This will be made of as much practical 
value as the comparatively limited area 
■of the plant’s adaptability will permit, 
and it should be of great interest to 
many. 
The very nature of this publication 
makes the co-operation of its subscrib- 
ers a matter of mutual - benefit and in- 
terest for all, and to this end it is also 
necessary and desirable that photographs 
of improvements, or of particularly at- 
tractive landscape features, accom- 
panied by brief particulars, should be 
sent to the -publisher. Photographs of 
complete structures are more satisfac- 
tor}- than those from preliminary 
sketches or drawings, and “Before and 
After’’ pictures are always of especial 
value. 
To aid the cause in general, the pub- 
lisher will be glad, on request, to send 
copies of Park and Cemetery advertis- 
ing circulars, on matters pertinent to 
the subjects it treats, to enclose with 
our readers’ correspondence, an effec- 
tive method of creating interest. 
To attract, to educate and to inspire 
— these are the aims of the publisher, 
and that he has so far succeeded is at- 
tested by commendations in most ap- 
proving terms, of the work this journal 
is doing, from all parts of the country. 
But the field is as large as the country, 
and education on improvement lines is 
needed, in greater or less degree, 
^ throughout ; and the sooner the better. 
To promote this desirable end, and to 
increase the usefulness of the paper, 
requires the assistance of all interested, 
and the cause is of so vital interest to 
the comfort and well-being of the peo- 
ple, that our readers and patrons will 
both understand and appreciate this 
zealous appeal for their active sympathy.
