plant ono grain in a place, at a distance

in cotton field, and when the corn tassels

each stalk may fall on its own silk. This
will make it fill well. After it matures,
select an ear to your liking, and plant
where it wHl not mix with other corn,
and you will have a pure unmixed corn.

?fo- thirty per cent, less than that charged by Mutual tc.iipuujo, and which is equivalent to ?.
I yearly ''dividend" paid in advance < that amount on mutual rates.' This low' cost of insurance
jjhororthy of attention. Since its organisuition tlii** company'has received in premiums from ita
policy-holders the sum of $1,017,000. To effect the same amount.of insurance in a Mutual Com* ?
ip&ny would have cost them an initial outlay of $2,000,000. By allowing" its policy-holders tp(rfl-jr j, ,
min in ?icir own possession this excess of $483,000, the Universal has virtually paid them a
"dividend" of $483,000, and p:ud it, too, in udvanee, instead of at the end of ona ?r more ycaru. I
It i im penible to mid anv example of a Mutual Company furnishing iniuranca at so low accost m;
by returning to its policy-holders an equal amount upon simUar.receipts. . t.m t-vfo-i^ '
SkcoXD. Participation in the legitimate profit* vf the Cbmpany, upon a plan vhieh secures to tho^
jyolicy-hulders the same treatment which .Directors ana Stockholders award to' tkemstbfss. This syitem
of participation, in connection with; the low "stock" rates of premium, most necessarily secure to.
the policy-holders every advantage to be derived from prudent and careful management. - '.!> ~
i Hie low rates of premium coiapcl economy, and, independent of participation, guarantee to the
1 policy-holder bis insurance at a rate which is not in excess of the coat in well managed mutual
companicsr while, by the proposed plan of participation in what may be considered the tcgit{<
mate profits of the business, the cost will bo still further diminished. . ,
Thus by tho combined advantages arising from low stock rat? and participation in the profits,
it is coaftdea?y believed that tho UNIVERSAL LIFE IKSUBANCE COMPAMV utters in
surance at its lowest practicable cost. ,
