Inspect Roof
OftentOAvOid
Leak Damage

Many a home-owner who has
put off replacing a weathered
old roof has had sincere cause
to regret it. The interior dam
age caused by leaks can be more
costly than a new roof.
The time to prevent interior
damage from leaks is before
leaks show up, and the best
method is to have the roof in
spected periodically by a re-
liable roofing contractor.
The National Bureau of Stand
ards says that patching an old
roof seldom pays. Research has
shown that roof wears out uni
formly-not in one or two places
but all over. If a weathered roof
starts to leak in one place,
chances are it soon will leak in
other spots.
Time and labor costs of re-
moving the old roof can be
saved by installing long-wear-
ing asphalt shingles over the old
roof covering. This retains the
insulating value of the old roof.
During 1856, designated as
Home Improvement Year, great
emphasis has been placed on
color, inside and out. Home
owners planning to reroof will
find that asphalt shingles come
in a wide range of solid and
blended colors suitable for any
setting or type of architecture.
Asphalt shingles are available
in many shapes that form dis
tinctive designs on the roof
These include the designs Of
fered by the three-tab square
butt strip shingle, the two or
three-tab hexagonal strip shin
gle, the individual hexagon shin
gle, the giant individual single
and the lockdown shingle.

Delaware entomologist, has re-
minded the county agents that we
need not wait until next spring
to get effective control. The in
sect is most easily controlled then,
but one can still improve the sit
uation by hand picking or spray
ing now before the present worms
become full grown. Suggested
spray materials are lead arsenate
mixed 8 pounds to 100 gallons of
water, toxaphene or malathion
mixed according to instructions on
the package.
This insect overwinters in the
egg stage in the old bags. There
fore, on small trees. and shrubs,
DR.. Stearns recommends that the
bags be hand picked and burned
as the cheapest and most effective
control measure.
