KEENE'S PATENT MARBLE CEMENT.— This 

 CEMENT is particularly adapted for the Walls and Floors 

 of Conservatories and Greenhouses, beii'g calculated, from it3 

 extreme hardness, to resist the wear incident to ordinary Plas- 

 tering. For Floors it has a threefold advantage over Stone- 

 paving. 1st, in its lightness ; one inch in thickness of Keene's 

 Cement sufficing where 2 to 3-inch flagging would be employed. 

 Next, in its appearance, combining, as it does, the hardness of 

 stone with a uniform colour and even surface free from joints ; 

 and lastly, in economy, being one-third the price of Portland 

 paving. 



The most conclusive evidence can be given of the utility of

 nufacturers.— John Bazley. White and Sons, Milbank-street,

 no Cheating or caustic materials, bring simply and purely Fertil- 

 isers. Five cwt. of either of them is equal to nearly 30 tons of 

 horse-manure as a Fertiliser. They are used, the one for all the 

 Tarieties of Corn, Peas, Beans, Chicory, &c., and the other for 

 Turnips, Mangold Wurzel, Natural and Artificial Grasses, and all 

 Gardening purposes. This is the best protector yet discovered 

 against the Fly in Turnips, for it Rives a first jrrowth three weeks

•■ From Chemistry alone further progress in Agriculture is to 

 be expected."— Liebig. 



In this School, in addition to the general routine studies, 

 every facility is afforded for the acquisition of a sound know- 

 ledge of Chemistry. The Pupils are practically taught in the 

 Laboratories the methods of analysing the various earths, soils, 

 manures, &c.j and likewise the means of detecting the bi 



ances abstracted from the land by different crops. Land Sur- 

 veying is also taught practically, as well as theoretically. 



A copy of a Lecture on Agricultural Chemistry, delivered by 

 Mr. J.C. NEsniTto the Maidstone Farmers' Club, and the Tei 

 of the School, which vary from 40 gs. to 70 gs. per annum, may
