g(Sffcultural* Hard C>*ment.- —The following cement has been used with great success in cover ing terraces, lining basins, soldering of stones, etc., and everywhere resists the filtration of water. It is so hard that it scratches iron. It is formed of ninety three parts of well burned brick, and seven - of litharge, made plastic with lin _.l oil. The brick and litharge are pul verized ; the latter must always be reduced to a very fine powder } they are mixed to gether. and enough of linseed oil added. It is then applied in the manner of plaster, the body that is to be covered being always previously wetted with a sponge. This precaution is indispensible, otherwise the oil would filter through the body, and pre vent the mastic from acquiring the desired degree of hardness, hen it is extended over a large surface, it sometimes happens to have flaws in it, which must- be filled up with a fresh quantity of the cement. In three or four days it becomes firm and solid. Like Produces Like. —Having long been a believer in the -saying that u like produ ces like," I have always acted upon the principle as far as practicable with the means at my command. Naturally desiring a good crop, I there fore procure good seed wherefrom to grow it, always finding myself amply repaid for the additional trouble and expense. In regard to the potato crop, which is everywhere acknowledged to be a failure, I desire to say a few Unlike many of my neighbors, if I consider my own -seed not very good, I obtain some which are; from which mode I have derived un looked for results. Last spring I procured some pure Mer cers and planted them, but not having enough, I finished with some of my own of an inferior quality. In digging them lately, I found the pure seed entirely free from njt, ich il* the others were almost de stroyed by it. What makes me think thai it is not mere accident, is because a friend of mine had the same result. If the above does not always hold good, a person will never regret having procured the best of seed, of whatever variety. War upon Weeds. —Of these we have had an extra number, and a most luxuriant growth during the present year. Some weeks ago we solicited attention to this fact, and to the necessity growing out of it for extra exertions to subdue them and prevent them from going to seed. As a large pro portion of farmers are very careless in re gard to the eradication of weeds, and as such carelessness will be more productive of mischief this year than it is usually, it may not be a work of supererogation to call attention to tbe subject once more.— Though now late, it is not yet too late to mow down or pull up these pests, and to place them in piles, either for burning or for fermentation. Much better will it be, at all events, to get rid of all weed-seeds not yet scattered by winds, birds, Ac., even at this late period, than to give them anv additional opportunities for dissemination. Thousands of these seeds may yet be de stroyed in gardens and fields. Let tbe standing weeds be cut down and collected into piles, so as to be burned or rotted, for which latter purpose the corners of fences, where there are worm fences still in exis tence, or other waste places, will be the most appropriate. Sprinkle over the heaps some ashes or lime, if convenient to the house, and cover with a few sods. If not i,c*t year, then at least the year after, these heaps of rotted weeds will be of some use as manure, and all danger from the seeds either entirely or very nearly at an end.— Country Gentleman.
