SIMPLE MIXTORE MAKES HENS LAY By W. S. Burgess. Any poultry raiser can greatly in- crease his profits, easily and quickly, by taking advantage of the 35 years’ experience of a successful poultryman. A life long study of egg production has resulted in a secret formula of buttermilk and other valuable ingredi- ents that puts pep into lazy hens. Us- ers report increases of two to seven times as many eggs. This secret formula is now put up in tablet form and is called Combs’ Buttermilk Compound Tablets. Simply feed in water or mix with feed. I am so convinced that this wonder- ful formula is always successful that I say kill the hen that won’t lay after using it. . One million new users are wanted, so for a limited time any reader of this paper can get a big double size box (enough for a season) on free trial by simply writing for it. Send no money. Use the tablets 30 days; if at the end .of that time your hens are not laying 2 or 3 times ds many eggs; if you are not more than satisfied in every way ¢ the tablets are to cost you nothing. If completely satisfied this big double size box costs you only $1.00 on this introductory offer. Simplv send name —post card will do—to Milk Products Co., 106 Creamery Bldg., Kansas Ctiy, Mo., and the big box of tablets will be mailed immediately, post paid. 1 Hail Insurance North Dakota Plan Best, Gov- ernment Expert Shows ULLETIN No. 912 of the United States depart- ment of agriculture, just issued, entitled “Hail In- surance on Farm Crops in the United States,” re- views hail insurance laws passed by all states and shows that the North Da- kota 14w, passed by the Nonpartisan league administration, not only is the cheapest in operation, but protects more farmers than the laws of all other states combined. The bulletin, prepared by V. N. Val- gren, an expert on agricultural eco- nomic questions, says of the four states which had laws in operation during the year 1919: “The total risks of the four state hail insurance departments in opera- tion in 1919 were approximately $139,- 300,000, the premiums $6,095,000 and the losses $4,500,000. Of the total risks North Dakota had about 62 per cent, South Dakota 23 per cent, Ne- braska 14 per cent and Montana less than 1 per cent.” The North Dakota hail insurance cost farmers 28 cents for $7 worth of insurance, both in 1919 and 1920, or a flat 4 per cent rate, as compared’ with rates of 10 and '12 per cent charged by private insurance companies. The rates of other states, as cited by the United States department of agricul- ture, are as follows: South Dakota—Four districts with rates of 35 cents, 40 cents, 42 cents and 45 cents per acre, for $10 insurance. Average rate, 4.1 per cent. Nebraska — Three districts with rates of 25 cents, 40 cents and 60 cents per acre, for $10 insurance. Aveérage rate 4.2 per cent. N . Montana—State rate $1.20 maxi- Q f mum for $12 insurance. Maximum mfl_: levied in 1919. Rate, 10 per cent.

In Montana, with a state rate of 10 per cent, the private insurance rates are 10 per cent to 15 per cent. The saving under the Montana law at the most is only one-third of the private insurance rate. : In Nebraska the private insurance rates run from 4 per cent to 12 per cent and-the state rates from 2.5 per cent to 6 per cent. The state rates therefore run slightly more tha:n half of the private rates. In South Dakota the private rates run from 6 to'12 per cent, two-thirds of the state being in the zone at 8.per | cent or'less, and state rates range from 3.5 to 4.5 per cent, averaging 4.1 per cent, or slightly more than half of the private rates. . In North Dakota the private rate:is 10 per cent for most of the state, with .} a rate of 12 per cent in some western - counties. Therefore the farmers pay only two-fifths of the private rate in most of the state and in the western part pay only one-third. -Mr. Valgren states in the bulletin that the average expense of private companies is 85 per cent of the premi- ums collected. Of this 15 per cent is the usual commission, which has quite commonly been 20 per cent in the past. In comparison with this high ex- pense ratio the North Dakota hail in- surance department operated last year on an expense ratio of 3.17 per cent.
