'.s s;1 !I'a it'il!'•t The foundation is not the s st .important thing True, you can't have a good barn without a good foundation. but don't forget either that the roof has to stand most of the punishment. Upon it falls the burden of resisting the destructive influences of weather and changing seasons. Now, the question is "Where am I going to find a roof • which will meet these conditions?" Certainly not in wooden shingles which have rapidly deteriorated during the past few years. Not in anything so perishable as wood, nor yet iron, which lets in driving rain, but rather in a permanent mineral composition such as Brantford Roofing. Now, let us look at a section of Brantford Roofing. First,, you notice it has a pure, long -fibred felt base. This is thoroughly saturated with a filler coat of asphalt or mineral pitch. Then it is given another coat. Finally, the surface is thickly covered with crushed slate. Yon can imagine what a job rain, snow, fire or heat would have penetrating a roof like that. As for comparing Brant.f rd Nature's • 'iettera Koofing proofing with shintles'on the score of permanency, or protection,, or appearance, or even economy, there is no comparison. You put a Brantford Roof on once, and -it will last as long as the building; it will always look well and it will never need repairing, 'why not let its'soh,ti you 9emp1ca, also a copy of our booklet watch explains how Brantford Rooan is always on the jab?
