HOUSE COVERING.

FTNHE subscribers having made great in,
provemeat il fire proof covering, and
obtained a patent for the same, offer the ben
eft of il to the public.
The improv ement consists in using fasienngs
which are locked in the grooves and nailed to
The sheetng plank. By this means. no nail Is
driven through the tin. and the nails are quite
protected ogains, the weather, which etfecuhi
iy prevents them from rusting, and the roofs
ieaking-whereas, on the old plan, the nails
are all driven through the sheets, and tho COW
cred by the grooves. they are nevertheless
wet by every RAIN which, in no great length OF
time rusts them off. Consequently, loosing the
Tin from the roof and oeccasioning thousands
OF leaks. This fact is well known.
Another advantage on the new plan is, that
there is no occasion of The sheeting plank be-
ing kiln dried, nor more than three quarters OF
an inch thick. And again tpn old houses no
thing is required but to take off the old shingles
and put on the tin or sheeling. This makes as
good roof as can be made, and saves the
whole expense of sheeting anew.
