giant hedges are grown from it. In
rich soils, however, by itself and left
untrlmmed, it will in very few years
become broad-spreading feature Of

or more feet broad, with thousands of
flowers. The old scarlet variety may
be planted, and two years thereafter
grated on its various branches with
other varieties or colors, from pure

troduced in the California Legislature
to create and maintain labor bureau
to be composed of five commissioners,
to be appointed by the governor,
whose pay shall be SIS per day, but
not to exceed $25l per month, and
