Plants for Evergreen Cemetery.

To the Editor Of the Press:
In your issue of the 10th inst, l find an ar
tlcle on Evergreen Cemetery entitled ''Some
Of the plans of tho Board of Trustees" In
which 1t is said that they contract with Mr..
Burr of Freeport for the plants required for
decorative purposes, he being the only man
able to supply them In the quantity required.
Now this assertion is, to say the lea st of If.
misleading and unfair to others. There are
three florists establishments within five
minutes walk of the entrance to the ceme-
terry, either Of them capable Of producing all
the plants required, and under the encOur
agement of a contract. enough to cover 1t all
over. These firms have repeatedly sent in
bids for furnishing the plants required but
Mr.. Burr has, for several years, been award
ed the job.
Every year these plants are shipped frem
Freeport to .MorrilPs Corner by car load,
thus necessitating several times handling.
On arriving at the cemetery, owing to a too
small force to handle them quickly, they lie
about on the ground for some days before
they can be cared for, ard consequently can
not be as fresh or of as good an appearance
as though direct from a greenhouse. Now,
either Of the firms In question could turn out
their goods at an hours notice, fresh and In
quantities to suit, and thus the plants would
not be of that stunted and dried-up appear
ance that has been remarked by many visit
ors to that beautiful "city of the dead"

my little daughters lie was saved, as we
pelieve, by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Before she was
six months old scrofula sores began to appear on
different parts of her body, and in short time

called but they gave US no hope. One OF them
advised the amputation of one of her fingers, to
which we refused assent. Our attention was
called to Hoods Sarsaparilla, and we began CIV

after she had taken only one bottle, and by
continued use of 1t her recovery was complete.
