Of this amount, about 3.000 acres, or about 12 per cent of the potato acreage, have been in sured. Rosen explained that there is a deadline of Wednesday, May 15. for potato insurance. He reports farmer acceptance has been Rood in this area and across Southern! Idaho, another potato area. Insurance covers any kind of damage from natural disaster causes and not damage due to malfeasance or bad farming. Such things as frost, pump fail ures, irrigation damage and dis eases such as verticillium will and fusarium eumartii arc covered by this insurance. The insurance is on the production costs and not on the profit factor, and the amount of coverage varies accord ing to acreage and quality. The largest share of the potato cov erage in the area, Rosen reports, is based on 150 sacks per acre as well as quality guarantee of tH) per cent No. Vs. Rosen cites the experience of the federal corporation in the pilot county of the west in Bingham County, Idaho, Here, he said, the corporation paid out $250,000 last year while it has taken in only $120,000 on premiums. However, he indicated that the tables usual ly are set up so that out of $1 in premiums, about 00 cents is paid out in loss claims. Additional information on fed eral crop insurance on spud and small grain coverage can be ob tained from the local ASC office or from Emery Gentry or Don Rohn, Crater Lake Motel. 5 Klamath 4-H'ers Given Recognition Selected as counlv winners, five Klamath 4-H'Ci's will receive rec ogmtion for outstanding club work as a part of the National t-H Awards Program announced Rev Hower and Francis Skinner, county extension agents.
