Insurance Company was never more pros
porous than to-day. This Company was
for the purpose of insuring
dwelling risks and farm property in Iowa.
A table of rates was established at the
beginning which was deemed adequate,
although much lower than was and is
usually charged on this class of property
by other companies. This table of Rates
has not been changed-fhc Company al
ways prcferring to see business done by
other companies than to do it themselves
for a less rate than would enable the
Company to indemnity its Policy-holGers
against loss-never allowing competition
to induce the Company to insure A at |
per cent for five years, and charge B B
per cent on the same class of property |
10 make up the deficiency. This is a
species of gambling that no company can |
tolerate and expect anything more than a |
limited existence. The Farmers Insur- |
ance Company is cmphatically Far
mers' Company-a Company organized |
and controlled in the interest eff the Far
mer, and one which affords the cheapest !
and best security against loss by fire and |
lightning. The money paid this company /
by the farmers of Iowa is not carried out
Of the State, as is the csse with foreign |
but while it receives its money
from the farming community, it is con-
SANITY paying it back to them, thus
making it cmphatically State institution
devoted to the interest of the farmers of
he State alone
