Masonry Joint Protector.
The protection of masonry joints,
to avoid the loosening and falling
out Of mortar which makes leakage
possible, Is one Of the big problems
in the care of q masonry home.
Therefore, news Of q new, elastic,
permanent joint seal is of interest
to any one planning to build new
masonry walls or desiring to repair
leaky masonry joints.
The new seal consists of formed
lead strip with a cross member wide
enough to overlap the masonry Joint
on the outside, and having on its
underside grooves which anchor 1t
to the caulking compound with
which the joint is filled. The caulk-
ing material has the give" which
makes the joint respond to expan-
sion and contraction due to temper
ature changes, while the lead strip
or cap Is strong, durable and i'm
pervious to sunlight and air.
To repair a loose Joint, the old
mortar must be raked out and the
joint packed overfull of caulking
compound. Then the lead strip is
cut to size and notched for the
corners. embedded in the compound.
AS the lead cap is pressed into the
Joint excess compound is forced into
the bonding grooves on the under
side of its cross r1AnohAr forV,i,,r .
tight, waterproof and lasting joint.
The lead cap is made in various
widths. in two shapes to provide for
coverage of stones set both parallel
and at right angles to each other,
and In three sizes. 1t is particularly
good for joints in copings, cornices,
window sills, steps and glass block
walls. You can get sufficient num-
Der of the lead caps for joints in
100 feet of coping d2-inch) in
4-foot units for about $3.50.

BEETLES APPEAR FOR
ANNUAL SUMMER VISIT
tcoatinusd from Firus Pass,

second application should follow
seven to 10 days later and a third at
the height OF the beetle season. Lime
and aluminium sulfate or arsenate of
lead and wheat -four are among the
cheaper spray materials to use but
they leave a heavy residue on the
sprayed plants. A combination Of
derris and rOsin residue or the Du
POnt Japanese beetle spray with
rOsin residue will give protection
and does not leave an unsightly resi-
due. Valuable ornamental plants
can be protected by enclosing them
in cheeseclOth before the beetles ap-
pear. Sweet corn in the home gar
den is easily protected by busting
the silks as soon as they appear with
hydrated lime. Two or three appli-
cations of the lime are needed a day
or two apart to produce good ears
of corn"
Further information concerning
sprays and materials used for Japan
ese beetles can be obtained by writ !
ing Mr.. Amos at the University Of
Delaware, Newark.
