Boyer has been.crossing watch- man at this place for two years. In that time he has made a combina- tion vegetable and flower garden on the small space, formerly used as a dumping ground. The improvement ranks with the best work in landscape gardening, considering' the surround- ings. , "i ; *' Raise* Everything. Bvery garden vegetable and almost every flower which thrives to this climate, has been raised on the "made* garden. Where heaps of tin cans, rubbish and cinders two years ago were the unsightly objects for the thousands of passengers on the Elevated and Milwaukee electric lines to gaze upon, today a beautiful garden of flowers of every variety, and garden stuff, which would do credit Jjwt «•* *t up. to the best truck farm, now greets the passengers' eyes. It is a pleasing relief from the dingy objects usually strung along railroad tracks, and thousands have complimented Mr. Boyer upon his success. Even offi- cials of the Northwestern Elevated lines have personally visited the lit- tle beauty patch, as they call it, plucked bouquets and gathered fresh garden truck. In recognition of this initiative taken to improve the right-of-way of the company, Boyer was rewarded this summer by the company by being given extra employment in supplying the flower boxes and plants which adorn the crossing towers and sta- tions to the loop aSstrietr to Chicago. However, the many floral plants do not thrive in the scorched city, be- bages almostI'as large as a dtshpan are promised by Boyer. In the flower section it is estimated FlfSt SftflSnn that LOW ttmonehv and probably nraiMasor» more, of the sweet-scented, old-fash- ioned flowers have been plucked and given to the passersby. Chief among these are young women who clerk to the stores, who each morning stop at the patch and at the solicitation of Mr. Boyer "help themselves." Occa- sionally tubs of the flowers are sent to the Woman's club building.

In the first lnspec- tiot, milk sold by one dalrrman •bowed a total of nearly 7,000,000 bac- teria to the cubic centimeter, a. cubic centimeter of milk equals about thirty drops. The result of thli teat was alarming and the dealer wa» noti- fied. He serves the residents of the southwest section of the city and does sot pasteurize the milk he sella, a test made a week later of ini,k sold by this same dealer showed 890,- 000 bacteria. The ordinance concerning the sale of milk in Evanston has no clause gov- erning the standard of bacteria to be contained to milk sold. According to Mr. Moulton, the standard for bac- teria is about 260,000 per cubic centl meter. In the tests made, milk add by three dealers showed a much higher count of bacteria than this standard. § Milk Not Watered Here. J' Tbere is one tidng that Evanston- ians can rest assured of, and that is that the milk they get from the dairy men is not watered. This can be de- termined by the reading of refract© meter taken by the inspector. The standard reading should be about 41 degrees, if it is less than 39 degrees, it denotes that water has been added. I The lowest reading in all the samples I taken was 40 degrees.

It Is not run for profit or gain. On the other hand, several employes of the Elevat- ed company have been supplied with fresh, wholesome garden truck this spring and summer without a cent of expense, thus showing the kindly spirit which guides toe crossing watchman to his work Several poor families to the neighborhool also have been benefited with gifts of many vegetables from the garden. But it must bd known that this big improvement has not been accom- plished without much hard work by Boyer, all of which was done either in the early morning before he start- ed on his twelve hours of duty to guard the public from danger or acci- dent or after he had flnlshed his day's VOrk Last year the garden was to its inception. Earth and manure was hauled to wheelbarrow loads from nearby lots to cover up the barren hole partly fluea *Hh cinders and tin cans. On the north end of the lot a large Quantity of sod was cut and placed on. the parking of the street and between the several flower beds in the garden. One great handicap has prevented Mr. Boyer from having even greater success with his plants, is the lack of water. He dug a ten-foot well, walled it and then placed two large barrels to contain the water, to the long, continued drouth this sanuner, this water supply was exhausted snd the plant Hfe suffered.
