AIS contracts in the previous year.
Payments to hospitals and doc

1947 reflected an increase OF more
than so percent over benefits paid
in 1916. Last year more than 10000
persons received better than 133,-
600 days of care. Hospital and sur
gical expenses amounted to $1,734.-
$40.
The gain in cost was caused prin-
cipally by soaring hospital rates,
now 100 percent higher than in
1912, and 35 to "A percent above
1916. The jumps have resulted in a
hike in subscribers payments, eff

Poison Hazards

Seven livestock poisoning haz-

Valuable livestock may be lost,
the organization declared, unless
farmers are careful to protect their
stock against these dangers:

especially, are subject to this
danger.

widely used, these should be
checked to determine whether they
contain substances poisonous 10
stock. If they do, they should be
handled accordingly.
"(5) GrasshOpper pOisOns. Arse

to control grasshOppers. It should

cases of cattle poisoning from this
cause have been reported"
If a suspected case of poisoning
occurs, farmers were urged to call
their veterinarian Immediately.
"Emetics and other treatments may
