MRS BULHER Synopsis of an address given by T, lUyiior, lloBo Hull, Uiit. , before the John, N. B., Fiu'iners' Institute. Wherever a fnimer is buihliuK new burns or chanj^ing hiBstitbles.theijiiestioii of the use of coocretu fur floors iiiid walls is u live one In a country where lumber is compara- tively cheap concrete is not likely to come int4> general use for making wulla of barns, but for ticioring it is without question the best and cheapest substance that can be employed. Its first great quality is durability. Properly put down it is practically indestructible. Then it is water t>i>lit and wilt help in saving all the liquid voidings of the aninmlH, and this in farm practice to-day is an import- ant matter. Fully 50 f)or cent, of tho fertilizing value of manure is tho liquid poitimi. By having concrete flours and using plenty of sbsorbents this can all bo saved and put on the land where it will do the most good. Concrete is a mixture of clean gravel or pure sand and cement There are several kinds (if cement. In Ontario they have natural rock cement, which is nianufac tured at QueoMStciu and Tliorold.and this, while nut as strong as Portland cement, is cheaper iind does very well. In 8<iino sections the Portland cement will bo the best to use. Laying concrete doors, does not re- quire skill which an intelligent farmer cannot supply. First make a solid smooth floor, 12 ft. scjuare, two inch lumber pre- ferred Then a box without a bottom should be made in which to mix the gravel and cernent. This can be made of such a size as to accurately measure tho gravel or sand. The gravel and cement are then put into this box iu the pmpor- tiiin reijuired, the box taken off, and the mixing of cement and gravel or sand thoroughly done with a shovel. It should be shovelled over twice at any rate, while it is dry, and shovelled up into a cone ;. then before applying the water the con- crete should be pulled down makiug the mixture in tho form of ariiii;,leavingah(dc low in the centre bare to the floor. Into this water should be poured, and dry gravel and cemei>tturned from theoutside of the ring to the centre. This will be pulled out again from the centre and more water added until the .mixture becomes of tho consistency of thick porridge, so it will rundown but not be soft. The pro- portions in which gravel or cement can be used depends soniewhaton the strength of the cement. With good Portland cement one part of cement to six or seven of gravel could be used for the lower part of the floor, but this should be covered with 11 voueer of one part of cement to two of clean sand. If .ui extra h:ird linish is required use e(iual partii of cement and sand. Before laying the stable floor a good foundation should be prepared. It should bo made tirni and solid by tVie addition of gravel or small stones thoroughly pounded down and the floor shaped as is required for the stable. It ia best to have a sUght slope from tho manger to tho gutter. Tho plan of cow stable which is generally preferred has a 8(]uare gutter two fet wide and einht inches below the level of tho stall floor. This gutter if first made and the cement laid in it. Then a board mould i.s put up and the cement put in behind the boards and the b.iards left there until tho cement gets firm. In laying concrete only as much aa can bo conveniently reached, say a piece four feet s(|Uare,Khould be laid at a time. All the studding necessary in the consttuotion of tho st'dls should be set on fist stones a. id the cement put round them. Great care should be taken when liiying cement to thoroughly pound it down. After the floor Is finished it should be sprinkled wiih water especially if iho weather is dry. This should be done every day for a month. It will probably take from a nionlh to six weeks for a floor to harden properly and sutlicieiitly to use, and it will probably not become thoroujilily hard for six or seven months after having been put in. Large stones can and should be used in the construction of a ciinciuto wall, if piiiiis are taken to see that they are covered with at least two inches of cement on either side. A con- crete whII one foot thick ia suflicieiiily strong to curry any burn. This mukes a thoroughly warm and dry stable wull. Fine stone from a stone crusher is an ex- cellent material from which to make con- crete. A biirrol of roA cement will luy 65 square feet of 4 inch floor. Good qualities of Portland cement should do more than that. By the use of corrugated sleepers like railway rails it is quite pructiuible to make floor which would form the ceiling of the storey below. The sleepers should preferably be'niake of iron , and lai<l suf- Hoently close to make the structure solid. Such a floor prevents leuksg" through to the space beneath.

Tht aggreuble, pene- trating vapor traverses every air cell and passage of the nose, throat and lung8. In one breath it carries instant death to the millions of germs infesting the respiiatory organs and breaks up a cold in ten min- utes. A trial will convince you that Catarrh - ozoze ia the most potent, satisfactory and pleasant cure for colds, catarrh, deafness, bronchitis, asthma and lung tronble.

Ann Jane Irwin of Mulmer, who was charged with setting fire to the barns of Isaac Bowers, also of Mulmer, has been acquitted by Magistrate PatuUo. The evidence against her was very weak. Some time ago Miss Irwin sued Bowers for breach of pron'ise of marriage. As Mr. Hugh Gallagher of King town- ship was descending backward from the straw stack, the ladder sw.-iyed outward, throwing hin? with tremendous force to the ground. When picked up it was found tho unfortunate man had sustained injuries to the spine, from which it was deemed impossible to recover, all the ribs of one side being broken and three on the other side, beside other internal in- juries One of the most curious finds that has occurred in this country for some time was made on Tuesday by Geo. Seacock, who lives to the north of the Pacific Ho- tel, in Wiartion. It appears that he found one of the flues., of his business place out of order, and went on the roof rto learn the cause of the difficulty. The roof is a flat one, and to his suprise. near tlie chimney he found lying two large snakes, one over six feet in length and tho other over five feet. They were both dead, and apparently had l>een for some weeks. In color they were yellow with brown spots, and' were evidently coppor snakes. How they came there is ft mystery. Tliey are certainly a foreign reptile, which makes the matter more rnystifyii.g. F'£i.x*nii for Sale osprsy. b»l.
