DOUBLE WHEAT INSURANCE

The great increase in wheat crop
insurance over the 1913 program as
sures a favorable quality of insur-
ance risks, as every county in the
state is now represented with much
larger share of the total acreage. The
4,402 applications covering about
500 farms is more tEan twice the
1850 applications covering 1928
farms insured against wheat crop
loss in 1943 Maryland is close to
the top in percentage of insurance
increase among the wheat growing
states. In the 1943 program wheat
insurance was carried by only IA OF
the 23 counties now included. This
wide base makes it far les3 likely
that any local catastrophe to the
wheat crop could eat up all the funds
provided Through the insurance pro
gram.
Carroll County leads in number OF
applications with 69S, followed by
Frederick, 622; Talbot, 439; Kent
347; Dorchester, 337; Baltimore,
259; Hartford, 203; Montgomery
1873; Queen Anne's, 1872; Howard
1883; Washington, $50; Caroline
1877; Cecil, 120; Anne Arundel, los;
Garrett, 81; Prince Georges, rs; St
Mary's and Charles, both So; Wor-
cester. SO; Somerset and Wicomico

Largest sign-up in the 1943 insur-
ance program was in Frederick
County, with 451 applications.
