Term insurance has many
advantages. It provides
maximum protection at
minimum cost. It is especially
useful for people like farmers
who are in business for
themselves.
This was part of the thorough
explanation of life insurance
presented to the senior
Agricultural students at
Centralia College this week by
Mr. Jim Sutherland, Director of
Agencies for the Sovereign Life
Assurance Co. of Canada. This
session was part of the Business
Management course at the
College.
Insurance is a cooperative
effort among a large number of
pecple each of whom agrees to
suffer a small loss in the form of
a premium payment to avoid a
catastrophic loss.
There are several reasons for
buying life insurance — final
expenses (burial, medical, death
duties), mortgage, readjustment,
family dependents, and widow's
life income.
All of these are protection
purposes. Life insurance is also
used as a form of savings — for
retirement and for educational
funds.
There are two basic types of
life insurance — term and
permanent. Term provides only
protection and pays off only in
the case of death or disability. It
is like property insurance. The
three main forms of permanent
insurance are ordinary or
straight life, 20 pay life and
endowment.

This is designed to let the
farmers of the area know what
the Ontario Farmers Union are
doing on their behalf.
Through the efforts of the
Ontario Farmers Union the
farmers of this area will
experience a considerable saving
on fertilizer this season.

early.
This is a good indication of
what can be done when the
farmers stick together. All Union
members should get behind their
purchasing committee and make
this effort really effective. The
committee has done a very good
job and are now working
forward in other commodities
necessary in the operation of

The final analysis er.ables the

his business and also show him
where weaknesses are and what
he may do to correct them.
To date, the Huron County

this week.
If anyone still requires his
Farm Account Book
summarized, it should be taken
to the Department of

Treflan is giving beangrowers the weed control
they need to help lower labour costs and achieve
better profits,
Ken Mailoux of Comber, Ontario, found the
worst weeds in his soybeans were pigweed and
lambsquarters. Now "Treflan is Controlling the
weeds very well," he says. ''This year, because of
all the rain, I haven't been able to rotary hoe, and
Treflan's really done the job for me."
says Ken Mailoux.
"Treflan gives me 100%
control of foxtail,
lambsquarters and pigweed,"
says Clifford Wildblood.
MR W. BRUCE NICHOL
Beangrowers find Treflan
ensures effective weed control.
"With this new Treflan,
we can grow beans
on dirty land as well;'
Clifford Wildblood farms a fertile clay loam that
can really grow white beans — and weeds — at
Chatham, Ontario, He's been using Treflan for two
years now "with very satisfactory tesOlts."
Clifford finds it pays to make sure Treflan is
properly incorporated in the soil before planting
time. And it's simple to do. "I work it in, disc both
ways before planting ... that's all," he says.
Treflan can help you achieve results like these.
