Lots of Celery.

VIM. N Hewitt has for sale 500, 900
celery plants. He will be the most
extensive raiser of celery in South
Jersey. He raised and sold great quan-
titles last year, and yet his supply did
not meet one-renth of the demand.
Dealers declared it to be far more sale
able than that purchased in Philadel-
phia. This year Mr.. Hewitt will de-
vote a great deal more of his ground
for the purpose, and will build houses
in which to store it. Last year it is
said there was $4,000 worth of celery
brought to this city from Philadelphia.

PRACTICAL TEMPERANCE.
The WOOdStOWn :. Monitor >
ANXIOUS for Results.

Practical Results" is what the Pro-
hibition Woodstown Monitor is after,
and last weeks issue did not hesitate
to say SO. They think that the late
election in Pennsylvania plainly shows
that prohibition amendment is not
practical at this time, and declares
that local option is the most practical
starting point for the desired reform
In closing an excellent editorial the
Monitor publishes the following:
The Home Vssitor, an aggressive and
fearless champion of prohibition, pub
lished at Clinton, Hunter1on county,
this state, in its last issue, says:
"We are decidedly of the opinion
that the best way to educate public
feeling in this amendment direction is
to procure local option in counties.
Had the local option law been thor
oughly tested in Hunterdon county
for three years there is no doubt in
our mind but the majority in it's favor,
should an election have been held at
that time, would have been double or
triple what it was in Jan. last. Then
too, with eight or ten counties in New
Jersey under local option how much
easier it would have been through the
influence of these counties to have pro-
cured a constitutional amendment in a
few years, while an attempt at that
now we believe would meet with an ig-
nominious defeat.
Let us be willing to advance step by
step and hold every point taken. Sup
port for our Legislature candidates
that can be depended upon and gain
grounds as we learned to walk Do
not try too great things when the peo-
pie are not ready and with US. By dis
cretion rather than stubbornness we
can advance this great work in a
united way and when New Jersey is
ready for a constitutional amendment
we will not share the fate of our sister
commonwealth,

On the 18th the moon will be full

On the 23d and Oath she will encounter
