This is the first time we have been
able to present the fall figures, in
our usual•;nanner, for this excellent
company. In 1891 the cost was only
$1.52 per )1,000 at risk; in 1592 only
$1.69; 1111893 it dropped to $1.12,
while last year it rose to $1.83. With-
in our observation covering many
years of its history we have noticed
no one in which the rate could be
called a high one. If there are any
property owners in that district who
are not members of this model com-
pany, we cannot see how they can
justify withholding their applications
and especially if they regularly read
The Ensign and are fully . informed
as the experience of the exponents of
the mutual system.—We clip the fol-
