STILL IN BUSINESS

In order to correct mistake that
appears to be widespread, Mr.. Fred p.
Freeman, of the Home Nursery Co.,
Richland, desires to state that he has
not sold out his nursery. business.
While, owing to the pressure of other
business, he has not devoted as much
time to the nursery business as here
tofore, and while it is not unlikely
that other lines Of business may re-
quire all of his time in the near flu
ture, he will in no event dispose of
the nursery stock before the spring de-
livery is over.
He desires to state further that the
Home Nursery still has a good as
sortment of fruit and ornamental
stock, including some items that are
very short, such as Delicious apples,
Italian prunes, Concord and other
grapes, and limited supply of
peaches, Everbearing strawberries and
raspberries.
The Home Nursery Co. also has a
large assortment OF dahsias and glad
ioli, including many fine varieties from
eastern specialists. Also cannas,
roses, perennial phlox and other hardy
percnnials.

many customers for the liberal patron

Al HOME ORCHARD

Numerous requests have come to
this office for a list of berries and
fruits to be planted for a home orch
ard. The following list has been .es-
pecially planned in order that the
home may have berries and fruits, as
nearly as possible throughout the sea-
son. It is not intended that the
rancher should plant every variety
listed below, but that which will suit
him the best, nor should he plant large
quantities of any one kind. Take
Strawberries, one or two dozen plants
of two or three varieties is plenty,
if properly cared for, for an ordinary
family. One half to dozen, plants
Isof the caneberries is plenty. From
three to six vines Of grapes of any one
variety is an abundance, for home use
of the one kind.
In regard to tree fruit. One tree Of
each is all that is needed. A good
home orchard is a valuable asset to
the ranch, end should be well cared for
and not neglected as so many are. -

The only method by which trees gir-

Epartment of the State College says:
Numerous inquiries are received at
the Department of Agriculture every
spring in regard to the treatment Of
fruit trees, especially apple trees, that
have been girdled or otherwise injured
during the winter by mice and rab-
bits. While there are various ways in
which slight INJURIES of this character
may be treated, if any attention seems
advisable, wounds which girdle OF
nearly girdle the trunk require more
specific measures if the tree is to be
saved. In such cases bridge grating
/ is the method of treatment commonly
employed; in fact, it is about the only
remedy that can be recommended. II

scions or small limbs to connect the

such manner that a connection be-

GOOD STREETS
WOULD IMPROVE HEALTH

From the Laurel Leader.
We have been fortunate this week In
having opportunity in talking with a
health authority OF prominence and we
questioned him directly as TO the cause
II disease striking with much more
force in one locality than another. His
explanation was terse and perfectly
sound. He reminded us that sanitary
conditions must exist or disease will.
This brings about a point that the
residents Of this section should give
thought 10. We are surely aware that
muddy, wet streets; damp pavements,
pools OF water gathered In gutter and
at curb, during a period Of weeks or
perhaps during the greater part OF
months, give rise to a general damp
ness and provides a natural breed
ing ground for germs.
Where there are graded and improv-
ed streets and proper sewerage sys-
tens there is far less danger Of dis
ease. Water that becomes stagnant Is
the haven OF germs Of all kinds. Damp
ness Is a mother to disease. We can i'm
prove our health conditions to a great
extent by improvinc our streets. Health
far surpasses any other known condl-
tion. Let US give every support TO the
plan Of the Mayor and Council In hav-
ing our streets improved.

TRIALS OF THE YEAR

In common with all other companies the Con-
IINENTAL was burdened with the necessity of max
ing current income not only the usual dis
bursements but also the greatly increased taxes and
expenses growing out of conditions. At the
same time, interest income reduced by the ne
cessiy of investing heavily in liberty loans at an in
terest rate below the average. Then with the land
ing of our troops in France and the beginning Of
activity on the battle 'front.' war losses began to
come in slowly at first, but increasing steadily with
the increasing activity of the troops.
These heavier disbursements ON account Of in
creased taxes expenses and losses together with
the reduction in interest income because of liberty
bond investments, were quite enough, without any
thing else, to give every company hard struggle
TO maintain the customary dividends to its policy
holders.
But the worst was yet to come. On top Of all this
came the most terrible scourge that has afflicted the
country within the memory of the present genera
ton.
Evening journal., 1919-01-21

THE year 1918, the CoNTINENTAL's eleventh
year of operation, will go down in life insur
ance history as a memorable one in two diff
ferent respects. On the hand, it will long be re-
membered as one of the most trying times in the
tire history of the business; the other, it marks
golden age.
Il will be evident from a careful reading of this
report in connection with the above statement
that life Insurance, in entering the era,
Is confronted with an unprecedented oppor-
tunity and that the CONTINENTAL is in a remark
able position 10 make the most of it. Extravagant
as the statement may seem, think il will be found
that the CONTINENTAL is in stronger position than
any other company in the country TO offer large
turns TO the insuring public, not only without sacr-
fee of security, but actually in combination with
margin of security nearly ten times great the
average.
Evening journal., 1919-01-21

At that mystic moment, life insurance in general
and the CONTINENTAL in particular, began to come
into its War losses ceased taxes and expenses
began to decline, and the necessity of investing in
low rate bonds was largely relieved.
But more important still, tremendous impetus
had been given to the whole idea of life insurance by
the Government scheme of insurance for the soldiers
and sailors; more than four million had each
taken average Of nearly $4,000 of government
insurance. This has So popularized all life insur-
ance TO the Saturday Evening Post to OBJ
that il SHOULD lead to condition in which
responsible adult person will be going around the
country without insurance, any more than without
clothes"
This great popularizaton of life insurance is re-
hected in new business of more than four and a
quarter millions for 1918, increase of 1870
the preceding year, and the largest in his
tory; it is further reflected in the lapse rate which
has fallen to the lowest point in entire expert
ence
This large increase in new business, coupled with
the decrease in the rate of lapse made net gain
of insurance in force 749 greater for 1918 than for
the previous year, and almost as great as for the
two preceding years combined.
Evening journal., 1919-01-21
OUR ENvIABLE POSITION

Fortunately for the policyholders of the Con-
TINENTAL, its unusually large surplus in proportion
TO its liabilities and its wide margin of earning
power render it unnecessary to make any reduction
in the large dividends which it has been paying to
its policyholders.
After providing for all losses and expenses the as
sets of the CONTINENTAL less than 1900 Of its
liabilities; for every 500 of liability, the company
not only has 500 of assets with which to meet It.
but il also has another $50 top of IT, as compared
with margin of only about tenth as much in the
average company.
Moreover, under normal conditions the CoNTI-
MENTAL nearly three times the large dividends
to its poicyholders, while other companies, paying
smaller dividends, normally but fraction more
than they pay out.
The two facts (1) that the coNT1NENTALs mar
gin of assets in of liabilities is approximately
ten times as great the average and t2t that it
normally earns nearly three times the dividends to
its polcyholders, fully warrant the company IN con-
tnuing to pay its polcyhoders the same large divi-
dends which have given it the reputation of being
Zone of the best dividend-pdying companies IN
America"
