by all means. 1t is safe and reliable.
If loss is sustained it will be paid in
full and promptly. 1t is an old
company and it's record is one of the
finest. The companies you name are
new, are experiments, and you take
great risks when you insure in them
and we advise you not to do it, The
lower cost of insurance in the new aud
unknown companies, counts no figure.
Better not insure at all, than pay
money for cheap insurance and get
nothing in case of loss. There is a
deal of swindling in this kind of in
surance."
The above shows that farmers
should not insure in unknown COM
panles. Before they insure, they
should investigate the company and
not believe every smooth tongued
agent that calls upon them and makes
promises that it is impossible to per-
form.

the city Monday and gave us some
additional particulars in regard to the
cyclone that passed over that town.
ship last week. She said that the
whirling column appeared to be half
mile high and fifteen inches in thick
ness, and could be seen for miles. It
was whitish in appearance. The
Little Cobb postoff1ce, owned by Ingel-
bret Oleson. was destroyed. The
family saw the storm coming and had
time to escape and save the horses.
The mail was scattered over the
country, but the most of it was picked
up afterwards. One postoffice order
was found mile away and was out
of it's envelope. The machinery was
ruined. Only one chicken was left.
The top and sides Of the barn we're
taken, leaving calf standing on the
middle of the floor. The calf has
acted as if it was drunk. ever since.
Faley's store at Medic was uninjur-
ed. A school house in the town of
Medo was wiped off the face of the
earth, and the Alma City creamery
was destroyed. The cyclone narrowly
missed many farm buildings.
Mrs. Warwick stated that two
separate cyclones could be seen. The
farmers in Medic have begun to dig
cyclone cellars, and will be prepared
for the next whirl wind that strays
that way. @

him. He said that Knutson worried
his dog on Decoration day.

party of this city, whom he says he
intends to have arrested after this
case is completed.
