GLADSTONE AND NORTHEND NURSERIES, HEAR INVERCARGILL. One of the finest collection of Fruit Trees in the Colony. ~F> OBEET BTRRELL, in again soliciting jAI the patronage of hit nuitn-rons customers and the public generally, tenders his sincere thunks for their very liberal support in past seas ms, and solicits a continuance of their patronag®, ami assures them that all orders intrusted to his care will receive . prompt attention. PLANTING. Settlers contemplating planting should procure Trees or Bushes from a nursery, situate.! in an exposed plnc-i, as trees raised in shelteied lan I never succeed so well when removed to mere unfavorable localities.

I would call the special attention of intending plan'ers to my s 0.-k of Fuuix and Fores!' Treks, and Ornamental Tms atid Shrubs, which is remarkably large, varied an I liealiby, this season. ' To meet the increasing demand I have secured eight acres of land at Northern!, within five minutes’ wa'kof Des slreet, which is admirably ad ipted for nursery purposes, a considerable portion has already been planted, and, although occupying • a very exposed position, the young trees are strong, vigorous, and in excellent condition for planting out. THE SOIL. In that, quarter of the nura.ry where fruit trees and other deciduous plants are mostly grown, is a light sandy loam, and remarkable for causing the young slock to make fibrous roots—one of the best guarantees f®r the success of a young tree when transplanted. ■ CORRESPONDENCE.
