CONTINENTAL INSURANCE COMPANY POLICY HOLDERS. The firm of Harris & Harmon was dissolved June Ist, 1908. R. B. Harris taking his companies to another office, and A. J. Harmon retaining his, including the Continental Insurance Company, at the same office where Mr. Bruner has written his business for years, Second Floor I. O. O. F. Building. Farmers holding Continental Insurance policies, R. B. Harris is not soliciting business for the Continental, but for a company known as The American. If you wish your insurance written or re-written in the Continental Insurance Company, the largest American Insurance Company writing Farm Insurance, who pay their losses immediately on adjustment without discount, whose limits on stock are not equaled by any Company, do not be convinced by agents representing other companies that they are giving you a policy equal to the Continental. Investigate it and see for yourself. Call on me, or I will call on you in ample time before your insurance runs out to renew it. As I am the only authorised agent to write insurance for the Continental Insurance Company in Jasper coun-

ty north of Carpenter township. Farmers, do not be misled and buy something you do not want, which is the case when you leave the Continental Insurance Company, whose terms are equal and lower than any other companies soliciting farm business. Always buy the best when yon can buy it for the same money, and' that is a policy in the Continental Insurance Company. Remaining respectfully yours, A. J. HARMON, Agent for the Continental.

THE CHICAGO STOCK SHOW. The International Live Stock Exposition, held this year from November 28 to December 10, is the supreme court of the year’s prize winners, justly styled the show of champions, the show within whose portals the bluest blood of the bovine, ovine and porcine families Struggles for supremacy, the exposition whose educational value cannot be overestimated. Here the foremost breeders, who, by constant study, mutual contact, observation and comparison, have succeeded in producing the best, are giving the world the benefit of their labors. Here the breeder and feeder are shown by actual block demonstration by what methods their work can be made more profitable, and the kind of animals the butcher wishes them to supply. These -sand many other object lessons that can only be earned by a visit to this great exposition make a visit to the "International” a paying investment and part of the training of every progressive farmer, feeder and breeder. The fact of his having attended a previous show does not signify, for new problems are being solved here each year, each year sees the work and achievements of the previous shows surpassd and at each successive exposition new standards of excellence are brought to the attention of the public. Let the live stock interests get behind this triumphant success, let them center upon this leading live stock exposition as the pride of American enterprise and let their patriotism force them to offer encouragement by attending, thus making it possible to continue this splendid work and to make it the world’s greatest live stock exposition in every sense of the word.
