Housea RniIt OF PAPER.


Paper Trade Reporter.l
We sometimes hear Of building houses
on paper, but building a house Of paper
is something Of a novelty. Yet there is
a large mandatory in Wisconsin that
keeps three mills constantly running on
building paper, having capacity for the
making of sixteen tons per day The
business was started by q Yankee, of
course; or rather two Of them. AS long
ago as 1851 the company began tie
manufacture Of paper for building. The
idea that paper could be chesply and ad.
v%antageously used in the erection Of
buildings-especially the home Of the
prairie farmer on the bleak plains of the
northwest-originated with them. They
expended money freely in mills, nschin.

under all circumstances, and has been
a decided success.
The paper used for building purposes
is a thick, hard ~pasteboard, wound in
rolls Of twenty FIVE to a hundred pounds
each, and usually thirty two inches wide.

subject to a pressue Of hundreds VI tons,
which compress the fbers together into
one solid body, hut making an absolute

the best non.conductors known, il resists

winter and cool in summer 1t does not
shrink like lumber, and is not affected BY
frost, cold, heat or dampness, and it is
known that it will not burn as readily as
wood on account Of its hardness and
solidity, and by its use a house can be
made almost, if not absolutely, tight. II
is far better for the retention Of warm air
in a building than an inch board.
