TERMS REASONABLE

during the years of overflows of the
Mississippi river. The causa, of suoa
out breaks were carefully determined.
The comparative absence of the buffalo
gnat for many years has undoubtedly
been due to the projection of the levee
system and the prevention 0f overf1ows.
No definite prediction can he made, but
the history of the insect in9this country
shows that it is more than likely that
it will occur in dangerous numbers
throughout the flooded territory during
this spring. The gnat problem was
important enough in the early days
because it resulted in the death of
thousands of plantation mules and
seemed to make the production of 1--we
stock impracticable. At this time an
outbreak would be of even greater i'm
p~ortance on account OF the recent at
tention that has been given to animal
husbandry by planters in regions which
have been invaded by the boil weevil.
The question arises as to whether it
will be safe for planters to bring in
livestock to replace that which have
been lost as soon as the overflow sub
sides.
Investigations that were conducted
for several years showed that the latest
occurrence of the baffalo gnats in num-
bers in the Mississippi delta was May
10. There is no reason to suppose that
outbreaks will occur at a later date dur
ing the present season. Consequently
it appears to be safe to restock the
plantations as soon after the present
flood leaves the lands. There is no rea
son why the present misfortune should
interfere with the judieious increase ir
livestock holdings which have been ar
important part of the preparations the
planters have made for the changed
conditions caused by the boil weevil.

Reefiing

Most roofing guarantees arc a joke.
Experience teaches the longer a roofing is guaranteed to last,
the poorer it is.
Manufacturers inexperienced in making roohngs-without
knowledge as to their dependabilty- without responsibility as
to their own financial standing, will very often
guarantee their roofing for any number IF years simply
to get the order.
The roofing generally fails and so does the firm that makes 4
and they never live to make good their guarantee.
Malthoid Roofing is made to make cool and while its
manufacturers guarantee it, their guarantee is unnecessary
because the roofing in itself is ~sufhcientto do
all that is claimed for it.
For twcnty-six years, The ParaAine Paint Co., OF
San Francisco and Chicago
have made and guaranteed their roofing and
not one single purchaser can ever say tat Company has
even hesitated to make good a guarantee.
You can depend upon the responsibility Of the makers Of
Malthoid Roofing, and you will never have to bother
about guarantees if you use Makhoid Roofing.
