BUSINESS GAIN Is Shown by the Report Prepared by French Tp. Mutual Board WHO AUDIT BOOKS Have Made a Gain of S2OO,000 in Business During the Past Year Berne, Indiana. Sept. 27. (Special to Daily Democrat)—A committee, including J. C. Augsburger, C. A. Mumma, J. Coeure and A. L. Carboden, met here today for the purpose of auditing the books of the French Township Mutual Fire Insurance company, preparatory to making a report at the annual meeting to be held next Saturday at the Election school house in French township, at which time also will occur the election of officers. The report shows an enormous growth in the company s business the past year, and it looks as though this company will soon be a recognized one over the state, though they at present write business only in Wells and Adams county. Last year the amount of business on the books totaled $591,085, an increase over the year previous of over $200,000. The company has been in existence for twenty-seven years and now has more than fifteen hundred members, it being strictly a mutual company, making assessments after each fire. —o A NEW CANDIDATE Please announce the name of Dan Erwin as acandidate to sell you a lot on easy payments, farm or city residence. 230-6 t - o HOGS FOUND—I 4 head of hogs, sow with four pigs and nine shoats, came to my place Saturday.
