OBITUARY 
Edouard Andre, editor-in-chief of the 
“Revue Horticole,” of Paris, France, 
and one of the most noted horticultur- 
ists of his day and generation, died at 
La Croix (Indre-et-Loire), France, Oct. 
25, 1911, after a long illness, at the age 
of 71 years. He was the son of a horti- 
culturist, and was born at Bourges, July 
17, 1840. He early evinced a love for 
the work and in 1860 become head gard- 
ner of the city of Paris, a position he 
held for eight years. In a public com.peti- 
tion for a large park for Liverpool, Eng- 
land, Mr. Andre carried off the prize 
and secured the commission, completing 
it in 1871. His work after this became 
international, and he was engaged in 
many cities of Europe and abroad in 
park development. From an immense 
amount of material he had gathered and 
assimilated he published, in 1879, “The 
Art of Gardens,” a monumental and 
comprehensive work 
Mr. John M. Stratton, superintend- 
ent of Mt. Peace Cemetery, Philadel- 
phia, Pa., died suddenly on Novem- 
ber 14, in his 63rd year. He suffered 
a stroke of paralysis while hunting, 
and died five hours later. Fie was 
interred at Clarksboro, N. J. He was 
recently elected a member of the 
American Association of Cemetery 
Superintendents, and his sudden 
death is keenly regretted. 
We also regret to have to record 
the death of Mr. Davis Casselberry, 
superintendent of Odd Fellows’ Cem- 
etery, Philadelphia, a new member of 
the Association of American Ceme- 
tery Superintendents, which occurred 
last month. . V

^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 _ 
ressure. They have large air-chambers. a
