CEMETERY NOTES 
{Continued from page 187) 
separate lots in Lorraine Cemetery, 
Baltimore, Md., and which he claimed 
are exempt from creditors’ claims. 
Judge iMorris in the U. S. District 
Court, on November 19, upheld the 
contention of the attorney for the 
trustees in bankruptcy that only one 
of the lots, in which a burial had been 
made, was exempt and that the other 
nine were liable. The general law of 
the State, however, exempts burial 
lots from execution and the charter 
of the Lorraine Cemetery Co. pro- 
vides that none of its lots shall be sub- 
ject to attachment. Judge Morris 
evidently outlaws lots held for specu- 
lative purposes. 
The perpetual care fund of Fair- 
view Cemetery, New Albany, Ind., is 
steadily increasing. The association 
requires a deposit of $75 for a lot 
9 ft. by 18 ft. and $150 for a lot 18 ft. 
square. 
The Iowa Mausoleum Co. proposes 
to erect a compartment . mausoleum 
in Glendale Cemetery, Des Moines, 
la., to cost $100,000, and to contain 
I, 000 crypts. A fund is also to be 
placed in the hands of the city treas- 
urer, it is reported, as a perpetual 
trust fund for its maintenance and 
care. 
Mr. J. H. Merrill, who for 28 years 
has presided over the affairs of the 
Ottumwa Cemetery Association of 
Ottumwa, la., has resigned and is 
succeeded by Mr. William McNett.

Your Trees— How to Save Them 
Ten chances to one you are sorely 
neglecting them, and don’t know what 
to do about it. You have heard about 
so many quack “tree doctors” who 
have done their work unintelligently, 
and charged exorbitantly, that you have 
grown suspicious. And we don’t blame 
you. 
Ll So the really important point about 
us just now is, who are we and what 
can we guarantee to do for your trees. 
0 Our tree knowledge was not “picked 
up.” It is an accurate, scientific knowl- 
edge of trees and how to care for them. 
It was acquired in the best schools of 
Forestry in the country, and has been 
supplemented by extensive practice. ■ 
We do know our business. Do know 
how to trim, spray, brace, fill up cavi- 
ties and stop decay. 
It takes over fifty years to grow a 
tree, and one wind storm can twist it 
off or split it down, all because you 
didn’t know it had a weak spot or a 
hollow center. 
Our business it is to detect and remedy just such conditions — in 
short, to give your trees a clean bill of health, whether fruit trees, 
shade trees or woodlands. 
Our booklet both tells and shows some of the things we have done. 
Send for it.
