the book has been revised and en- 
tirely rewritten. That it has been 
appreciated in its simple, boiled down 
and practical form is shown by the 
fact that twelve editions of the work 
have been issued. It is a valuable 
■condensed hand-book describing the 
application of the more common in- 
secticides and fungicides in daily use 
for the destruction of injurious in- 
sects and prevention of fungus dis- 
eases. The price of the book is 25

March contained the analyses of the 
samples received from the manufac- 
turers. The present bulletin con-

lected in the open market by the in- 
spector. 
PERSONAL. 
Oscar Wright, of Moundsville, W. 
Va., has been appointed a superin- 
tendent of national cemeteries by the 
federal government. He will spend 
six months at Andersonville, Ga., re- 
ceiving instructions after which he 
will be placed in charge of one of 
the national cemeteries maintained by 
the government. 
Greenhouses of Satisfaction 
They satisfy everybody. For pirk or cemetery they are unequalled. The outside 
pleases the eye, the inside satisfies the mind — and the pocket. An artistic exterior — 
a practical interior. You see the Premiers are built by specialists— that is why they 
are so perfect. Double strength everything. A handy man can erect one in a few 
hours— that is because they are so portable.

STONE CRUSHERS AND STi MlIOl .1 Hlli 
PARKS 
CEMEIERIESl 
Every Cemetery and Park needs a stone crusher 
just as it needs a roller of some kind. Astonecrusher 
such as we make (The Reliance) specially for the pur- 
pose, can be set up in any corner and used to crush the 
stone that gradually collects in every cemetery. 
The crushed stone can then be used on roads or 
paths or for foundations. 
We can furnish you a horse roller if you are not 
ready for a steam roller. Write us.
