A New and Important Discovery
The attention of builders and business men gene
rally is called to q new roofing composition, just
being introduced by James b. Ball, advertised in
another column. The public have been duped 50
often in pstroniEing patent roofing materials that
they will receive this new one with considerable
doubt, but the principle upon which it is based
warrants more favorable results than have attend
Cd any other material ever used for this purpose.
Composed of pElverized slate and coal tar, an af-
Unity s found to exist combined In no other roof
ing composition ever before used, and experience
has demonstrated that after few weeks exposure
u the action Of the weather 1t becomes solid and
indestructsbls as NATURAL SLATE. II has been ex-
tensiyely used in eastern cities with the most
favorable results, and the Farmers Club, OF New
York, everywhere conceived to be standard author
ity, pronounce it one of tSs most remarkable dis
eoVeries Of the age. As the materials are mixed
without any heating, and less than half the other
efhuvia usually attending the use of coal tar, it
will soon supercede the common and noisome tar
boiling inventions Of all kinda.
As material for preserving new or repairing
Did and leaky mStaic roofs of all kinds it has
been equaled, aud is destined to do away with the
dangerous and explosive system Of repairing by
means Of soldsring fires, irons, &c. As preserT-
Itivs for iron or wood embedded in the earth in |
my shape or for any purpose it is most import
mt discovery, while a hre-proof paint it has
ong been used with the most satisfactory results.
