[Special < Nwri'-'punth ju r.;
The jrrnugf came inl:» c\:; : :'"ce to
moot the wants of rural le.ipie. It con
tinues to exist because it li;;s been
mooting the wants of the farmers.
Should It full to meet the wants of
the farmers and their families the
grange would either vanish entirely or
give way to a different organisation
that would moot existing needs
Changing eonditions of civilization nr.'
constantly bringing forward now
wants. The luxuries of even ton years
ago are now wanted—not always as
luxuries, more frequently as necessa
ries.
I.ess than ten years ago free rural
delivery of mall was enjoyed as a
luxury by the few. Today it is on
joyed by over 11i.500,000 people in
rural distriots as a necessary factor
to make farm life more satisfying. In
which class shall we place life insur
amce?
ltusiness rules and custom are fast
making life insurance another of the
necessaries of our ago. .Policies are
now treated as negotiable paper in the
business world, and I hoy represent a
definite form of property. If they were
all put together it is estimated that
policies, now in force would represent
nearly $18,000,000,00(1. Policies in the
old line companies number 18,000,000.
while 5,000,000 members of fraternal
orders have the balance. 1 presume
that 55.000,000 of our population have
an Interest in this property, as shown
in the policies carried by one or more
members of the family. Talk about
co-operation! Ilero it is developed to
the greatest success and having more
money and people connected with it
than any other private enterprise that
1 know anything about.
Life insurance is increasing at a tre
mendous rate. I will not risk t;> give
the number of millions of dollars' worth
of it that are said to be taken out in
new insurance each week. It makes
the capitalization of the trusts look
small. Thousands of farmers are now
carrying insurance. Many more want
to do so. They want insurance that
will bo within reach of their pocket
books, safe and suited to their coiuli
[ tions. The grange lias a chance to pro
vide the medium for life insurance of
such of its members as want to take
It just as it has so suoi-essfully pro
vided tiro insurance for them. Then it
will no longer be necessary for fann
ers to join other orders or to outside
| of the grange to gel either form of
insurance.
Hut. like any commercial enterprise,
this must be established oil a sound
basis, have a simple, safe working
plan and be intelligently directed local
i l.v to insure its supremacy. The na
tional grange in 1002 provided for a
committee to take this subject up, but
it is probable that its work will bo.only
of a suggestive character. It has not
been the policy of the national granue
to itself conduct an enterprise. It can.
however, blaze the way si that mem
bers of the Order in different states
and Pomona grange districts will be
able to establish companies based upon
such ideas and suggestions as are put
out to the membership with the in
dorsement of the national grange.
