Elsewhere in this issue will be found a

which shows that their capital stock is
now $1,000, having been increased from
$4,000. This is another evidence of the
steady, healthy growth of this institu-

principles will win. Some one has said
that the president Of this bank talks

the cashier, business. The HERALD is

Home is word which has the power
to thrill the heart with pleasure and
awaken thoughts and memories which
are dear to each individual. But to be q
home in the highest sense you must
own it, then there is an incentive to
beautify the surroundings; to have 9
neat yard, earpeted with grass and
ornamented with trees, flowers and
vines; to grow fruit trees and vineyards,
to have good fences, gates on their
hinges and everything in as good order
as time and means will permit.
When we travel over the country, see
farm homes-see the new frame houses
and barns with modern improvements
that have taken the place of the old
ones-the neat cottages or large two
story dwellings which are being erected,
we cannot help admiring the improve.

fences and we'll kept lawns how much
more attractive it looks to one.
Then good kitchen garden with
vegetables and fruits growing is another
outdoor attraction and speaks volume

Insurance as business may be d.

insurance, until the past rs years was
q almost the only insurance available,
and the charges made by these com

farmers to patronize as they were taxed
so heavily to support these few organl-
cations. The farmers began to look
around to see if there was some more
economical way of getting insurance by
the farmers.
We find by examining the state Aud.

April 2, 1870, in Allamakee county by
the Germans--call the German Mutu'
