Clean Up the Premises.

Gov. Roberts has issued a procla.
nation fixing Oct. 3 as Fire Prevention
Day in Tennessee. On that day all
citizens are urged to clean up their
premises, remove the rubbish and 9TH
erwlse dispose of all trash that might
In any way cause a fire.
The warning of the Governor ought
not to go unheeded. The fire bill in
Tennessee amounts to several millions
Of dollars each year 1t Is hard for one
not acquainted with statistics to real.
ize this enormous waste A fire here
and fire there Is forgotten as the
months run along; but at the end OF
the year the total is footed up and the
public pays the price.
1t Is one OF the fundamental rules
In insurance that the lower the risk
is the cheaper the insurance rates will
be. II fires could be prevented the
risk would be reduced. A reduction
in rates would very naturally follow.
The benefits would soon get back to
the public in cheaper fire insurance
rates. Besides there Is some incon-
venience in being burned out.
Fires can be prevented. 1t is prob
able that so per cent of the fires in
Tennessee are due to carelessness in
one form or an@ther The prudent
business man has safety appliances
which help to reduce the hazard, and
Il his business does not justify that
he makes frequent inspections to see
the no unnecessary dangers are ex-
Isting He keeps his premises free
from trash and rubbish which might
contribute to fire
For years and years insurance men
have contributed time and money to
lire prevention campaigns. The theory
nay be that it Is better to have small
or premiums and fewer fires than lar
ger premiums and more fires. How
ever that may be, it is the public pri-
narily that benefits from such cam
paigns. More attention ought to be
paid to reducing fire risks. A hearty
response to Gov. Roberts proclama-
ton ought to be expected throughout
Ihe state. Memphis would do we'll to
take the Memphis Commercial
Appeal

sATloNs REGARDING coLLEc-
TloNs FOR FIRE LOSSES.
WHAT AN ATTORNEY SAYS
Policy Of Agents Should Be To Take
More Active Part AS Fire Pre-
vsntion Missionaries.

Insurance men, themselves, have I'M
consciously helped to make popular a
statement commonly used when there
is a fire to defraud an insurance com
pany, which helps to create the wrong
impression Of the result to the state
and the community when such a fire
occurs. The expression is that the man
has sold out to the insurance com
panies." 1t is just because too many
people believe that this is what hap.
pens when neighbor burns down
his building to obtain insurance, that
these same neighbors are not willing
to convict the criminal when he Is
brought to trial, II we, who are IA
mliar with the truth and true econom-
les Of this situation, were to use con.
stantly the expression. He sold out to
the public" we should be setting a
better example for others.
One of the most successful attorneys
handling incendiary fire cases for in.
surance companies fighting claims
made following crooked fires, reports
that he finds the best arguments to
be emphasized are the public nature
OF the insurance business, and the
real relation of the fire loss to every
man on the jury, The attorney has
studied until he knows the most effec.
tive examples to use in arguing his
point. II every man in the insurance
business, or any related business, were
to combat the idea expressed in the
language "sold out to the insurance
company" whenever he heard this ex.
preston, instead of laughingly accept.
ing it, he could make many Of his fel.
low citizens see the serious side of
that same selling out as it affected
them. We overlook most of our op.
portunities to be reaA fire prevention
missionaries, and leave all of these
expressions on the subject to some
convention attended by men who are
already filled with knowledge and un-
derstanding of the subject.

Farmers Can Depend Upon This
Crop For Pasture And

GIVE SUMMER CULTIVATION
Seed Should Be Planted Shallow in
a Loose Blanket Over Firm Soil
Cover with Weeder, Harrow or
Brush.

If your crimson clover field is not
being prepared now, you are missing
an opportunity to make the most out
Of this clover as winter cover crop,
pasture, hay or green manure. Grim
son is the tried friend of the Tennes-
see farmer No other winter Iegume
will do for the soils what this one will.
This clover is harder than red, and
for this reason it is far superior for
either late fall or winter pasture, and
for turning under in the spring.
Summer worked land Is far the best
to insure a stand Of crimson clover.
No other way is quite so good. Your
county agent will be glad to consult
with you in regard to the details Of
preparation Of the seed bed, and other
things about this crop.
Legumes such as crimson clover re-
quire a special seed bed. Such seeds
must be planted shallow, and on firm
soil. They must not be planted deep
or in loose earth. They like light
blanket of loose soil, however, If the
earth beneath them is firm. Legume
seeds should be sown, to obtain best
results, upon land that has been rolled
not dragged They should be COW
cred with a harrow, weeder or brush.
The following is the rate of seeding
for clovers: hulled seed IS pounds;
unhulled seed 30 pounds; bur clover
cleaned seeds pounds; seed In bur
30 pounds; red clover II pounds;
alsike clover 8 pounds; alfalfa 25
pounds; sweet clover 20 pounds;
vetch 20 pounds.
