Showing a Roof Covered
with Brantford Slates
in Solid Color.
There is Safety
U $ ider This Roof
Have you ever had a fine job of decorating spoiled by a leaking
roof? If you have, you certainly are in ayposition to appreciate the value
of a roof that is positively water -proof. Some of the troubles common to
wooden shingles to -day are that they are apt to split, warp or blow off as
well as leak, sooh after they are put on. Years ago they were gond, but
the quality has since gradually depreciated as tho available supply of
.suitable timber became exhausted.
Brantford Slates have none of the faults of wooden shingles. They
cannot rust. They do not allow rain to be driven under them as do
metal roofs. They do not require rigid supporting as do the common tile
or slate roofs, On the other hand Brantford Slates afford the utmost
protection with little weight. They are made on a long -fibred felt
"base" which is thoroughly saturated under pressure with asphaltum or
mineral pitch. Crushed quarried slate particles are then deeply embed-
ded in the surface of this "base', making it water -tight and fireproof.
tf ort
fing
Brantford Slates are made in the natural slate colors of green, red,
black and grey. The colors never fade and the slates do not require
painting nor repairing. These slates are pliable and fit readily around
gables and into the angles of any roof. This means a continuous roof
without seams or joints. Sparks die on Brantford Slates. When you
have these slates "on" you are done with the job. Remember they don't
require painting or staining and may be selected to harmonize With al-
most any exterior color design, and the price is not beyond your reach.
We would be pleased to send you samples and our Roofing Booklet.

BAYFIELD.
The fishing at Bayfield this Spring is
better than it has been for many years,
and perch which was formerly thrown
out because there was no market for it,
has now a ready sale at 60 cents or more
per pound. As the perch are secured in
the shallow water near the share, the
fishing is quite profitable. The trout
fishing is also exceedingly" good and
