The United States government is 60

sent out by the Treasury Department
through M. r. Harrison, director Of the
Ninth District War Savings Organiza-

ing at 1920 in August the semi-annual
interest on two 800 bonds will be more
than enough to buy War Savings
Stamp.
Reinvestment of interest in War
Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings
Certificates will be Of surprising help
to the government for it will return to
them in the form of new loans the huge
interest sums that must be paid out on
the Third Liberty Loan,' Mr.. Harrison
said. "The nation must pay out, in all

$88,750,9S3.06 interest in the Third

Attention has been called by the
state insurance department in relation
to FIRE insurance policy holders who
have taken advantage Of the co-insur-
ance clause feature in seeking reduc-
ton of rates. It is pointed out that
inasmuch as structures have greatly
increased in value, the same amount Of
insurance carried as before increased
values prevailed would be insufficient,
the insurance not being the proper per-
eentage, thus in case Of fire loss, max
ink the policyholder contributor to
the loss, when the loss does not exceed
the amount of the policy. AS struc-
lures at the present time are nearly
double in value, the insurance carried
under the clause should be increased in
she same proportion if the same protec-
tion is desired.

Little Falls may be able to add a
buffalo to it's animal selection at Pine
Grove park next year. Due to the fact
that the government through it's depart
nent Of agriculture took up in 1906 the
problem Of preserving the buffalo, a
large increase in the species has come
about, and provision has been made in
the 1920 appropriation act for the Sec
rotary Of agriculture to give not ex-
eeeding one buffalo to municipalities
from any surplus that may exist in the
herds now under control Of the govern
mont. In North America there are ap-
proximately 1000 buffalo, Canada hav-
ing slightly over half that number and
the United States the balance, 1900
Of which belong to individuals. The
number in the United States at this
time is seven times as great as in 1889,
when the first buffalo census was taken.
