Our Correspondents. > Jones ville. Jonesvim.k, March31.?March came in e?M and remained cohl until the last few days when the mercury went up into the seventies. Not withstanding all this cold weather there issoine fruit that is not killed, and the prnliahility is then* will lie a pretty fair crop if it is not killed hy the cold weather that may come in April. It is an old savin;; hut I am not prewired to say that it is true one that all the fruit never Rets killed in March, hut it is certainly true this year. Farmers in this section have their farms in Rood sha|K* for the last of March. Much guano has lieen hauled out and put in the ground and the fanners kittle in planting and cultivating his crop is now on for the next few months.

As an example, look at a policy in the Hankers in comparison with either of the old : lint* companies -(t h e X. Y. Mutual, for instanced $2>S.So is the annual premium , charged by litis company at age 40 to secure a t w e 111 y year limited payment policy 0f $6000. With our company, the Hankers, we charge only S0S.5S. a difference of #140.22. Note tit is difference. Now il you can manage your own affairs. without the assistance of this old line company to act as your guardian, and will invest this amount ($140.22) ! each year yourself, it will produce at 6 per cent, compound , interest at the expiration of i<) years the snug little sum of $5017. In case of death with this policy in an old line company tin; beneficiary would only retire the face of the policy or ftOooo.oo. With ours the face of the policy and all accretions. Study this and I see what the old line Conipa( nies are doing for you. I also represent the Lloyds l;ire Insurance Companies and will write near every kind of risk 15 per cent cheaper than the old line companies. Country risks such as Cinneties, Crist Mills, Saw Mills, Barns etc. will be glad to write. All those wishing insurance of either kind 1 would he glad if the y will call 011 me. James E. Hunter.
