PARK AND CEMETERY. 
best makes are advertised in these col- 
umns. 
Cemetery extensions should only be 
made under the direction of competent 
landscape engineers. Adopt the lawn 
plan for all additions. 
The reasonable price of terra cotta 
and concrete lot and grave marks leaves 
no excuse for unmarked graves and lots. 
Arbor vitae evergreen boughs for lin- 
ing and covering graves are said to be 
better than any other evergreens for this 
purpose. They are bought by some 
cemeteries in carload lots during the fall. 
It is really surprising to know how 
indifferent many communities are con- 
cerning the records of their dead. In 
many fair-sized towns the only burial 
records are those kept by the local un- 
dertaker. 
Tents should be more generally used 
for protection at funeral services when 
held in the cemetery. Lot holders will- 
ingly pay for their use, thereby produc- 
ing a revenue for the cemetery. 
The Kroeschell Improved Greenhouse 
boilers are in use at Calvary, Graceland, 
Rosehill, Forest Home, Oakwoods and 
Mt. Olive cemeteries, Chicago, and in 
scores of other greenhouses in this vi- 
cinity. They are made of steel and are 
endorsed by users as being economical in 
the consumption of fuel. A descriptive
