FORCBOPS
By M. S. RLKEYSER
• NEW YORK, Aug. 4.—ls ri« ks
of farming, ahput which politicians
wail sympathetically prior to elec
tions, Are not avoidable, perhaps
thfey ars insurable.
Theodore H. Price, authority on
eotton problems, suggests a non
political remedy for the farmers
problems through Government, in
surance. “Insurance,” Price,
is publisher of Commtce and Fi
nance, points out, ‘is always writ
ten against rain. hail, tornadoes,
frost and the other metereologtcal
conditions that are unprop tious.
Why should it be impossib e for
the —farmer to insure himseir
against any injurious variaticn
from the normal in the weather.
Such insurance would eliminate
the greatest risks that he is com
pelled to face, and would put nis
industry upon a far safer basts
than at present.
Law of Averages
“Insurance is an application of
the law of average. There is noth
ing surer • than this law in Hs
operation, but the averages must
be ascertained before any conclu
sions based upon them can be
applied in the fixation of the pre
miums that should be charged
for assuming the risks insured
against.
“Most of those who have studied
the subject agree that it is practi
cable to insure the farmers against
hazards of the weather and the
market, but they are also agreed
that 4MB only by experiment that
the costq of such insurance can be
ascertained. .
“The is the one
agency that can afford to make the
experiment. It has already made
two ventures in the field of insur
ance. Both were successful.”
Not So Simple
The idea has the appeal of nov
elty, but it seems to * oversimplify
the problem. The purpose of
any insurance is indemnification
against loss. Before the farmer
could develop an Insurable risk, it
would be necessary to establish a
standard of costs and profits. That
would be tantamount to price fix
ing, fend would entail most of the
objectionable flavor of the McNary-
Haugen bill, which President Cool
idge twice vetoed and excoriated.
As an economical principle, how
ever, insurance against risk is a
wise step in the direction of a
higher economic civilization. In
telligent, large-scale farmers could
under existing facilities insure
themselves against price changes
through use of the cotton futures
market, and smaller farmers, by
banding together, could also do so.

Girl to Share Estate
Os Uncle She Never Saw
NORRISTOWN, Pa., Aug. I.—
Miss Emily Waterhouse, of Trenton,
heir to the estate of a father she
never saw, will receive a share of
an estate she heard of only a few
weeks ago from an uncle she never
saw and heard of only recently.
Albert Waterhouse, former mill
owner of Norristown, died intestate
in 1926. Administrators learned his
brother, George, had died in 1893
at Bordentown, N. .1., but did not
learn that a daughter, Mias Water
house. had been born four months
after his death. The estate was dis
tributed among the known heirs.
Miss Waterhouse met a resident
of Norristown. She learned of the
death of her uncle and that under
the law she was entitled to her
father’s share of the uncle’s estate.
The court recognized her claim
and redistributed the $16,000 estate.
Farmer and Daughter
Repel Man With Warrant

of issuing fruadulent checks.
County Detective George J. Ryan

city, went to the place with a war
rant charging resisting arrest and
pointing firearms. They came pre
pared for trouble, but Marsh was
decile and gave bail for court before
Justice of the Peace Daniels. His
daughter was not mentioned in the
complaint.
