Like any other insurance, we're glad we did'nt have to collect, but it was nice to have the protection—just in case. This year, we intend to insure again." J. M. Fraser, Spring 'corms Holsteins, Streetsville What about you? — Are you going to take a chance this year? Are you willing to gamble you'll have a good crop that yields a proper return on your investment of time, money and effort? ,What if your wheat is hit by winter-kill? Or hail? Or flattened by wind ? Yields could be down so low it could mean financial disaster. Are you able to take the risk? You don't have to, Protect yourself, your crop and your farm future with low-cost crop insurance. The deadline for applications for winter wheat insurance is Oct. 1st — or 10 days after seeding — whichever comes first. And remember crop in- surance premiums are income tax deduct- . ible.

Three weeks before and after September 20th is the crit- ical period for cutting alfalfa in Huron County. When the alfalfa is cut or grazed in this critical period the stored food reserve declines for about three weeks at which, time the accumulated effects of severe frosts have kil- led the leaves and thus prevent- ed reserve replenishment. Such alfalfa goes into the,winter with the lowest possible food reserves and is therefore very subject to winter kilL- Fall Fertilizer applications will help insure against winter kill? 100-200 lbs. per acre of Treble superphosphate will give you a good hay crop next year. 200.300 lbs. per acre of 9-26- '20 will also help insure a good hay crop next year.
