LOOKOUTIORLESKS 



A leaky roof on your hen-house will cost vmi a cood 

 many dollars in loss. You needn't expect any profits if 

 the water drips or pours all over your poultry every 

 lime it rains or snows. 



"STAR" FELT ROOFING 



makes a water-tight, "just riglit" roof for the hen- 

 house. Will keep your poultry dry and warm so they 

 can work and .save you all the loss the leaks cause. 

 It's cheaper, looks better, and is better than shingles 

 or metal, and lasts longer; made in 1, 2 and 3 ply. 

 especially for poultry houses and coops. You lay it 

 yourself. Write for prices and free samples today.
