USE CARE IN PLACING
YOUR FIRE INSURANCE

During times of financial distress i
behooves the property owners to ust
as much care in selecting the company
in which they place their fire insur.
ance as they would in selecting the
bank with which they deposit theii
money.
A fire insurance policy is a promise
to pay at some future date in event
of certain contingencies, and the ques-
ton as to the ability of the company
to pay at that time is always before
us.
Fire insurance is largely transacted
by two classes of companies, those that
operated on the mutual plan and
stock companies. In the case of
mutual companies policy holders share
in the profits and losses of the con-
Germ and are usually subject to assess
ment If the premium income is not
sufficient to pay losses. Policy holders
OF stock companies are not subject to
assessment and look to the capital
surplus of the company for the pay
ment of losses.
There are many companies doing
business in this state that have been
time-tried and fire-tested.

island Angora Wool
Growers Organize

On last Tuesday evening group of
Angora rabbit breeders met at the
Scout Cabin to discuss the problem of
this new industry.
Mr.. w. l.. Campbell and Mr.. A. G.
Ullman of the Snohomish Angora AS
ISOLATION and Mr.. P G. Wilhelm, of
Edmonds were present. They present.
ed the plans of an organization to
cover the entire state, with the pos
sibility of a national organization
later.
This new association has a definite
market for a number of years. 1t was
pointed out that only by pooling the
wool can this market be reached as
the mills using the wool do not con-
slider buying from individuals, as few
growers produce a sufficient amount.
A number of articles made from
Angora wool were displayed. These
garments gave an adequate idea of
the warmth, comfort and durability
they possessed.
A shearing demonstration was given,
the Angora being supplied by Mrs. Lii
liam Warren, of Vashon. The quality
of wool from this animal was pro-
nounced excellent.
After careful study Of the methods
OF this organization and a study of
the constitution and bylaws it was
decided to organize local unit, and
the officers elected we're Ira Thompson
president and director and Geo. Leslie,
secretary and treasurer.
Those who signed up for member
ship were Geo. L. Leslie, A. D. Malet,
I. r. Thompson, S. r. Thompson and
Lillian Warren.
A number of others expect to en-
gage in this new industry and will
become members of this new cooper
alive group. 1t is felt that the grow
ing of Angoras has good future for
the conservative worker. 1t is i'm
possible to make a fortune in it quick.

possibility for those who desire good

PROTECT FARM MACHINERY.

With lower prices making 1t neces-
sary for farmers to economic, they
are turning to the care of machinery
as one way to 'reduce expenses. Sur
veys have shown that housed machin-
cry lasts Just about twice as long as
that which is exposed to the weather
says the United States Department Of
Agriculture.
Many farmers unable to put all theil
implements under cover are taking the
next best method of protecting then
from rust and other weather damage
This is by oiling metal parts. Imple-
ments such as plows, cultivators, ant
disks must have their working sur.
faces shiny to do good work ant
greasing them prevents rust. Intri-
cate parts of machines, such as the
knotter on binder, may be kept from
rusting by spraying or swabbing witt
oil. Machine oil or used crankcase OF
is good for this.
Careful cleaning will help preserve
some implements, even If they are lef
out in the weather. Grain and dus
often collect in corners in drills, grail
boxes, and combines. Cleaning thes
out helps prevent their rotting.

HOW HE GOT CLOVER.

Rock phosphate pays better diW-

ley's farm in vermilion county, III.
II had the soil in one field tested,
said Mr.. Finley, land found that 1t
needed one to four tons of lime an
acre. treated 1t with one ton of rock
phosphate an acre and got dandy
stand Of mixed clover. Every ton Of
rock phosphate contains 600 pounds Of
lime. The phosphate makes corn ma
ture earlier, gives better quality, and
I believe 1t pays better to buy the
rock phosphate than to spend the

School Boy Patrols
Organized This Week


Officer Earl Rammage of the state
highway patrol, was on hand Tuesday,
with the opening of school, to organize
the school patrol for the coming year.
School boy members were chosen in
five schools, the remainder will be
ready to report by Friday Of this week,
when Rammage will complete his or
ganization work.
It is a significant fact that vashon-
Maury Island was practically the only
area in the entire state In which no
children were injured during the past
year. This, Officer Rammage states,
is an indication of the excellent CO.
operation being given by Island teach
ers and parents in educating the chill
dren in conduct on the highways.
New signs are being put up at each
schoolhouse, and the drivers are asked
to slow down on reaching these signs.
between the hours Of and s. Prac-
tically the only complaint made last
year was carelessness Of drivers in
passing school buses. The buses are
all plainly marked and there is no
excuse for drivers not slowing down
when passing buses that are dis
charging passengers. The moment lost
in taking this precaution might easily
be the moment that would save the
life Of child

tuS or per cent.
A fact which may have some
interest to the speculative fra
ternity is that employment in
Photographic and miscellaneous
chemicals" declined 70 per cent,
despite an increase in New York
city.
The paper and pulp industry,
and printing and paper goods
trades both laid off men.
Figures IncOnclusive
But a hopeful indication is
the good rise in employment in
the making of brick, tile and
pottery. and in miscellaneous
stone and minerals" Does this
indicate any turn in building
activity?
In my opinion the evidence
is moderately encouraging, but
inconclusive. I find that sea-
sonal gains had been delayed in
some cases and that this may
have put August employment up
faster than usual without mark
ing a real turn.

INDUSTRY RAPS
U,S,R|VALRY

A protest against Government
competition with private industry
was registered before the Shan

facturers today.
Headed by B. L. Winchell, Of
New York, chairman of Reming-
ton Rand. Inc, and James, A.
Emery, counsel for the National
Association of Manufacturers,
the committee presented evidence
designed to show that Govern
ment competition is seriously i'm
pairing the stability of some
lines Of manufacture.
The committee urged that
naval repair work be done in
private navy yards. that produc-
ton of war materials by Federal
arsenalS be restricted, that Gov
eminent departments be pro-
hibited from competition with
private enterprise and that
American manufacturers be given
preference in purchase Of ma
terials.

BY LEWIS HANEY

Professor of Economies, New York
University
Perhaps you noted the report
of the New York State depart
ment of labor showing a gain
in factory employment last
month.
There was an increase in the
number employed of 80 per
cent, which is more than usual
for the season. Moreover, total
payrollS increased, indicating
that more hours of work were
done.
While the figures warrant
hOpefulneSs, they leave some
doubts, for they show the same
SpOttinesS which marks other
business data.
Better Than Seasonal
The biggest percentage gain in
employment in New York State
came in cotton goods factories,
the rise here amounting to over
81 per cent. Silk factories gained
SO per cent, and the next was A
per cent in women's headwear.
Women's clothing showed a AZ
per cent gain in factory workers,
mems clothing "a per cent.
These gains are partly sea-
sonal, of course, but they are
much above usual.
A large part of the New York
employment gains came in New
York city, where millinery and
needle trades are heavily concen-
trated.
Heavy Trades Slack
Leather, glass, and candy in
dustrieS also showed larger per-
centage increases.
But when we look at the "heav-
Ter" industries, the figures are
not so encouraging. For example,
iron and steel manufactures
showed a decrease of nearly 18
per cent in employees, although
last year in August the decrease
was only 3 per cent.
Automobile and airplane manu-
featuring laid off % per cent
of employees, against 10 per cent
year ago.

RAIL BOND LIST
UP IN MIXED
TRADING
BY MUNROE ROBERTS

NEW YORK, Sept. 20 GN.S0.
Considerable irregularity con-
tinued to pervade the bond
market in the early trading today.
Railroad bonds were slightly i'm
proved.
United States Government obli-
cations were mixed with evil
dences of profittaking coming
into the market following the
sharp rise of the past few days,
which lifted several issues to new
highs for the year.
Liberty fourth 4As were off
1892 at 103.10, the 3As gained 1872
at 1928, the 3ss gained 3-32 at
98.11, while the IS dropped 1872 at
96.31.
Moderate activity was seen in
the low-priced railroad obligations
and some fractional gains came
into evidence. Baltimore and
Ohio convertible 41as Of 1860 were
unchanged at 80, the st. Paul SIS
of 1000 lost a fraction at 10A,
while the Missouri Pacific As Of
1875 gained "a at 20h.
Nickel Plate IS due at the end
of this month were unchanged at
80, as were the Southern Pacific
41as of 1869 at 5524.
The industrial and utility list
was quiet and changes in the
group were fractional and failed
to reveal any definite trend.
