An offer for the farmer who wants the best fence produced at 

 the lowest price a life-time fence can be made for. Advance Fence 

 isn t just a boundary line. It stands for system and advanced value 

 in property. Any farmer who subdivides his land into plots for 

 crop rotation is systematizing his farm business. A built-to-last 

 sound-value, substantial-looking fence means to the owner of the 

 land, and every man who works on it, exactly what a modern 

 substantial factory or office building means to every man doing 

 business in the building. 



ADVANCE FENCE 



Is An Investment That Pays Big Dividends 



What the farmer puts money and protection into, he's going 

 to get money and protection out of. 



Advance Woven-Wire Fence is the best looking, strongest con- 

 structed, longest lasting fence on the market. To prove it, we make 

 our great offer. If the fence isn't O. K. to you, and more, send it 

 back at our expense. 



We sell to you direct no middleman therefore the price is 

 right one profit only after making. 



Advance Fence is made of Solid Wire, not wire cut and spliced 

 again. A cut wire weakens. Our stay wire is continuous, woven 

 in with the main top and bottom wire running the entire width of 

 the fence from one stay to the next. Made of the best basic, open- 

 hearth steel, galvanized with a heavy coat of 99-per-cent-pure spelter 

 that means rust proof. 



Advance Fence always stays taut straight and handsome. Prove 

 it for yourself. Write to us for all particulars. Remember, we pay 

 freight and guarantee safe delivery. Don't pay two prices Write us

represents the stockholders in the court action. It is alleged 

 that the defendants, who are stockholders in both concerns, 

 have transferred property from the Irrigated Lands Com- 

 pany to the Price River company to the financial loss of 

 stockholders in the former concern. Mr. Burtner asserts 

 that the Irrigated Land Company is insolvent. He asks the 

 appointment of a receiver, and that directors be enjoined 

 from collecting further assessments. 



WASHINGTON. 



E. D. Mineah, president of the Land Owners' Associa- 

 tion, at Hussum, states that 170,000 acres have now been 

 signed, but that the full 250,000 acres must be secured before 

 work on the Klickitat canal can be commenced. In a recent 

 statement he predicted that operations would be begun early 

 this spring. 



J. T. Buffington of Mabton has arranged to drill a test 

 artesian well two miles east of Attalia, to learn whether a 

 supply of water for irrigation can be secured. It is claimed 

 that other land owners in this district are watching the ex- 

 periment with a view to installing similar systems if it is 

 successful. 



Land and water rights in Stevens county, formerly owned 

 by the Upper Columbia Irrigation Company, have been pur- 

 chased by S. W. O'Brien of Spokane for about $400,000. 

 Members of the company, represented by Mr. O'Brien, are 

 unknown, but it is claimed that large tracts of land in this 

 district will be placed under water. 



The Reclamation Service will rent water for the coming 

 season under the Sunnyside Irrigation Project for use on 

 lands outside the unit to be opened to irrigation in 1910. 

 It is estimated that there will be sufficient surplus water.
