I am enclosing herewith copy of Mr. Williams' report on the Farmers' Mutual Fire Insurance Company. The report speaks for itself. Your company seems to be in very good condition. It is noted that your income last year was about $600 less than your out-go. So your ledger assets were reduced that much; $300 of this went to pay notes which had been made the year before. I congratulate the officers and directors of your company upon the success of the company. I wish very much that each county in the state had one such company for country risks and also one such company for the town risks. The mutual fire insurance companies of this state save the people of the state a great deal of money. Very truly, F. H. McMaster, Insurance Commissioner. The report of J. H.
