Home Fire Insurance.

A great deal Of discussion has recently been
had among insurance agents and policy holders
as to the wisdom OF sinsurIng property In home
companies the argument being that It was risky
in case OF great fires. We venture to assert how
ever that there is no city in the United States
well adapted TO give stability to home companies
as our city, on account OF our vide avenues and
streets, thus making large confagrations impos-
sible. As illustration OF this it is but neces-
sary to quote the unusual success Of the AIRING
ton Fire Insurance Company for the District Of
site United States Treasury, who have been
largely increasing their business greatly due,
also, to the efficiency of their direetors Issuing Of
policies at reasonable rates, and guaranteeing
prompt payment Of losses.
