PUBLISHER’S NOTES 
The publisher would advise sub- 
scribers who are in the habit of filing 
the issues of Park and Cemetery and 
are desirous of securing back num- 
bers, that many numbers are now out 
of print, especially those containing 
articles on Perpetual Care in Ceme- 
teries. 
Weeds are often 
undesirable in ponds, 
streams, rivers, lakes, 
etc. Please notice the 
simple and effective 
operation of the 
Submarine Weed 
Cutting Saw 
above. The weeds 
are cut at the roots 
and floating down stream. The device may be handled in lengths to a great extent from the 
banks, or just as well from boats on larger lakes. In use by many Parks and Cemeteries, and high- 
ly recommended here and abroad. Write for illustrated circular, references, etc.
