They contemplate a larger amount. of trunk ‘“~line extensions in this province this year than they have made in any other sea- son for the past six years. In the great.- er portion of this work tho city of To- ronto is directly interested, as it will naturally aid in promoting her position as the commercial metropolis of Ontario. A through copper line will be construct . and from TorOnio to Orangeville, and from thence will be extended through the flourishing towns of Shelburne, Dun- dallt. Fleshcrton, Markdale and Chats- wvorth to Owen Sound, and from thence to Hepworth and \Viarton via Tara. This will open up a large and important district which has not before had the advantage of telephone connection. It will also give Owen Sound a very much hotter connection with Toronto than it at present possesses in the round of cir- t-uits. This is important to Toronto in two ways. It will relieve the pressure on the present trunk lines reaching the city, via Barrie. Orangevillcand Guelph, and will also bring a. large volume of business which the city has not hereto- fore had. A trunk line is alga to be constructed from Mount Forest to Dur- ham and Fleshcrton, connecting with the above main line. Another exten- sion will be made from Purkhill to Sar- nia, and also a connecting link between St. Thomas and Bridgetown, in each case taking in all important places along There will also be an exten- sion of the trunk line north from Lind- . say to Fenelon Falls and Bobcaygeon. All these will furnish good connections for the city. These lines will all be of copper, constructed in the most substan- tial manner and with a view to ultimate- lv making them metallic circuits. Other and still more important trunk line lili- _provemcnts in this district are in con- templatiou, simply awaiting the turn of events in the cityâ€"Mail. -9 Improved Trade. IN ALL LINES BRISKER.

THE LONDON MUTUAL, FOR FARMERS. The Royal Canadian offers the following advantages over the London Mutual: 1. It's. building worth $l200 is insured for say $i000, the Royal Canadian is oblig- ed to pay $1000, its loss occurs. In such a case the London Mutual is obliged to pay only two thirds of the cash value, or $800. 2. lfn horse worth $90 is killed in the fields by lightning, the Royal Canadian is obliged to pay $90. The London Mutual pays only $60. 3. Fora. cow worth $30 killed by light. ning the Royal Canadian pays 33". The London Mutual pays only $20. For other animals the Royal Canadian pays the full value. The London Mutual pays not more titan $55, 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 pay the full amount insure-l 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 insured by" the Royal Canadian ALL implements are included. In the Lon- don Mutual only one reaper and one mower are included, no matter how good others may be. 7. When the outbuildings are not joined to each other the. Royal Canadian insures under one sum the “ ordinary contents” of all building not cut off bya distance great- er thun 40 tt., the same as if the contents were all under one roof. The London Mu- tual requires a separate sum on the con- tents ot' each building, if 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 srsau runssnsns may be used without a special permit and without any restriction 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 season, be- cause it was found to be impossible to com- ply with the conditions of their permit. When a farmer pays forinsurance he should secure a. policy which will hold him safe whoa it is most required. sonnhlc weather and improving country roadways have had favorable efiect on general trade.

The Royal Canadian is obliged to pay its losses within sixty days and usual] 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 bor- row money largely, it usually takes about the full time allowed. 10. The Royal Canadian policy is subject to the statutory conditions only. It has none of the numerous variations against the policy-holder printed in red ink on the back of the London Mutual policy. ll. As to security, the inspector of insu- rance reports that the Royal Canadian has $202,758, the amount he estimates to be necessary to enable the company to carry out all its engagements with its policy holders. Besides this he reports that it has to the good the $t00,000 capital paid in cash by the shareholders, and a net surplus $117,607 making in all a total cash surplus of $5l7,607 to protect. its policy-holders against unexpected contingencies. In ad- dition to these cash items it has a. subserib- ed capital of $l00,000 not called up. Re- garding the security of the London Mutual unearned premium it should have on hand is $290,309. To make up this amount in cash a second call would have to be made on the premium notes for a large amount. there were no bad debts, and this surplus is made up wholly of the unpaid balance of premium notes already heavily assessed. The company reports the losses adjusted but unpaid at the close of the year at $6,- 887, but the Inspector of Insurance finds that the liability for unpaid losses at the end of the year was $20,286. The cash on hand to pay these losses only amounted to $13,911. ‘ In view of the foregoing facts farmers will have no difficulty in deciding as to the company in which they should be insured.
