The Mexican Method of Making Hard Lime Floors
Some years since, the writer had occasion to visit Northern Mexico to examine and work some silver mines; and, while passing through the Mexican villages, noticed the exceedingly hard and polished lime floors and roofs of the houses. In the village of Salinas, where our party remained some three weeks, the horses passed daily through the house into the inner court-yard over one of these floors without leaving an indentation, or injuring it, in any way.
