Roofing.
LOOK TO YOUR ROOFS.
Having secured the state
RIGHT OF THE
PATENT MICA ROOFING,
We are now prepared to supply it in any
quantity, or to apply it to Roofs.
The MICA ROOFING is adapted to build
ings of every description, and can bo ap
plied to Steep or Flat Roofs, or over old
Shingle Roofs, without removing the shin
gles. We recommend its use on Factories,
Foundries, Store Houses, Cotton Sheds,
Railroad Depots and npon all buildings
where steam is used, and a Fire Proof re
quired.
It costs about ono-half the price of
Tin.
It is cheap, durable, and is easily and
quiekly applied. The upper surface of the
Roofing is protected from the action of the
weather, by its covering of Ground Mica,
which is pressed into the water proof com
position, making a hard surface of stone,
beautiful in appearance, and a sure protec
tion against fire.
We shall also keep constantly on hand a
upply of
INDIA-RUBBER ROOFING PAINT,
trhich is the best coating that can bo used
for Tin Roofing. Leaky Tin Roofs can be
readily repaired, so as to last many years,
at a trifling cost, which would in many
cases save the expense of anew Roof.
FhII directions tor applying, and prices,
sent on application.
