti-farmer press, continuing
its campaign Of Misrepresentation, has
been trying to spread the idea that
from 80 to IS per cent Of the farm
ers Of the state refused to take out tho
state insurance. This is far from the
actual facts, say officials Of the in
surance department, and is based By
the enemies Of the farmer plan on
figures in a half dozen or 80 counties.
The tornado which swept the north
ern part Of the state last week alone
caused about 200 reports of hail losses
to the state hail insurance depart
ment.

For old times sake, they'll lighter

And laughter gay for hours of play
And tenderness and beauty

Who keeps good books about him
