WETTING OF BRICKWORK

Trouble and Expense Can Be Elimi-

Tests Show.

The wetting of brickwork for pc

with concrete construction, does not
add to the strength of the brickwork.
This unnecessary expense and trouble
may safely be eliminated.
The Bureau of Standards by
series of tests has proven that no de-
Cided increase is found in the strength
of the wetted walls over those of the
same type of construction which We're
unsprinkled. For q period of more
than six months the walls have been

After the removal of the wet 'burlap
