Crop Insurance
Protects + armers

Many wheat farmers of Ben
ton County are taking no chances
on crop failure in 1947. v. o.
Humphrey, who has been selling
Federal Crop Insurance through
the AGA office, reports that there
are 81 policies in force covering
9,526.1 acres of winter wheat.
Sometimes two policies cover the
same acreage but after deducting
the Implications there is a total
of 72,496.7 acres covered.
These farmers know that they
have an insured income for 1947.
In addition to the winter wheat
it is estimated that about 5000
acres of spring wheat is cover
ed by Federal Insurance. Policies
are now being written for the
years 1913, 40, so.
This is just another service Of
fered the farmer through the
AGA office. During 1916 Benton
County farmers were paid indem-
mites amounting to 12,484 BUSH
els of wheat.

door you ever saw" said Rec Nc

Cause of .Ree's rage was the fact
that while workmen had gone to
lunch from their work on DR..

the door. It had just been de-
livered that morning.
And he's backing up his COM
plant with hard cash. He will
pay $25 to anyone giving infor-

the information results in con-
viction.
Stolen before were a power saw
and spray machine. Rec can
understand that. But who would
steal glass door?"
Rec McReynolds is mad.
