Flax Protected By Insurance Details of the flax insurance for the state penitentiary plant, voted at last week's meeting of the board of control, were ar ranged by the board late yes terday, The insurance, which will give maximum protection on a sliding inventory scale, will cost approximately $13,000 yearly. The Salem insurance firm of Beck and Wadsworth will han dle the insurance, which will be in force for three years. The state will have cancellation rights, the board said. Forty percent of the gross brokerage fee will go to the Oregon As sociation of Insurance Agents. The estimated maximum of coverage is more than $600,000. Purchase of $8,000 worth of laboratory equipment for the University of Oregon Medical school was deferred pending more detailed investigation. Members of the board agreed that all purchases of goods by state departments should be scanned carefully during the remainder of the biennium. The board agreed to ask an opinion of the attorney general as to the replacement value of state property destroyed by fire. The question arose after two claims had been presented, and the board wished to know whether they should be hon ored at the full market price of the equipment, or at its value at the time of destruction. Copies of the "Oregon Guide" may be sold to schools, state departments and libraries for $1.75, the board decided, in place of the original price of $2.50, In his experiments to develop the incandescent light, Thomas E. Edison tried cardboard and the whisker of a man's beard for filaments. Liberty h unu Dnni nrov urri gives vou... n ml ii uuurLicni mxrv condensed to one evening's reading time!
