Applications muBt be made before the wheat Is seeded. Local wheat growers may insure I their 1340 yields at 75 or 50 per cent of the normal or average yield assigned the farm as pro vided under the cro; insurance program. Wheat Insurance prem iums are determined on the same basis as the other insurance prem iums. That is, tiie premium is In proportion to expected losses. A i farmer with few losses will have to pay a smaller premium than an operator having a record of great er losses. Full Information on crop Insur ance as It applies to wheat may be secured at the agricultural con servation office, room 321, Perkins building, in Iloseburg.
