Being farmer myself, but being disabled
from labor by rheumatism, have obtained
the agency of the Cass County Mutual In
surance company, and am prepared to insure
farm property only, for about one-half the rate
that can be obtained in any other insurance
company. Orders left at the NoRTHERNER
Office will meet with prompt attention. If
any man had placed the amount of premium
charged by any stock company at interest at
III per cent, the interest received on the same
would have paid his premiums in the Cass
County Mutual, for the past 22 years.
