It is better to be safe than sorrv. and in a purely mutual company the cost is bo iiiue inai every one can do sure without feeling the cost. Long exemption from a loss is no as surance that you will not be the loser to-morrow or next week. The wisest men of our county are in- surea against an the elements 01 des truction because it is the best policy. iou owo yourscii ana your iamily a duty in this line as much as you do to pay your taxes to save your homes, be cause should you have a loss by fire or lightning or tornado it might start you down hill at such a rate that you could not even pay your taxes, and eventually loso your home and everything else. The destruction of property by wind storms has been increasing annually ever since the Mississippi and Missouri valleys have been settled, the increase is owing to the increase in the number of buildings in this wind stricken territory. And for any man to say that he is in a community which a c yclone never hit is not saying that it never will be. The hill lop or the deep valley is equally liable, hence the necessity of insuring and the company in which you should insure should be considered. The Nebraska Mutual Cyclone offers you the following inducement: First. Our fees are small and yet all that is necessary. Our company is not organized for the purpose of making money, and no one except the secretary and agents get anything for their work bo far, the agents fee is one dollar for each application, and any one who has ever done any canvassing will know that he will not got rich very fast at that rate. The secretary's fee is fifty cents with each application. So far our total fees amount to $107.00 for our total number of policies is 214. Our object in telling this at this time is to prove to you that our company is not a money making scheme, and if any mutual company refuses to do the same you may do well to avoid giving it your insurance, because any mutual company should throw its books open to the members and show that it is working in the interest of its members and not in the interest of its agents and officers. We now have ovor $230,000 worth of property insured in thirty-eight coun ties and would like an agent in every neighborhood in the state to represent US. Our fees are, membership 81. Survey $1.00, and ten cents per hundred dollars insurance, i. o. $3.00 for the first $1, 000.00 and $4.00 for the second $1,000.00. With the above fees our company has met the 4 expense incident to organi zation and at this time has over $180.00 in the treasure. We do not insure against fire and lightning. We invite correspondents from all who are interested in insurance sub jects, please look ia this department if you do not get a personal letter. Before this article is in print the editor hereof will be in the western part of the state for the purpose of ad justing hail losses. All who are inter ested should watch their mail as I will give notice about the time I will be . with you.
