Crop Insurance Goes
Into Effect 1899

Crop insurance which will guar
artee insured wheat growers three
fcurths of an average wheat crop
in 1899 will cost farmers of Pinal
county. an average of about 3 bu-
shells per acre, it was announced
today by K. X. Heness, county agri-
cultural agent. For insurance that
guarantees one half of an average
crop, the rate will average / bu-
shells per acre.
The county rate reflects the ay-
erage per acre loss in Pinal county
during the ten years, 1926-35. The
premium that an individual wheat
grower will have to pay for insur
ance will depend half on his coun-
ty rate and half on the crop losses
on his own farm. The rate for each
farm will be computed in the branch
office of the corporation.
The average yield per acre for
the county during the 10-year period
was 19.1 bushels. However, the cost
of insurance is not based upon the
average amount of yield, but on
the year to year variations in yield.
Two farmers with the same aver
age yield for the 10-year period
void not necessarily pay the same
premium for the same percentage

NEED A CHANGE

We can be around a thing and
use a thing and believe a thing so
much that we come to way OF
believing that we cannot do without
it. If one could make a sudden and
definite break away from that thing
one would discover that possibly
the whole business was not only
unnecessary but undesirable. War
is such a thing. Prejudice is such
a thing. Fear is such thing. The
need of nations today is to move
few steps forward out of the sound
and rattle of guns, swords, roaring
fighting planes and putting battle
ships and to get the minds on
something positive. We believe
most people have already moved up
those few steps. Just because the
militarists have had the world by
the tail in the past is no reason
why we should continue to let them
have it.
People who continue to argue for
the necessity of war are "tail-end-
ers" in the great procession. They
are looking back, not forward.
NOT REPRESENTATIVE
Our week was ushered in with
the news of the finding of the body
of the Lavine boy, kidnapped in
New York state about a month ago,
and the announcement of a new
kidnap case in Florida. These two
cases might be pointed to as proof
that man is still a terrible animal.
But it only proves that some men
are. These cases are news because
they are the exception, not the rule

The premium a farmer pays
covers only the actual cost of the

NO CHANGE

the extravagant statement that
mn has not changed in the thou
san is of years of history" The
only thing wrong with the state
ment is that it is not true-unless
you qualify it somewhat. Emotion
aly he has not changed. His heart
aches, joys, sorrows, ups and
downs of spirit are the same-al-
ways will be- But otherwise he is a
much different animal to what he
was several thousand years back.
When we consider the doings OF
some of our man power, the will
to light, TO kill, to destroy, we some
time think he hasn't changed much.
He was savage then and we must
admit that there is a lot of venee.
in our civilization even yet. But j.
is not all veneer.
When we see our nations in tn,
picture, parading around with al
their war trappings and followins
a program of prejudice, suspicion
hate, we are apt to point to thesO
as proof that man is still creature
OF the jungles. Most of us are not
willing to admit that these bullie5
represent the human race They
belong to it but they are the tail
enc and not the front of the pro
cession. We tolerate them because
we have not been able, thus, far,
to shake them loose and go off and
leave them. They are the ball and
chain" of our civilization. Along
with them are those feeble minded
persons who have not learned yet
that crime, like war, is a part of
the cast off clothing of mans pro
gress. But these do not represent
"man."
ON OOR WAY
Ii you say that man has not
changed in a thousand year that
would be alright A thousand years
is too small a measure to use to
reveal much progress. And yet, even
in a thousand years there is much
that puts the lie to the other state
ment.
So long as We point to territorial
conQuests, wars, war equipments,
prejudice and hate as marks OF
what we are will feel discouraged
about the human family But these
do not tell the story of progress.
They tell only of the miscarri-
age of progress

quests, and rewrite them, filling the
pages only of the stories of our

the accomplishments of our present
time, we would feel better about
ourselves.
The rank and file of the human
family, we believe, is marching
their faces toward the sun. We be-
lieve that 80 per cent of the people
in our civilized" lands are much
more interested in cars, trains,
bridges, radios, great buildings.
sanitary systems, proper living con-
ditions, the seeking of knowledge,
the desire for understanding and
peace and good will than they are
in wars, hate, prejudice, misunder-
standing and stealing. And because
they are more interested in such
things is proof plenty that they
have changed and will continue to
change.
