STONE CRUSHERS AND STMliOM M 
P^RhS AND CEMETERIESMBW 
Every Cemetery and Park needs a stone crusher 
just as it needs a roller of some kind. Astoneerusher 
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.

PERSONAL. 
Mr. Charles M. Loring, father of the 
Minneapolis parks, and one of the pio- 
neer improvement workers in America, 
whose advancing age made it necessary 
for him to retire from active service 
on the board, signalized his retirement 
by presenting the city with a handsome 
pavilion to be erected in Loring Park, 
.^t his last meeting as a member of the 
board that body passed high resolutions 
commending Mr. Loring for his long 
and faithful service, and the following 
editorial from the Minneapolis Tri- 
bune is expressive of the general es- 
teem in which he is held in that city: 
“Our park system is the work of no 
one man, but the common title of fath- 
er of it given to Mr. Loring does no 
injustice to many others who have 
served the public with the same zeal and 
faithfulness. His is the fortune of long 
service, extending with brief interrup- 
tions, over twenty-three years, of high
