gate the merits of their boiler, and a 
special invitation is extended to visiting 
members of the Association of Ameri- 
can Cemetery Superintendents to call 
at their factory during the convention 
and inspect their work. These boilers 
are in use at the principal greenhouses 
in and around Chicago, a list of which 
will be mailed on application. 
A device that will interest managers 
of parks and cemeteries is the Buckeye 
Surface Heater, Weed Burner and 
Ground Thawer, manufactured by Wal- 
ter Macleod & Co., 463 East Front St., 
Cincinnati, O. Kerosene oil is used for 
fuel, and the machine is simple in oper- 
ation. When used for repairing asphalt 
pavements the intense heat that is gen- 
erated welds the old and new materials 
together and obviates any possible trou- 
ble from climatic action. As a weed 
burner and ground thawer it has proven 
a great labor saver and does its work 
very effectively. An illustration of the 
machine may be seen in the advertise- 
ment of the company on another page 
in this issue.

Receiving Vaults 
a Specialty 
Every piece of stone used in constructing vaults of this description is composed of accurately 
proportioned parts of the highest grade of cement, the cleanest and sharpest sand and pure 
water. The mortar thus formed is carefully packed in moulds, under constant pressure, 
and, after setting, becomes harder and harder by exposure to the air. 
The under ground walls of a vault are constructed of one solid mass of concrete without 
seams w hich prevents water from seeping through thus giving au advantage over stone.
