Shelby County Insurance of Wheat Crop Results in $20,000 Payment in 1921 Wayne county fanners are manifesting much interest in an . unusual crop Insurance plan which received its first severe test in Shelby county this summer. About 20 wheat growers of the county took out insurance on their wheat fields last year and losses paid them this summer on damage to wheat from various causes amounted to $20,000.

Numerous applications for insur

ance are being received this year by

the company as a result of the past

year's record. The premiums are 9

per cent of the amount insured for.

The fields last year were insured for

from $16 to $18 per acre, which covered the cost of all operations, including plowing, discing, seeding as well as the cost of the seed. No insurance will be written this year until the wheat is up and can be inspected. The insurance covers loss by flood, drought, insects, and disease, and is written for a specific sum per acre rather than for a certain yield in bushels per acre, thus providing insurance against market losses. Tenants and owners each may insure their half of the crops separately from the other.

Birtl

Wait Till Winter to Wage More War on Chinch Bags i Farmers whose crops have Buffered the past summer from chinch bugs are urged to wait until winter to burn

over fence rows, ditch banks ami similar places where the bugs ar- , accustomed to spend the cold weather,;

instead of burning them this summer, as many are said to be doing. Prof. J. J. Davis, head of the en

tomology department of Purdue University, points out that burning this summer is valueless in controlling this pest, as most of the bugs will not seek these places until fall. Burning of the fence rows now will not exterminate the hibernating places, but will destroy the dead undergrowth necessary, for thorough and successful burning next winter.

NEW MADISON, O Mr. and Mrs. Frank Wright are parents o a daughter, born Tuesday.
