ROOFING FELT—A CHEAP, DURABLE AND PER
FIXTLY 'WATERPROOF ROOFING—PRICE,, THREE CENTS
PER Squ.knr. FOOT.
Wl.ll. LEWIS, Huntingdon. Agent/of Huntingdon county.
This improved PATENT FELT MalieS R CnEAP, DURABLE and
PERFECTLY WATERPROOF ROOFING, for CHURCHES, CHAPELS,
PUBLIC HALLS, RAILROAD STATIONS, HOUSES, COTTAGES, VER
ANDAHS, FARM BUILDINGS, CATTLE and SHEEP SHEDS, and
every other description of BUILDINGS, in lieu of Tin, Zinc,
Shingles, Tiles, Thatch, &c. _ .
It costs only a fraction of a Tin or Shingle Roof and is
more dufable, as it neither CORRODES. CRACKS nor LEAKS.
It is made of the strougeht and most durable materials,
and saturated with the best of Asphalte.
It is made up in Rolls, 25 yards long, 32 inches wide,
and can be easily applied by any unpracticed person, with
a few taeßs.
It is invaluable for LINING the 'WALLS of "WOODEN HOUSES,
GI - LANAI:IEs, BARNS : &c., as rats or other vermin and insects
will not touch it.
IT Is IMPERVIOUS TO lynx, and being a YON-coNnucton,
counteracts the heat of SUMMER and the cold of WINTErt,
equalizing the temperature within every building where
it is used.
To the Agriculturist, it makes a CHEAP and EFFECTUAL
ROOFING. for FARM BUILDINGS and SHEDS; a Covmusu for
CORN and HAT BACKS, also a DErrser. for Sheep during
snow, and in the Yard as a loose covering for Turnips and
other - Fodder in Winter—the use of this FELT proves a great
annual saving to the Farmer.
It is suitable to every climate.
It is light and portable, being in Rolls, and not liable to
damage in transportation.
When used UNDER TIN 'or other Roornso, it forms a
smooth body for the metal to lie tightly on, whereby the
Tin wears much longer, not corroding beneath; nt the same
time DEADENING SOUND. Also being a NON-CONDUCTOR, it
keeps the UPPER Rooms COOL in Summer, and being WAWA:-
moor. prevents the Roof from LEAKING.
