The farms of tho country contrib uted about onc-fouith of the man power of tho forces of the, United StatcH'engaged" in tho War. It is estimated that 1,300,000 men who served in the arm v. tho navy and the marine coin woio born and rcai od on American farms. A total of 1,:J.'S!),0I8 men took out War Risk Insurance, their ablegate policies totalling nearly $10,000,000 000 and each policy averaging $8,700. Of this total Insurance, service men from the farming districts carried an pioximatc'.y $10,420,000,000 and by far the greater poicontagc of this In surance was made payable to wives', mothcts and other lclativcs vhoro side on farms. ' The average age of tho men who fell in action, died of wounds, or from other causes during the war, was 2.'1 years, and because of their youth, by "far tho greater percentage weYc unmarried men. Which explains why 47 per cent of the policies taken out named mothers as beneficiaries, id per cent named fathers and only 7 per cent named wives. In the originul War Risk Act, pro vision was made for the policies writ ten on service men during the war to be continued as permanent Govern ment insurance. To avail themselves of the opportunity to convert their War risk insurance into permanent United States Government insurance it is necessary that the men discharg ed from the service continue to pay their monthly premiums, and at somo time during the fic years following the formal declaration of peace that they convert into a permnncnt policy. From the record it appears that only about twenty-five per cent of the men who had insurance during the war arc continuing to keep up their insurance. This is largely due to the f:irt that the men were unfamiliar with the provisions of tho act, or that they have not felt financially able to carry their insurance at this time. To guaul against any man losing his riirht to Government Insurance because of this condition, the Secre tary of the Treasury recently issued a rulinir allowing every man crghtcen months in which he has the opportun ity to reinstate his insurance after he hasjallowcd it to lapse because of noh payment of premiums. This reinstatement privilege should bo clearly understood. So long as a man is not paying his premiums he is not insured. His reinstatement priv ilntro merely gives him tho right to again have Government Insurance without undergoing physical examin ation, and upon the payment of two months premiums. A nation-wide campaign has been tnmiiriiralml for diicct personal con tact with service men through which they may be informed of their rights to peimanont Government Insurance, and in this campaign have been en listed tho American Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus, the Salvation Army, the Y. M. H. Ar, the Nov Scouts and numerous oilier national social welfaie oigani7ations. In addition more than fiO.OOO life in suiance agents have been enlisted. The volunteer roll further includes thousands of bankers, doctors, .aw ycrs, manufacturers, other business men and representatives of all asso ciations which come in contact with dischaiged men and their dependents. The former scivicc man who lives on tho farm will be reached to a large extent through banks which have ol untocred to serve as clearing hou-.es fm. infnrmntion on War Uisk tnsur- ancc. There arc six forms of government insurance, as follows: 1. 20-year endowment. 2. aO-ycar endowment. 20-payment life. 30-paymcnt life. Endowment at ago 62. Ordinary life. Applications aic being rccetod by the Buioau of War Risk Insurance for changing the piesent term Insur ance, which was isMied at the time of entering the .ervice, into the perman ent foims. Ten features which piominentiy stand out in the government policy aio as follows: 1. The total permanent disability clause is granted without cost to the insured and it is free from all restrictions. 2. Government insurance does not charee its nolicy holders and over head expense. 3. It contains an extremely iioerai definition of disability. 4. It gives very substantial pay ments. 5. It contains no ago restrictions. 6. . It is unrestricted as to travel, residence or occupation. 7. Premiums paid in advance are refunded down to the month, In case of death. 8. The policy is non-taxable. 9. Unusually liberal cash, loan, paid up insurance and extended term insurance values are included. 10. It participates In dividends. If tho policy holder is unable to keep the, full, amount of tho War Risk Insurance he' carried while in the ser vice, he may reinstate part of it from 1 THE RED CLOUD CHIEF Red Cloud, NobraaUoL ' MiliiaHBD EVERY THURSDAY - emend In the l'cxtonu ( tit Hnldi ud, .iM , a Hccond Clans Matter A.

Farm Bureau Notes 6 a CHOLERA KILLS FEWER HOGS According to records of the United States Depaitment of Agriculture for the 13 months from April 1, 1918, to April 30, 191D, hog cholera killed 2, 815,004 Tioga, valued at $62,042,688. 16, in the United States. This is the lowest loss by numbers for a similar period in the live-stock industry of the United States, but on account of tho high price of hogs, the monetary loss was heavy. For example, during the year ending Match 31, 1913, hogs numbering 6,064,470 and worth $58, 833,653 died from cholera, while tho next year the disease took 6,304,320 hogs worth $67,697,461.00. Department experiments show that timeliness in vaccinating hogs against cholera is all important. When ex- nrwrwl linc.4 wni-o vneplnatnd. while still apparantly healthy, losses were onlv 4 per cent, but when vaccination was deferred until the animals show ed external signs of sickness, losses averaged nearly 29 per cent. This shows that the man who puts off the preventive treatment until his hogsj are sick with cholera, stand only one chance in seven of prerenting fatal results. It is impoitant, also, to main tain h6g yards and barns in a clean and sanitary condition.
