We will set oat be tween the young treee, potatoes and other root products and give you one-half of the profits therefrom. It has been shown that inter-tree planting has produced a profit of $300 to $400 per acre with or dinary cultivation. In New Hampshire an acre has pro dtieed 1200 bushels of potatoes. In the Umpqua Valley, where all conditions are more f arorable than in New Hampshire, why could not even more be grown t The soil in the Umpqua Valley is much better than it is in New Hampshire, where these potatoes were grown, while climatic con ditions and water supply in the Umpqua Valley are exactly what is required for the raising of potatoes in great quantity. We simply quote potatoes as one of the many products that can be raised in abundance in this valley. At 400 bushels to the acre, inter-tree development will pay the cost of your land. COUPON O W.

Name Address Honia Or- The Great Restorer of Freedom From the Bondage of Slavery, Proclaimed Sept. 22, 1862 The effect of the Emancipation Proclamation was to release all slaves held in bondage within the con fines and jurisdiction of the United States. This release broke the shackles of bondage, giving slaves their freedom, placing them upon their own responsibility to go and do as their circumstances permitted. Further than this, it did nothing for their futurt3 provided no means whereby they could better their conditions other than what they actually mapped out and accomplished for themselves. The Present Is an Age of Slavery SLAVERY TO UNPROFITABLE TOIL SLAVERY TO LONO HOURS AT THE DESK OR BENCH, WITH NOTHING ACTUALLY LAID UP FOR THE FUTURE Proclaim Your Own Emancipation at Once The Roseburg Home Orchard Tracts offer a plain and feasible emancipation plan that severs the bondage of servitude a man's subordination to drudgery' and toil of commercialism. Your future comfort depends upon the wisdom of your conduct in the present. Your middle age and declining years may be spent in comfort and luxury if you will use your judgment in the present by laying the foundation of your fortune by investing in a ten-acre orchard tract that will, in a short time, produce an income of $5000 a year. . The Bondage of the Wage-Earner Every wage-earner, from the high-class scientific expert, who is employed by the day or year, to the common laborer, whose daily stipend is earned by the sweat of his brow, knows that the time will come when age will impair his earn ing capacity. The expense of living goes on regardless of a man's regularity of employment. In most cases the sav ings of wage-earners are nothing, records showing a major ity of them to be in debt. Old age finds them dependent upon someone else for support, the fruit of their labors having been exhausted. The Bondage of the Professional Man To the man up a tree, the trials of a professional man are not pictured in their real light. True, many of them make lota of money but think of their work their slavery to their clientele! The doctor, never knowing, day or night, when he is to be called to the bedside of the afflicted, is under a constant mental strain and never free to enjoy the real pleasures of life to their fullest. The lawyer, with mind gorged with affairs of importance, eats, sleeps and lives in an atmosphere of slavery restrained from the natural en joyments of life. Mother Earth Is the Great Emancipator THE PRODUCTS OF THE SOIL OF THE FAMOUS UMPQUA VALLEY WILL BUILD YOUR FORTUNE AND ABOLISH THE PRESENT-DAY SLAVERY OF THE WAGE-EARNER President Koosevelt has appointed a Commission to ascertain the reason, if possible, why there has been such an influx of the farming element into the great cities of the country. This Com mission has not yet delivered its offi cial report. Interviews with members of the Commission indicate that it is their opinion that life on the farm has been unattractive. The excitement and social life of the city attract and hold the youth who once feels its influence. The Roseburg Home Orchard Tracts will constitute a community of many families, all engaged in practically the same pursuit, living within a short distance of each other. These will nat urally constitute a community. Once formed, the social advantages, business harmony and prestige of such commu nity will be of mutual financial value.
