'In 1881 six business men lunch

they paid too much for fire insur-

six ten thousand dollar fire insur-
ance. That's all there is To recipro-
cal Insurance. II has grown until
it includes every line of busincss.
There arc over two hundred recip-
rocal companies in the United states.
They carry 20 per cent OF all the
insurance carried. Within ten years
they viii carry so per cent OF all
Insurance carried"
The reciprocal companies arc fight

by merely defending their companies.
They are attempting to forte thru

RATION FOR EGG PRODUCTION
Combination Of Corn, Bran, MIddIinss
and Tankage Is Recommended
for Hen Flock.

A practical ration for good egg pro
duction is mash and scratch grains az
follows: Make up a grain ration of 1s
pounds of corn and pounds OF mash.
Mix up 0 pounds of bran. 5 pounds OF
middllngs and 3 pounds of tankage.
The birds should eat the Is pounds OF
mash while consuming the % pounds
of scratch grain. II meatscrap is used
In place Of tankage, use 31s pounds,
since 1t contains 10 per cent less pro.
tein. Feed only one-third of the daily
grain ration in the morning In deep
litter. This encourages the hens TO eat
the mash. With scratch feed, fill up
their craws just before they go to roost
and this should last them about twelve
hours.

MUCH FARM PRODUCE
IS MARKETED DIRECT
Many Farmers Are Making Good
Use Of Motortrucks.
Producers Living Near Cities often
Can Sell AdvantaseousIy to Con-
sumers-MiddIemsn's Profit
Is Eliminated.

A large amount of farm produce Is
marketed by the use Of motortrucks.
While a relatively small amount Of
this marketing Is done direct TO con-
sumers, many persons have made use
Of motortrucks in their direct market
Ing. Producers who live near to cities
often can market advantageously d.
rect to consumers II they obtain or
ders for sufficient produce at one time
TO warrant the use of a truck. This
can be done especially In seasons when
consumers desire sufficient apples. po-
tatoes and similar articles for a win
ter's supply.
A man who lives near Providence
X. l., for several months every autumn
obtains orders for sufficient produce
to require two or three trips a week
with mOtortruck. His orders are OBJ
tained from old customers and by ad-
vertising. Double or return postal
cards are sent to old customers. The
first half of the card gives informa-
tion and prices, while the return card
bears the address of the producer on
one side and an order blank on the
other. All that is necessary for the
consumer TO do is to fill out the blanks
with proper quantities, prices and
total amount. sign his name and ad-
dress, and mail the card.
New customers are obtained by the
recommendations of old customers and
by advertising. Small but attractive
advertisements are placed In newspa-
pers. Consumers are requested to or
der by postal card OF telephone. Pay.
ment for produce is collected upon de.
livery.
The loads Of produce average about
one ton in weight. Apples, potatoes
and cider are the principal articles
sold. About Is or 20 stops on routes
about % miles in length are made in
disposing of load of produce.
This method Of marketing requires
more time than to market wholesale.
but many persons who are located fa
vorably, can market in this way at
slight additional expense and deliver
to the consumer produce which is load.
ed at the farm and not handled until
II Is delivered in the consumers cellar.
In this way less waste occurs than In
many other methods Of marketing.
