Who sense their obligation to provide
for old age or their dependents. This
describes in few words the Nation
al Life Insurance Company, Mont
pelier, Vermont, whose progress dur
ing the past year adds another fifty
million dollars to the proection of
American homes,-some of it for the
protection of the wife, some for the
children, or for their education, much
of it to provide for an income when
the earning power subsidies or when
disability overtakes.
1t has taken seventy-two years of
continuous progress to build and
develop this bulwark of Thrift,
Mutual Protection and independence,
all belonging to the policyholders,
whose combined savings now amount
to S78, 292, $4,000 of the highest grade
trust fund investments. This amount
exceeds all liabilities by S3,749, 42O.64,
held as a surplus or guaranty to
cover every contingency Since the
organization of the company its
policyholders or their beneficiaries
have received 125,901 ,8715S, which
with the assets now to their credit
amounts to over sixteen million more
than they have paid in premiums.
The year 1921 was so successful,
from the standpoint Of mortality and
interest savings that there will be
returned to policyholders during 1922
over three millions of dollars in
dividends as declared by the direc-
tors at the October meeting.
Young people are inclined to feel
that they can secure the benefit of
insurance protection at any time, but
during the past year over seventeen
hundred applicants for admittance to
the company were declined as I'M
insurable. The care with which the
company selects its insurance risks
and its investments make the results
shown in the published report pos
sible, and every Vermonter should be
proud of the accomplishment.

TESTING CATTLE RESULTS, IN

Gently collected by the United States
Department of Agriculture from in

work in various parts of the country.
The inspectors were asked to supply
figures on the results of three or
more tests on badly diseased herds,
those that had not less than 10 per
cent of reactors on the first test.
The first test on more than $4,000
cattle in these bad herds showed that
26 per cent had tuberculosis. An
ether test in six months later on the
same herds, from which the re-
actors had been been removed, show
ed only So per cent of the disease.
By another six months the per-
centage had gone down to 2.8. A
fourth test on more than $4,000 of
these cattle showed only 1.8 per cent

The reports from which these

normal conditions herds very badly

also show that eradication work can
