Make Dry Cement Floors.
Many farmers would like to
use concrete for floors in stables,
and for other uses, but on ac
count of dampness absorbed by
this material, they have found it
unsuitable. Experiments have
been going on for a long time at
the Public Roads Department,
Washington, D. C, and it has
been found that oil used in the
proportion of one-tenth of the
weight of cement, and mixed in
a certain way, will insure a dry
floor and in no wise impair the
strength of the floor or wall. Bui
letin No. 230 of the Department
of Public Roads, Washington, D,
C, gives full directions. Do not
undertake to mix the materials
before receiving these instruc
tion,

ner, McConnellsburg,
Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than
good music. To have good music you must have a good
instrument. There are..good bad and indifferent instru
v ments, and to the unskilled eye they look much alike.
The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay a
first-class price for a fourth-class instrument. I have
lived in this county since my birth, I ama taxpayer and
in a position to make good any business transactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola from me and if it is
not all right you can come back at me.
There are families in every part of this county that
have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about
me. . .
v
Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano,
or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See
me. Let's talk it over.J
