POLICY HOLDERS OF FARMERS
MUTUAL INSURANCE CO. MEET
HERE TUESDAY
DIRECTORS MEETING ALSO HELD
Sec. Sergeant's Annual Report Shows
Satisfactory Progress for
Past Year

The annual meeting of the policy
holders of The Farmers Mutual Towr
Fire Insurance Co. was held at the
courthouse in this city Tuesday.
w. S. Sergeant, of Sheldon, Lend
ert BOs, of Tony, and I. zimmerman,
of Island Lake, were elected to sue
ceed themselvs as directors l. j. AL
len, of Bruce, was elected to succeed
R. w. Bates, of Amacoy, as a
director
The report Of Secretary W. S. Ser
geant showed the affairs of the COM
pany to be in very satisfactory
condition and also showed a very
gratifying increase of business during
the past year. The gain in insurance
in force amounted to $11 900 for the
year, there being 26 new policy hold
ers, which together with 13 renewals,
makes total of 1873 policies now in
force. The total insurance in force is
about 5000 100000.
The company was organized in 1892
and has had a steady growth ever
since. 1t has saved it's members
many dollars in premiums during it's
twenty-five years of existence. Dur
ing the past two years, especially,
the losses have been very light and
with the clearing up of the slashings
that accompanies the development
of the county the danger of excess
i've loss in any one year is ever grow
ing less. 1t is not out of place to say
at this time that the success of the
company has been due in no small
measure to the excellent character of
officers chosen to conduct the affairs
of the organization.
Directors Meeting Held
At the conclusion of the policy
holders meeting, the directorst as
sembled and reelected E. F. Brain
erd as president and treasurer of the
company and w. S. Sergeant as sec
retary, for the ensuing year.
