The Royal Canadian oil‘ch the following advantages over the London Mutual : 1. No building worth 81200 is insured for say $1000, the Royal Canadian is oblig- ed to pay $1000, ifa loss Occurs. In such a case the London Mutual is obliged to pay only two thirds of the cash value, or $800. 2. lt'a horse worth $90 is killed in the fields by lightning, the Royal Canadian is obliged to pay $00. The London Mutual pays only $60. , For it cow worth $30 killed by light- ning the Royal Canadian pays S3". The London Mutual pays only $20. For other animals the Royal Canadian pays the full value. The London Mutual pays not more than $5, no matter how valuable the animal may be. 4. In the Royal Canadian animals are insured against lightning while at pasture anywhere. in the London Mutual they are insured while posturing on the premises of the insured only. 5. When articles are insured specifically, such as musical instruments, the Royal Canadian is obliged to pity the full amount insured up to the cash value of the article. The London Mutual pays only two-third of the cash value, no matter what the in- surance may be. 6. When “ordinary contents ” of out buildings are iiisured by-tlie Royal Canadian ALL implements are included. In the Lon- don Mutuiil only one reaper and one mower are included, no matter how good others may be. . 7. When the outbuildings are notjoined to each other the Royal Canadian insures under one stun the “ordinary contents” of all building not cut oii' byit distance great- er tliitu 40 lt., the same as if the contents were all under one roof. The London Mu- tual requires it Separate sum on the con- tents of each building, it‘ the distance is more than 12 ft. This is a very important difference in many cases. 8. In the Royal Canadian it is a part of the contract that standard STEAM riinnsnsus may be used without a special permit and without any rcslriction as to the distance from stacks or buildings, caretakers, pails of water, kind of fuel or direction of the wind. Many of the policy holders in the London Mutual were obliged to run their own risk while threshing last senson,be- cause it was found to be impossible to com- ply with the conditions of their permit. When a farmer pays for insurance he should secure it policy which will hold him safe when it is most required. 9. The Royal Canadian is obliged to pay its losses within sixty days and usually takes much less. The London Mutual need not pay for ninety days, and since it has become so hard up as to be obliged to her. row nioncy largely, it usually takes about the full time allowed. lo. The Royal Canadian policy is subject to the statutory conditions only. It has none of the numerous vurintiuiis against the policy-holder printed in red ink on the back of the London Mutual policy. ll. As to security, the inspector of insn- raiicc reports that the Royal Columbia has $202,758, the amount lic estimates to be necessary to enable the company to curry out all its engagements with its policy holders. Besides this he reports that it has to the good the $400,000 capital paid in cash by the shareholders, and ii iicl surplus in the finest» Send for the "Canadian Farm Advertiser" to}. J.
