GOATS AND INSURANCE.
You'd Hardly Think the Two Wr go
latod, but They Are. ,
Everybody knows something about
Insurance. Almost everybody carries
some life, accident. Are, fidelity, plate
glass. pnrtnersLilp, - burglary, niarlno
or what not and many occasionally
find the payment of the reRUlarly re
curring premiums a heavy tax. bow
ever greatly they may appreciate the
advantages- of holding tbe policies
Everybody .""'known' . something about
goats, but fpw . woniri tblnlr of asso
ciating goatM with 'Insurance or of ac
quiring gonts with a view to reducing
the niiiount of their premiums. Vet
a lui'ge contriit'tlnK Qrui In Kansas
City keeps u. herd of Angora goats for
that very purpose. i :
The compuiiy's yards ' cover : (nany
acres of ground, unci the buildings and
other' equipment thereon represent an
Investment ' of sevoral hundred thou
sand dollars. . , When the yards were
first established the .weeds and other
vegetation on the property were con
stdered by the underwriters to be dou-
gerous tire: hazards, so mucb so that
the rates charged ' were . almost pro
hibitive. It was agreed.; however, that
if the weeds were kept down - the
premiums would be greatly reduced.
But the cost of mowing the weeds
and cutting down the undergrowth
would have been In Itself no Jncon
slderable Item In the yearly budget.
The company accordingly bought
flock of Angora goats and turned them
loose In' the extrahazardous yards.
The goats now keep the yards cropped
as close as a mowed lawn and not
only save the firm a large amount an
nually In fire insurance premiums, but
thrive so well on the objectionable
Vegetation and multiply so abundantly
that they have actually returned a con
slderable profit on tbe amount of the
company's capital that their purchase
represents. Detroit Free Press.
