The Charter Of this Company oilers more luVora-
Bile advantages to the farmer and others, than any
Company chartered in the State, by insurlhE
with or without a premium note. If the applicant
Drefer he can pay the full amount of the premium
in cash, or by cilccting Il cash insurance for two
years, the insured saves one-cightl Of the amount
he would otherwise have to pay; or by becoming
member and giving small premium note, the IN
sured saves nearly onc-half of the amount charged
by Stock Companies, when nsuring from year to
year This is the advantage resulting from the
combination of the
CASH AND MUTUAL PRINCIPLE.
