CASCADE WAGON RoAD-We pub
lish this morning an advertisement of the
rates of toll on the Willamette Valley
and Cascade Mountain Wagon Road
Mr. Hacklerran and party went as far
out on the road, last week, as Elk creek,
examining the road. and sowing grass
seed on each side of. the road through the
burnt district. 1t is thought that wag-
ons with fair loads would have no diff
fculty in traversing the road now, and
would meet with very little snow Par
has been effected by SHOWS or rains of the
winter. The Company are bound to
keep the road in first rate condition for
the summer travel.
SEED PoTAroEs Mr. John \. Mil
lard of this city has variety Of seed po
tatocs, which he offers to the public at
very low figures, considering the cost to
him to get them here. Among the vari-
cites offered we mention the Early Good
rich aud the Prairie Seeding, the latter
variety, in our opinion, being the fnest
potato grown. Then he has the Early
Dykeman, Cuzco, Pink eyed Rustycoat,
Garnet, Chill, Prince Albert aud the
New White Peach Blow, al excellent
varieties, the last mentioned beng a
slow grower, taking the whole season to
mature fully. Mr.. Millard has good
stock of fruit trees, plants, strawberry,
currant, gooseberry and grape vines on
hand at his nursery, for sale. Address
John \. Miilard, Albany, Oregon.
