CLOVERLAND co. MAKES
PROMPT SETTLEMENT

The following letter from Peter
Miskovitz, who suffered the loss Of
his barn and contents March 1, indi-
Gates the liberality and promptness
with which losses are adjusted and
paid by the Cloverland Farmers Mu-
tual Rodded Fire Insurance Company
of Hancock, who carried a policy Of
$1,000 on his place.
This company is composed entirely
Of upper peninsula farmers and only
insures farm property andotherefore
can never have any tremendous cor
flagration losses. It's rates are pro-
portionately lower than azy ether
farm mutual and it pays 100Ro losses
to buildings and 900 on personal
property.
L'Anse, Mich, July 18, 1922.
To whom it may concern: 81
On the 1st day Of March suffered
a loss Of my barn and contents which
/ had insured in the Cloverland Farm
ers Mutual Rodded Fire Insurance
Company Of Hancock for 5000, be-
sides insurance of farm personal.
I notified the company through Mr..
Westphal, who promptly came out
and adjusted the loss at $501.14,
which was very satisfactory to pe.
On the 9th Of March received the
entire insurance on nv harm amount
ing to $500. According to my policy
/ could not expect pay before thirty
to ninety days. On the 9th Of May
l received $50 on the personal prop
erty loss and on July 18th the COM
pany sent me a check for the balance
amounting to S151.14. ! wish to
thank the company for their prompt
and liberal settlement in this matter.
Very truly,

REGIONAL GRANGE
MEETING SUCCESS


at the Baraga County Fair grounds
on Wednesday afternoon under the
auspices Of the State Grange and
Seward Pomona Grange with a splen-
did program Of speaking and music,
was decided success.
The large. and attentive audience
who listened to the several excellent
addresses by the noted speakers and
sweet-voiced singer were gathered
from Ontonagon, Houghton, Menomi-
nee and our own county.
REPRESENTATIVES of the Chambers
of Commerce of Calumet, Hancock
and Houghton were present as an ev-
idence of the willingness and desire
of the cities to cooperate with the
country in building up our commun-
tiles and our country. The Grange is
a potent factor in building country
life and the results of its many years
of effort is recognized and acAnowl-
edged. Demonstrating its intention
and purpose of getting behind every
organization whose object is to de-
velop our country and its people, the
u. p. Development Bureau was ac-
tive in advertising these regional
meetings and made every endeavor
to make them successful. Their gen.
ial and efficient secretary-manager
George E. Bishop Of Marquette, in a
concise but splendid talk giving sta
tistics of Baraga county to support
his statements, present the subject OF
agriculture in Cloverland.
The Hon. John G. Stone, circuit
Judge, who has consistently support
ed agricultural measures and move
ments in Houghton county for many
years and who has been member
Of the Grange in that county working
with the dean of all Grangers in the
u. P.-Leo M. Geismar," delivered a
splendid address.
In between the heavier numbers on
the program were songs by the sweet
voiced singer, Mrs. Mildred Roms-
dahl-Bruns of Calumet, who was ac-
companied by Mrs. King, pianist The
hearty encores and prolonged ap-
plause attested the appreciation Of
the entire audience for her several
songs. The community singing led
by Mrs. Bruins was an enjoyable part
of the days entertainment and every
one who sat Lrder the beautiful pines
in the grove at the Fair grounds and
took part in i. will feel just little
more warmly of america is my own
country, 1t is home, my home"
With all these good things pre-
ceeding and leading up to the chief
speaker for the day, Mrs. c. H. An
derson, deputy state Grange Master
for the U. p, introduced Sherman j..
Lowell, National Grange Master. He
is a man of national renown and this
district is favored in being allotted
the three days he set aside for Mich
igan. In his simple, straightforward
pTcScutalioh VI tiS oidHSC anu WldI
it means, he tried to give his hearers
better idea of the Grange. He said
too often the idea of "co-operation
was to get something from some
where for nothing" With his humor-
orous sallies and pithy statements he
kept all interested right up to his
closing statements.
The program came to a close with
community singing and the many
words of appreciation show that in
these get-together meetings much
good is accomplished.
The Boy Scouts gave demonstra-
tion of first aid, and the sports pro-
gram was carried out as planned.

There is no country here below that cam pro-

no time to die. pitched my ;ent beside the sea
and watched the pillows wild and free and
thought at last I'd found a place designed to
soothe the human race. And then | saw fog
bank creep from out the reaches of the deep; the
fog was gray and dank and cold, as clammy as
the graveyard mold; it soaked into my bones
and thews, and filled my organs and my shoes.
and rheumatism climbed my frame and broke my
heart and left me lame. built myself a little
shack upon mountains rocky back; and there
the air was pure and sweet, the view was fine

nameess varmints to their dens bore off my Po.

grow wherever you may be, if you don't rake
around to find some sorrows to disturb your

PUTTING ON THE SCREWS

The Daytona Daily News is of the opinion that
a successful and thorough prosecution of the con-
hdence men and crooks now infesting Florida and
rreying on many foolish mortals whose greed for
uneaned gold blunts and dulIs their common
sense, strictly up to the county authorities where
these men are operating. The News furthermore
calls on Governor Hardee to go all the way in
insisting en- these county authorities doing .heir
full duty in apprehending and furnishing this army
of undesirables, alleging and charging mat it is
largely due to slackness and even to cooperation
between Florida citizens and the con men that big
deals are put over. There can be no denying the
fact that in certain counties there has been more
or less connvance with the crooks and were it not
tor the publicity given by the newspapers to the
misdeeds of this army of ghouls, the depredations
on the suspectng and the unsuspectng would be
much more extensive than at present is the case.
1t may be remarked that Governor Hardee stands
for the arrest and conviction of all caught carry
ing en- this program of what amounts to highway
robbery.
