Grain this year is about 2 Vz times more valuable than a year ago. Yet Im sure that many farmers are still insuring at last years values. Recently a Western farmer suffered a large loss on grain that he had insured at last years values. Con RAISE HYDROPONIC TOMATOES, green beans, cucumbers, peppers, and other vegetables year round for the wholesale market in the amazing Everlovin all 00 BMUKglK sequently, he received only about 40 percent of the loss. Insuring to value is a term that farmers as well as other businessmen should understand and appreciate. Even though a tractor gets older every year, the price for used tractors rises because of inflation. A piece of equipment may be worth more today than it was a year ago; if it is, the owner should increase the insurance on it. Take an afternoon off, put your wife in the car with you, and drive around for a pricing tour on new homes. The experience will make you realize in a hurry what the inflationary trends in values are.

Gals, lets make it our mission to explain food prices to all our friends. Farmers have been alarmed at consumer reaction to food prices, the flyer says. At a time when wages have gone up faster than food prices, farmers found it hard to understand why consumers boycotted buying simply because food prices had risen somewhat, catching up to rises in prices of other things we all buy. It will help farmers when subsidies are gradually lowered, then taken off of farm products altogether. With the new farm bill, it wont happen soon. Many city people dont understand that a lot of other things they buy are subsidized also. 34 Ton Ranger paint, e when you buy insurance, not when you have a loss. If hay is worth $50.00 a ton, is it wise to insure it for $30.00? If com is selling for $7.00 a hundredweight, should you save premium by insuring for $4.00? To buy the lower coverage is a gamble, and the whole idea of' ' insurance is to avoid a gamble. Many people dont understand, on fire insurance on a house, for instance, that payment for a loss is made at the same percentage as coverage of the value. If a $20,000 house is covered for $10,000 and has $6,000 damage in a fire, what is the insurance payment? $6,000 because the coverage is above that figure? No, since the coverage is for half the value of the building, the insurance company will pay half the loss, or $3,000. To get payment up to the full amount of loss on a homeowners policy, the insurance must be for at least 80 percent of the total value From The Women's Chairman (c These are important times for farmers-an- d their wives.
