Publisher's Notes 
The fifteenth wedding anniversary of 
Mr. and Mrs. Robert D. Boice, of Gene- 
seo, 111., occurred June 29 , 1904 , and was 
quietly celebrated in the community 
where they have lived continuously for 
nearly half a century. Mr. Boyce is 
widely known among cemetery men ; he 
has traveled extensively, and, having 
taken an active interest in the manage- 
ment of his local cemetery for twenty- 
seven years, he loses no opportunity 
when away from home to visit other 
cemeteries and attend conventions, and 
thus keep posted on the advancement 
that is being made in cemetery manage- 
ment. The celebrants were generously 
remembered by their friends on the hap- 
py occasion, Mr. Boice receiving a gold- 
headed cane and his wife a gold brooch. 
Mr. John McLaren, superintendent 
Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, Cal., 
has gone on a voyage to the Mediter- 
ranean. He attended the St. Louis 
meeting of the American Civic Associ- 
ation last month. 
Kroeschell Bros. Co., of Chicago, 
whose steel plate greenhouse boilers are 
advertised on another page, announce 
that their new catalog will be issued 
August 15 , and will be pleased to hear 
from park and cemetery officials who 
are interested. 
H. R. McKeag, of Claysville, Pa., 
writes to know of some method for 
exterminating ants and moles, and 
would like to hear from others who 
have had experience with them.
