BRADLEY's FERrILIzERs.-The history of
the remarkable growth Of the business of

which this great business has been con-
Quoted, and is evidence that the demands

company has just issued an attractive
pamphlet entitled " Bradley's American
Farmer" which will be sent free to any ad-
dress Any farmer desiring one, by sending
postal card to the Bradley Fertilizer Com
pany, Boston, will receive a copy by return
mail. This book is illustrated with numer-
GUS cuts, showing the beneficial effects of the
Bradley fertilizers in growing potatoes, rye,
grass, hungarian grass, corn, onions, cab
bage, tobacco, strawberries, etc. 1t also
contains much valuable information in re-
gard to the use of fertilizers, and should be
in the hands of every farmer in Vermont.
THE forty-eighth annual statement of the
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany is like streak of spring after hard
winter. 1t shows prosperity in the midst
OF widespread hard times, and it is all ow-
ing to the fact that its business has been
conducted on the most approved lines and
that its controlling spirit has carried out
economical measures for the advantage of
its policy holders, just as of old. The re-
suit is that the list of policy holders yearly
increases in numbers, that the surplus is
every year rolling up, that the assets are
SOL, 100000, and that death claims are di-
minishing in proportion to the averages
made out in the regular tables. This is at
tributable to the care exercised in taking
risks. Everything connected with this
companys past years business shows that
it has been closely, yet literally, admins
tered, with the result that its members are
reaping the advantages in the decreased
cost OF insurance. The current year will
no doubt, see maintained the rate of divi
dend, which, in 1893, exceeded those of the
preceding years. The annual statement will
be found on page three.
