The News -Record representative
visited the local greenhouses recently
and was well repaid by the sight of
so niany interesting growiug things.
Clinton has two fine greenhouses.
Mr. John Cuningliarae, who has been
growing flowers, etc, for Clinton
citizens for many years past, lest
fall opened ist fine new glass house,
in addition to hie two old eneS, which
have served his growing trade for
some tinae. This is now full of green
stuff, potted plants, slips, etc, ready
for the spring setting out, with
thousands of seedlings ready- te,be
or in process of being transprAntee.
A visit to such a place on one of
these sunny days gives one the Ina
pressioic, of being in midsummer in-
stead of March.
Messrs- W. Jenkins and Son, who
last fall completed their fine new
greenhouse in Orange street, also
have an excellent plant. anti it is full
to overflowing of green things, lit-
erallY thousands of pots being filled
with little plants or seedlings. It is
a large Ironse but seems none too
large for the ambitions of its own-
ers. .
In both places lettuce is growirig
prentifullY, also rhubarb, etc. There
is no need to send out of town for
green stuff, unless everybody want-
ed ,lettuce at onee, when the supply.
might run, short.
Clinton is well -served with these
two places in which may be procured
everything needed for the planting
of the garden, 'when gardening' time
tomes. We. were told.we came too
soon, but we shall go again, nate:, the
season is more advanced, and a visit
by anyone interested in pal ta arid
flowers will prove weIl wort3 while.

pect of being able te eel?. beer., Some
expressed dissatisfaction, geld they
did not want to sell it and nought it
unfair to put it up to the grocers.
Others had not giVen the matter
much thought, others said it would
depend upon their customers, if they
found a demand, and a permit was
granted them, they would supply it.
One. emphatically declared that he
wouldn't sell it, no matter what oth-
ers did. "It is taking as back fifty
years," declared another greeter,
• Permits will e granted with ref-
erence to character and premises, ac-
cording to Attorney -General Nickle,
and the beer may be sold by the
