The fir.st thing a trained gardener 
does in the Spring to preserve a beauti- 
ful lawn from destruction is to roll it, 
so as to press into contact with the soil 
the grass roots heaved out by the frost. 
This’ is one of several excellent sug- 
gestions on “The Proper Care of 
Lawms” contained in a booklet issued 
by the Durham Co., Berea, O., manu- 
facturers of the Durham Roller Bearing

OBITUARY 
It is with deep regret that we have 
to record the death of Mr. Samuel C. 
Moon, one of the most prominent 
nurserymen in the country, and known 
to manj' of our Eastern readers. He 
died at his home near Morrisville, Pa., 
on January 21. in the 57th year of his 
life, and after a very short illness. 
Mr. Moon was the son of Mahlon 
Moon, the pioneer nurseryman of 
Bucks Co., Pa., and was born at the 
old Moon homestead, where he also 
passed away. The well known nur- 
serj' has been in operation since 1848. 
Mr. Moon is survived by his widow, 
one daughter, Miss Jane C. Moon, 
and two brothers, both nurserymen. 
Mr. Moon was highly esteemed in 
his business, and like his father be- 
fore him w'as noted for a charming 
personalitJ^ 
Friends of IMr. H. M. Turner, super- 
intendent of Roselawn Cemetery, St. 
Paul. Minn., will join us in expressing 
a sincere sympathy for him in the 
loss of his wife, who died at St. 
Luke’s hospital on January 18.

^Success of Demin^ Power Sprayers 
on Public and Private Grounds 
The sprayers used on low-growing fruit trees are often not suitable for tall trees; 
^^there is. therefore, a great demand for a more powerful and efficient machine, and 
^ hence the favor with which Deming Power Sprayers have been received. 
Made of best material, substantial and durable; engine and pump are 
mounted rigidly together, preventing lost motion and permitting higher 
pressure. They have large air-chambers. 
We shall be pleased to furnish particulars, including blue- 
prints. specifications and estimates. We make pumps 
all uses — distributing agencies in principal cities.
