FIRE.--%The barn of Mr.. L. B. House,
father of Rev. E. House, of the Advocate Of

sumed By lire on Monday afternoon. In it
we're 500 dozen of wheat and $50 dozen oats,
and several tons of hay. being the result Of the
+EhuSe seasons toll. The origin of the fire is
unknown. There was no insurance. on any OF
the property" There is no reason why the
farmers Of Delaware county may not secure
themselves from any loss by fire by calling on
GEo C. EAToS, Agent for the old Hartford
FIRE Insurance Company and taking a safe
and sure Policy on their dwellings, barns and
contents for a year, or for term of three or
five years. See the card of the Company in
another column. In this age OF reckless cor
porations willing to insure at very low and er-
perimental ru tss, SAFE business men generally
prefer the security furnished by THE HART
FORD, with its more than so years experience,
to any other Farm property insured at the
lowest safe rates. We recommend the citi-
zens OF this county not to delay this matter,
but call on The Agent at once for their Poll
