YIII 
PARK AND CEMETERY. 
It has such a wide variety of attractions 
that there has been a constant and grow- 
ing demand for information about its 
grounds that could not be adequately 
answered by private correspondence. 
This demand has led Mr. M. H. West, 
former superintendent of the Lincoln 
Park system, to compile an “Illustrated 
Guide” to the park that is one of the 
most comprehensive and interesting 
books that has ever been published about 
a single park. It not only gives an au- 
thentic history of the park, and a de- 
scription of its principal features, but 
serves as a comprehensive guide to its 
scientific displays. There is a descrip- 
tion of the collections in the Chicago 
Academy of Sciences, of the famous 
Zoo, a complete list of the trees and 
shrubs on the grounds and the plants in 
the conservatories, and interesting de- 
scriptive matter about the floral and ar- 
boreal beauties, buildings, monuments 
and other features of the park. It is 
profusely illustrated, handsomely printed 
and contains a hundred pages. The mat- 
ter was all prepared by Mr. West, and 
is complete, authoritative and interest- 
ing. The book is for sale at fifty cents 
by Mr. West’s new organization, the 
Western Gardening & Forestry Co., 815 
Steinway Hall, Chicago. 
The Department of Agriculture at 
W ashington has recently issued Circular 
175 of the Forest Service on “The 
Growth and Management of Douglas 
Fir in the Pacific Northwest,” by Thorn- 
ton T. Munger, an illustrated monograph 
of 28 pages.

^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 for 
all uses— distributing agencies in principal cities.
