TO EX-SERVICE MEN
Tho attention of all cx-servlco
men should bo called to tho extreme
ly favorablo opportunity still open
to them to obtain war risk insur
ance Millions of dollars In insur
ance nro being carried by men, whoso
policies wero written when they wero
ia sorrlco, but many who wero then
written havo dropped out, largely
duo to Ignorance of Insurnnco In gen
eral and a reliance upon picking It
up within tho 18 months' period
provided for reinstatement.
It ought not to bo necessary to
explain to any man the benefits of
Insurance. It should bo posstblo to
tako that for granted. Tho protec
tion given to tho family, or tho ns
suranco of an lncomo in old ago pro
vided by insurance nnd endowment
policies aro so well understood that
no discussion is needed.
It Is necessary, however, to call
tho attention of ox-servlco men to
tho fact that on July 1 tho oppor
tunity for reinstatement ends, and
to urge that all who aro not now car
rying government Insurance arrango
for it by that time. In doing so
they will bo helping themselves In a
Tery practical way.
Tho following aro some of tho
especial features to which attention
la called at tho present time:
. 1. .A man aged 25, carrying $10,-
000 insurance at tho premium rato
of JG.G0 a month, may reinstate
$1000 doltars now by paying $1.32
with his reinstatement application
(6C cents being for the month of
grace In which tho assured was pro
tected after his insuranco had lapsed,
and tho other 6G cents Is for tho
present month.)
2. Tho total permanent disabil
ity clause provides for a monthly
payment whenever tho Insured Is no
longer ablo to follow any substan
tially gainful occupation, duo to any
Impairment of tho mind or body of
such a naturo that It will probably
contlnuo throughout the llfo of the
assured.
3. Tho war risk Insuranco can bo
converted to other forms of Insur
ance with tho government at any
time within five years from tho proc
lamation of" peace. These latter
forms, after tho first year, have loan
and cash values, paid up Insurance
and extended Insurance.

EDUCATION AND FARMING
Figures were published somo time
ago to show tho dollars nnd conts
value ot an education. It is not
necessary to repeat them. Those
who read thorn at tho time will re
momber their showing that tho
farther a pupil advanced through the
upper grades, tho more his earning
'power Increased. Tho results ot tho
Investigation which produced tho fig
ures wero to show most vividly how
dcsirablo education was as an aid to
success In life.
Now Information of tho samo na
ture, as applied to farming success,
has been gathered by n farm survey
in Missouri. The report ot tho sur
vey 'points out, says Professor Scud
der of O. A. C, that tho young man
going into farming usually has to
servo a period ot apprenticeship ns
renter before ho is nblo to own his
own farm. This period Is very much
shortened by good education.
How this works is shown in tho
Missouri fnrm survey. Of 218 part
owners, those with common school
education only had rented for eight
years, those with high schodl educa
tion, flvo years, nnd those with col
lege education 2.8 years.
"Ono of the chlof values of educa
tion Is tho moro rapid progress mado
by tho trained man when ho steps
Into his chosen Industry," says Pro
fessor Scuddcr. "It appears from
tho survey that tho young man with
high school training expends only a
little mora than half as much tlmo
In tenancy as tho roan with tho com
mon school education. The man
with the college training succeeds to
farm ownership In almost half the
time of tho high school man."

Recent heavy sJumpi In the hog
market, as well ns tho high prices of
corn, havo caused hog miners In vn
rlous parts of tho country to reduce
the number of sows In their herds, ac

raising on tho farm should bo made n
stable, rcgulnr bushiest, department
specialists believe. Tho man begin

One source of failure Is that too

than ns n business. They plunge on
hogs Just ns they would gamble on

Operations ot this diameter nro never

of the recent decline In the hog mar
