The. Agricultural Insurance Company,
of Watertown, New York, was organized.
and commenced business in March, 1853,
with charter combining its risks entire
ly to farm property. The charter has
been amended so as to include private
residences in cities and villages, and
other property not more hazardous.-
The officers OF the Company have never
allowed it to be diverted from this poll

the devastating fires in our large cities,
while, this Company by its system of
isolation from business risks, has steadi-

to the business man who wishes to ex-
empt his home from the uncertainties
of traffic-ofering each of them an in

Prudent men often deed their homes to
their wives to preserve them from bust

street Improvements will bring upon The
heads of the council a perfect avalanche Of
lawsuits. Visitors to London as we'll as res.
