HAIL INSURANCE From now on, hail storms will be frequent; already, some places have suffered, just a few minutes of hail will so destroy your growing crops that your investment and labor will be wiped out. Almost every year some section is so devastated that it is necessary to send out side aid to the sufferers. You can prevent some disasters, but you have absolutely no control over hail; you can neither prevent it nor lessen its damage. The one safeguard is insurance. We have written this class of insurance for the past several years for The Home Insurance Company of New York. They have in every instance paid their losses cheerfully and to the entire satisfaction of the assured. The rates are very reasonable. ** - EVERY FORM OF INSURANCE THE WILLIAMS INSURANCE AGENCY ESTABLISHED 1871 j R. M. KENNEDY, Jr., President ? Telephone 52 J. K. SHANNON, Manager i
