Messrs O’Brien Bros., the popular nurserymen of Winton, still continue to improve their nursery, just outside of the north town belt. This place is more conveniently situ ated than their nursery opposite the racecourse, and in future it will be used not only for transplanting into, but also for raising seedlings, for which purpose the light soil is well adapted. It is very nicely kept, and an ample supply of ornamental, fruit, and forest trees,- besides rose trees, and various plants are always on hand. The people of the township and district appear to know the value of trees, shrubs, etc., for improving their property, and supplies have been largely drawn from the Winton nursery, By careful attention to business, and giving the wants of their customers first consideration, they have, as they deserved to, formed a large business connection, extending over the whole of the district. "When in the cast recently (writes an American paper), I was amused to see one o£ the latest electrical devices, which is evidently destined to drive out of the tailoring trade one of its most characteristic features. This is an electric cutter, used for cutting out garments. The new shears are really a scries of sharp knives, operated by the now almost übiquitous motor, and so regularly that they can be guided to a nicety. The cutter can follow his mysterious marks to the sixteenth of an inch, do his work much better than now, and what of course is of more strictly commercial value, in about one-third the time. It will enable one man to do the work of two or three.
