STRATFORD NOTES.
(FkOM ouh own correspondent

Winter ii on us once more, and the re ids are beginning to assume their winter co rf mud. A supply of che p metal is a prime necessity for the distiinl and it is to be hoped that the Governme> t are keeping the Mount Egmon*, tramway scheme steadily in hand. It is becoming more and more evident that tbe mountain is the raoit, in fact the only, practicable source of supply.
Tiifti e is some talk of a winter course of popuhr lectures in the Public Reading Room ; alfo a niTck parliament. Something of the sort would do much to help the wint-.r months pa-s more pleasantly.
Th'i Farmers' Union have formed a branch here, though it remains to ba seen whether any practical baneQt will result from it. Justly orunjustiy, the Union is lo kei on by many as a mere pjli'i3al dodge.
