'They seem to think they are left like

ment to meet its share of the obligations

The Inland Empire has been bottled

what has been done by -the famous
Sault Ste.Marie canal, 'they become
clamorous for an open Columbia river.
The Dalles is no more-. deeply inter
ested in this matter thau the balance
of the Inland: Empire; but of one fact
the people may rest assured, if The
Dalles and the Inland Empire" do not
force the matter to a prompt and decis
ive issue it will not be forced. That's
all there is about that. The only help
that can be expected below the Cas

1. In two years it makes a fence that
will turn rabbits, sheep and bogs, and
in three years it turns everything.
. . 2. ..It is .the cheapest fencing ever
used, as it supplies the material ior all
time to come.
3. It does not sap" or impoverish the
ground, being strictly an atmospheric
plant, and wilt not grow " from the eeed
or by cutting the roots, and hence will
not spread.. ' . s" .
- 4. It grows only from cuttings, and
will grow in the dryest ground, drawing
its sustenance from the air.. , -
5. It requires no trimming, growing
in perfect shape and height for a fence.
6. It has been thoroughly and satis
factorily tested in climates more rigor
ous than ours, and does not 'winter-kill,
having been successfully grown in
Ohio, Kansas, Texas and Colorado for
the last nine years for fencing purposes.
: 7. It can be planted any time of. year
except in mid-winter.
8. It ornaments your homes, being
an evergreen and blooming through the
months of May, June and July.
9. This wonderful plant opena its
bloom just aa the sun crosses the me
ridian line, making it a timepiece.;
10. It also has a small, pear-shaped
fruit, which is red when ripe and quite
delicious, hut, being hard to gather, it is
not much used.
It will be delivered about October 1,
1892, and in order to ' introduce it in
this country extra inducements are now
offered. f We respectfully solicit investi
gation, and invite you to call and ascer
tain folly, in; regard to itfl - merits, as
