than ever before. according TO a report
made public today by Jesse s. Phillips.
state superintendent OF insurance,

cent for the first quarter OF 1918 over

epidemic last year, which caused many
persons to obtain Insurance 20 protect
them against such hazards in the
future.
So great have been the gains that
eight New York companies may have
to refuse business after October /.

by Mr. Phillips. they will reach the

BANKS GAVE SPLENDID
AID In LOAN DRIVES
Public Should Now Help Them In
Their Efforts To Make Country
Even More Prosperous.
BY Carter Glass, =.
Secretary of the Treasury.

secretary OIL Tue treasury.
No group of men in the. United
States measured up to the test of the
great war more admirably theu did
the bankers. The success Of the Unit
ed States Treasury Department in
floating over $21, 1,OOO,O0O,OO0 in Liber-
ty Bonds and Victory Notes during
the last two years was due in no small
measure to the patriotic cooperation
of the banks. They took most ac-
tive part in each Of the loan cam
paigns.
They subscribed generously for
themselves, made loans to their Gus
toners in order that they might buy
bonds, and sold bonds on installments
to accommodate those having small
savings. In other words, the banks
did everything possible to promote the
sale and distribution of government
securities.
The banker can render an equally
great service in reconstruction by co
operating with the government in its
movement to teach the people Of the
United States the lessons of sound f.
nance and wise investment. In pro
noting this cause the banker will aid
his institution and the financial sit
uation in general at the same time.
Now that the war is over the Heo-
pie should be impressed with the wig
dom of holding their government Sc
curities and also Of purchasing more,
from time to time. The more gener-
ally the people of the United States
absorb government securities the
greater will be the ability of the COM
mercial banks to devote practically
all Of their resources to furnishing
adequate credit to the commerce and
industry of the country.
Providing short-time credit to com:
merce and industry is their normal
peace-time function. The sale and
movement Of farm crops, manufac-
tuped products and other commodities,
as vell as the continuous and efficient
emplt yment of labor, in fact, the whole
Industrial process will be promoted by
perm :tting the commercial banks to
devo.e all their resources to this
function.
The people Of the United States
should, therefore, be encouraged to
pay OF their installments and borrow
ings on bond collateral as rapidly as
possible, and also to purchase addi-
tsenal government securities as is-
nued from time to time or in the mar
ket. II this is done the people Of this
country will be benefited in a two
fold way. They will free material and
labor for the production of commodi-
tics which are now so desperately
needed the world over. At the same
time they will be strengthening them
selves financially.

GRAIN CONSUME
VARIES DURING YEAR
Feeding of Oats Is More Uniform
/ Than That of Corn.
Barley, Wheat and Rye Approach
Monthly Uniformity in Degree Less

j High Point in February.

kPrepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Whether the supposition is that the
consumption of corn by live stock on
farms in the United States varies
little from month to month, or that
the summer consumption is relatively
small, the fact, as ascertained by the
bureau of crop estimates, United
Estates department of agriculture, is
that during the six months from May
Ito October nearly three-eighths of the
years corn ration is eaten, and from
November to April fve-eighths. The
warm-weather fraction will seem large
or small according to the size Of the
lguess. Oats, more than corn, is the
feed from April to September, and the
monthly consumption Of oats is more
iuniform throughout the year than that
|of corn. Barley, wheat and rye ap-
Iproach monthly uniformity in degree
less than that of cats throughout the
year and concentration of consump-
ton in the colder months is found in
hay, silage and mill feed as in the
lease of corn.
Il OF the years entire consumption of
corn by live stock on farms the high
lest consumption in one month is. 11.5
iper cent in December, and the lowest
j4.6 per cent in August. For oats the
highest is 9.s per cent in April and the
lowest 6.S per cent in December; bar
LEY, highest 10.9 per cent in November
land lowest 6 per cent in June and also
I'm July; rye, highest 1913 per cent in
October and lowest IL per cent in
July; wheat, highest 11.4 per cent in
November and lowest 5.S per cent in
July.
Mill feed consumption sags to 4.S
per cent in July and rises to 11.5 per
lcent in February and again in March.
More unequal yet is hay consumption,
with its range from the highest, 14.2
per cent in February and also in
March to 3.2 per cent in August; and
;another degree is reached by silage,
ithe consumption of which rises to 1853
per cent of the years total in Febru-
llary and falls to 1 per cent in July and
iagain in August.
