eral crop insurance premiums
only the cost or losses with the
federal government standing the
cost of overhead to bring to
wneat producers an income suf
ficient to pay cost of production
and a living regardless of de
struction to the crop by natural
enemies. Lower premium rates
and higher yields for alt wheat
farms in the county for 1947 re
flect Morrow county s recent
highly productive years with
small loss from natural causes
The program was introduced
into Morrow county anew last

142 farms were signed for the

signed these contracts are can
celling them by signing the new
1947-48-49 contract which gives

ed for 1947.
