newspapers report that DR.. Greutz-

STATE FUND IS
GROWING, eAvc
DEPT. MANAGER
Makes Slow But Persistent
Progress in Building
Up Surplus

The state fire and tornado fund
has made 'slow but rather persistent
progress" since it was established in
August of 1919, according to the
report by Harold Hopton, manager,
recently issued.
The fund was established by the
legislature of 1919 to provide for
the insurance by it Of all state, city,
school and other public property,
subject to fire and tornado for
amounts not to exceed 80 percent
Of the value Of. the property.
The premium income since the be-
ginning and up to the end.of No
vember, 1922, has amounted t.
$500, 493.3s, according to the report
and the net income to $338, 079y88.
A surplus of $26O,O72,13 remains.
The operating cost was $13,56l %
or &c percent of the gross income.
Progress has been made, says Mr..
Horizons letter of transmittal, with
out .'adding in any way additional
expense to the already overburden-
ed taxpayers of the state"
The money which tho political
subdivisions have paid for the in
surance protection on their property
is money. that they would have had
to pay out any way, for their in
surance, and so the surplus of more
than S260,O00 is clear saving, for
the Taxpayers, Mr.. Hopton asserts.
The introduction also points out
that criticism Of the law when
passed could not be wholly refuted
because no appropriation was made
for a reserve fund to back it up.
This difficulty has been partially
overcome by the reserve fund of
= more than 1888, OOO-$26O,O of
which is surplus-which has been
built up.
The present annual interest in
come Of the fund is $15,578.66 more
than three times the annual Operat-
ing expense which has not yet reach
ed $1,000.

An Official milestone for every city

ured Is the suggestion made by the
American Automobile Association.
The designation of an official central
point in each city and town by the
proper municipal or town authorities
will be of value commercially as well
as convenience to local and visiting
motorists. points out the A. A. A.
Every motorist will recall similar

A. :One sign may read eight miles
to Jonesville.' A mile farther on an
other sign may also read eight miles
to Jonesville.' Both signs may be
correct, depending on the point in
Jonesville from which the mileaCe
was taken. With an official milestone
and the mileage accurately measured,
the motorist would know definitely
the actual mileage to the center of
the town to or from which he is
travelling.
From a commercial standpoint an

information. A farm may be adver-
tised as being six miles distant from
