The Mound City Mutual Life Insurance
COMPANY being Home Institution, it should
be preferred by citizens of the South for ma
nv reasons. We will, however, enumerate
only two or three.
i. The. money invested in it is retained at
home, where it assists in promoting Western
and Southern trade and commerce, in build
ing up towns and cities. in developing our
rich mineral and agricultural resources, in
building our great lines of railroad, and IN
cnltivating our boundless p~rairies. For these
reasons Southern and Western men should
insure in it.
2. As its funds are all invested where high
rates of interest prevail, it can grant insurance
cheaper and pay better dividends than any.
Eastern Company. For this reason all per-
sons desiring to make a certain and safe pro-
| vision for their families, should insure in it.
3. Its Local Board Of Louisiana Directors
being composed of men OF high standing in
the community. is a sufficient guarantee that
widows and orphans will be protected in their
fights, whea policies issued by this Company
mature by reason of death or otherwise. This
feature is peculiar to this compsny, Ono other
institution beyond the limits of the State hav-
ing a local board and is, therefore, worthy
of the highest consideration.
All kinds of Policies are issued by this COM
pany. All policies non-forfeiting.
This company makes no charge for policy
fee or stamps.

SOAKING CORN FOR HoRsEs.--A
correspondent of the Prairie Farmer,
writes as followss zone of the best
farmers that I know saves one-third of
his corn by soaking it. before be feeds
ii to his horses. His plan u this He
places two ~hogsheads IN his barn cellar,
secure from. the frost, fills them with
ears Of corn, and ponrs IN water until
they are covered. When well soaked,
he feeds out of one to- his horses, and
by the time this is exhausted the corn
in the other il well soaked. The cobs
become so soft that the horses eat them
with as good q relish as they do corn,
and they require only about tv'o-thirds
as much corn al, when fed without soak
ing. There is no doubt that the cob
eaten with the corn renders the diet
more wholesome Al certain amount
of coarse feed is necessary to the
health Of the animals"
