It Is estimated by Major Leo Moor

said the major, "but who Insure their

"In the insuring of grain, policies
are Issued on the yield per acre, the
price per bushel fixed at the prevail-

cents a bushel, would be insured for

In harvest work.

When he comes for his grain policy
he looks for the storm clauses. I re
member one man who refused at first
to take the policy because It said
nothing about protection from hall

"The grain is insured while stand
ing, during process of cutting, while
stacked, and In the sack and until
taken from the warehouse and placed
aboard cars. Most farmers cancel
their policies as soon as ther grain Is
warehoused, and then If it is to be
stored for any length of time, they
take out what Is known as warehouse
insurance, which Is a cheaper rate.
"Grain insured while standing Is
not worth as much as when sacked,
and most policies read that after the
crop is in the sacks it shall be worth
$2 an acre more.
"The rate of insurance is generally
the short rate of 4 per cent per an
