THE GREAT WESTERN FARM INSU
RANCE COMPANY--LIFE AND
FARM INSURANCE.
BY PROF. j. D. BUTLER.

Life insurance means honesty for some
men, and policy for many more. In no
other way can they pay their debts. or
obey the apostles charge that a. man
provide for his own and especially those
OF his own house"
But good as is life insurance, farm in
>urance IN the shape of land sold on ten
years credit is better.
Both give a great prize in return for a
number OF small annual payments. But
farm insurance gives that boon in the
midst Of life life insurance only at the
end OF it. One gives it for !, man himself
TO enjoy, the other only for his heirs
one performs, the other promises.
Death" said an Irirhman, as no great
curse, Tor it always comes Just where we
would have it, at the end of life and
never at the beginning" But this is
more than can be said Of life insurance
for IFS blessings come at the wrong end
OF lie, not like death and farm insurance
at the right end.
BESIDES, in farll insurance the pay
ments are only nine or ten, but ia life
insurance they may become so multitu
dinous that they will amount to several
times the value of the prize drawn at
last. The one is lottery, the other
square dealing.
Again, farm insurance gives you in the
outset mine which pays for itself, tor
out OF it you can dig not only living,
but gold for all payments Life insur
ance makes no such pretensions. 1t is all
post na0rtcno-and nothing sin the living
present" In this aspect life insurance
resembles the patent Tantalus of Sydney
Smith. That reverend joker had a bag
Of oats hung just before the TONGUE OF
his carriage. The horse hearing the oats
rattling just ahead, would rush forward
with all his legs, yet could never quite
thrust his nose into those dailties. On
the other hand farm insurance gives a
mess of grain before the journey begins.
and all along many batting to prepare
for each hard pull before the home,
stretch
Nor is this all. What life Insurance
promises is fixed sum. But the lane
given by farm insurance is always grow
ing in value. Less than forty years ago
the whole area of Iowa could have been
bought for forty million of dollars. 1t
was sold by the UHited States for less
than that. To day it would bring more
than ten times that sum.
Give me then first farm insurance.
and then life insurance.
Within the last twenty three months,
the Great Western Farm Insurance Com
pany, alias the Burlington & Missouri
River Railroad Company, have sold along
their line, in Iowa and Nebraska, 351,
7O5 acres 60 3,23S purchasers, almost all
on ten years credit. and six per cent in
tcrest. 5.....

BRooMs AND SwEEPING.-If brooms are
wet in boiling suds once a week they
will become very tough, will not cut the
carpet, last much longer, and always
sweep like new broom A very dusty
carpet may be cleaned by setting a pail
of cold water out by the door; wet the
broom in it, knock it to get out all the
drops, sweep yard or so, then wash the
broom again as before, and sweep again.
being careful to shake all the drops off
the broom, and not sweep fai at time.
The water may need to be changed once
or twice if the carpet is very dusty.
Snow sprinkled over a carpet and swept
of before it has time to melt and dis
solve, is also nice for renovating soiled
carpet. Moistened Indian meal is used
with good effect by some housekeepers
