Ask the Old Farmer Why do those
famous New England brick houses I
read about last 300 years? D.Y, Santa
Cruz, Calif.
Most had slate roofs with plenty of over
hang. which were good for many years.
Thebrick walls were at least eight inches
thick with the outside layer of brick
baked harder than the inside to shed water.
Home Hint*; Moths won't come into your closet if you keep dried orange peel
on the shelf.
