PARK AND 
CEMETERY. 
GOOD PLANTS MAY BE A LITTLE 
MORE EXPENSIVE — IT COSTS 
MORE TO GROW THEM-BUT THEY 
ARE WORTH THE DIFFERENCE 
T HE superiority of trees and shrubs properly 
grown over ordinary stock is so evident that 
any trifling difference in the first cost is offset 
by the results obtained. First cost is of secondary 
importance. Best results are what you want. They 
can only be had with good stock. 
We offer a most complete assortment of plants that 
have been properly grown. They are plants that will 
give satisfaction. Send for our Fall Catalogue. It 
is just out.

What Cemetery Superintendents 
Need to Know 
The need for exact information about other cemeteries, 
laws relating to the dead, etc., often comes to the Ceme- 
tery Superintendent. 
Fairchild Cemetery Manual 
gives in compact form the greatest amount of such in- 
formation that was ever compiled. 
The legal information alone is worth ten times the cost 
of the book. 
No cemetery superintendent who has ever examined the 
Manual would do without it. 
$1.00 in paper covers $1.50 in cloth binding
