LEAKS IN CEMENT JOINTS. 



What will stop leaks in eeinent joints 

 of 4-inch cast-iron pipes? I put them 

 in this season, using 2 parts of Portland 

 cement to 1 part sand. The water oozes 

 out through the cement. 



The oozing of water through the Port- 

 land cement joints in 4-inch cast-iron 

 pipes described by R. C. A. may be from 

 two causes, namely, the use of too coarse 

 sand or insufficient tamping of the ce- 

 ment in the joints. It is well when mak- 

 ing cement joints to fill about one-half 

 the joint with oakum well soaked in 

 and smeared with cement, caulking it in 

 pretty solidl}', and then fill the balance 

 of the joint with the cement and sand 

 mixture. Henry W. Gibbons.

CHEAP-TO CLOSE OUT 



St. Joseph, jMich. — A new retail store 

 has been opened here as an outlet for the 

 product of the greenhouses at Glen Lord, 

 owned by M. J. Ball, a board of trade 

 man in Chicago, and managed by Gus 

 Frederiekson. The product has hereto- 

 fore been sold on commission in Chicago 

 and to retailers here. The latter look 

 upon the new competition with some 

 alarm, feeling that an attempt is being 

 made to freeze them out. 



FRAMINGHAM, MASS.— Wm. Nicholson has 

 for four years in succession won the first prize 

 of $30.00 offered by the Massachusetts Horticul- 

 tural Society for the best house of carnations.
