The McKillop Mutual Fire •Insur-
ance Company has made n change in
the [charges made for new and re-
newal risks. Formerly for every new
or renewal policy the person insuring
had to pay the agents fee of $1. A
new schedule has noww• been arranged.
On all policies up to 5400. the insured
must pay the fee; from, 5.100. to $800.
the insured pays fifty cents and the
company the balance; on nil policies
over 5800. the company ;ays the
Agent. This will make the assess-
ment on new and renewal policies
more equitable, and will be appreci-
ated by the policy holders of this old
and well established company.
