“THEl CANDEE” 
“SNOW-PROOF ARCTIC” 
The improvement consists of an extension of the vamp 
backward, inside of the quarter, to a point where the exten¬ 
sion will form a close joint with the lining of the counter 
when buckled on the foot, whereby a perfectly snow-proof 
Arctic is obtained, as per diagram. 
Candee Patent Snow-Proof Arctic. 
All the Candee Arctics are of this style, and their superi¬ 
ority over the old can be seen by comparing the accom¬ 
panying cuts.

The Progress of a Successful Company. 
The attention of owners of Farm Property and Residences 
is invited to the above Pyramid, which shows the uniform 
and sure growth of the AGRICULTURAL INSURANCE 
COMPANY, during sixteen of its 26 years of existence. The 
figures represent the amount set apart at the dates given 
for the Protection of its Policy Holders. 
Twenty-six years of patient toil has made this the strongest 
and largest Company, doing an exclusive Dwelling Business 
in the United States, if not in the world. It now issues 
45,000 policies a year. No other like Company can show 
jucli growth and increase. 
The history of this Company proves that a LARGE busi¬ 
ness, well scattered, managed with prudence, can be done 
with a very small profit from each risk, and afford 
perfect security, which will grow stronger every year. 
While nine-tenths of the “ Mutual ” fire insurance com¬ 
panies, and many of the Stock companies, have failed on 
account of reckless or extravagant management, or doing 
too small a business, the OLD AGRICULTURAL, by 
economy, energy, and prudence, has every year added a 
substantial amount to its Assets, for the indemnity of its 
patrons, and it now occupies a position in the confidence of 
the public second to none. 
From year to year it spreads the base of its Pyramid and 
gains strength.
