It probably did so because it is really scientific in handling the matter of increasing farm prosperity. Better markets and cheaper service from the outside are fully as important in farm profits as correct production methods. In its issue for December, 1918, this paper ran- the following editorial on state hail insurance, which will interest Leader readers in general: “The old-line “insurance agents are chortling with glee over the announce- ment that owing to the excessive hail damage the state will be unable to pay the farmers in full for their loss. These same insurance agents who last spring organized to fight the farmers of the Northwest will do everything in their power to discredit the state hail insurance law and if possible se- cure its repeal. “Let us see.if the farmers would have fared any better had they in- sured with the old-line companies: Granting that the adjusters of the old liners had allowed the farmer full damages (which they seldom do), he would receive $10 for every one dol- lar paid in premiums. would cost him 10 per cent whether he was lucky enough to escape-a visi- tation or not. Now, if he insures with the state he will receive 60 per cent of his loss which has been liberally adjustéd by a neighbor farmer and not by a hired man of the insurance company. ‘For every dollar invested in premiums he gets $10 the same as he would had he insured with the old- line companies. and at the same time the farmer whq insures and escapes loss pays only 60 per cent of the amount defanded by the old liners. We can not see where our friends, the insurance agents, have anything to crow over, do you? ¢ “The excessive loss by hail this year will demonstrate the necessity for universal hail insurance. Every acre of - agricultural land should be as- sessed to create a fund to leave a reserve to take care of years like this when the damage happens to be ex- cessive. Will the Republicans, who are ‘pledged to “do something for the farmers,” oppose such a measure? Just watch their smoke and see if they do not line up with the junker press and the insurance trust.” The Montana state hail insurance His insurance . is some of that “just as good” legis- lation with which special privilege tries to quiet the farmers. It is fa- tally weak. in that it does not apply to all farmers liable to suffer losses from hail, in that it does not levy a flat land tax to cover at least a part of the cost, and in that it does not guarantee the farmer 100 per cent payment for losses. But in spite of these weak points which the anti- farmer gang-probably. thought would: kill it, it is better, as Campbell’s ‘Sci- entific Farmer. point§ out, than old- l?ne hail insurance.
