NEW PLAN FOR INsURING.-DaceAings made
Specidlty.-Persons having private residences,
farm buildings and contents, or stock, to insure
against loss or damage by fire or lightning, are
invited to consider the advantages of security
and low rates offered them by the Agricultural
Insurance Company of Watertown, N. Y.
Its advantages are clearly demonstrated by
the late disastrous fires in Chicago and Boston,
proving that no Company doing general in
surance, with large amounts insured in cities,
however prosperous to-day knows what its
fate may be tomorrow. While many large
Companies were ruined and others crippled the
Agricultural continues smoothly on her even
course unaffected by those sad disasters, except
by increased business, giving its patrons secur-
ity. Its financial condition and the character
of its risks are considered second to that of no
other company in the United States. For fur
ther particulars in regard to the above named
Company, enquire of,
