npHE utmost security is afforded to the Public by the very large amount of the Sub-
JL scribed Capital, by the highly responsible character of the Proprietary, and by the
Income of the Society itself, which now, from Premiums alone, esceeds £20,000 per
annum.
The Tariffs adopted by other Companies are in a great measure disregarded by this
Office, the Directors preferring to act without combination, as they are thus left free
to demand such Premiums only as they think reasonably sufficient to meet the risk in-
curred.
Farming Stock insured at 3s. per cent, without the average clause.
A Return of 50 per cent, of the Profits will be made periodicall.y to the Policy-Holders
of three years' standing.
Losses promptly and liberally met.
No Charge made for Policies.
Losses occasioned by Lightning will be paid.
Prospectuses, and every other information, may be obtained from any of the Agents.
