iDAROID roofing is the most econom- 



r ical, the most durable, and the most 



satisfactory of all ready roofings. 



The above illustration is from a photo- 

 graph of the Plant Industry Building, U. 

 S. Department of Agriculture, Washing- 

 ton, D. C. 



It is located in the heart of the city, 



for 



and is covered with Paroid Roofing. 



The Government also uses Paroid 

 stables, barracks, warehouses, etc. 



It uses Paroid because it finds nothing 

 its equal. 



Uncle Sam is a careful buyer. 



It will pay you to follow his example. 



The illustration below shows 



ROID ROOFING 



on all the buildings of the Monmouth Poultry Farm, 

 Freneau, N. J. This is one of the biggest poultry- 

 farms in the country, and we would like nothing bet- 

 ter than to have you write to these people and get 

 their opinion of Paroid for roofing and siding. 



Thousands of other poultry-raisers, dairymen, and 

 general farmers all over tlie country are keeping 

 their buildings dry and warm with Paroid. 



The basis of Paroid is an extra strong and heavy 

 felt, which insures permanency and durability. 



The extra saturation this felt receives in our special 

 solution makes it absolutely proof against heat and 

 cold. 



It keeps the cold out. 



It keeps the heat in. 



Sparks and cinders have no effect upon it. 



It is proof against gas and acids. 



Remember! Paroid contains no tar. 



The dressing it receives contains nothing that will 

 taint rain water. 



It will not run or crack in any climate. 



Aside from all of its real substantial qualities, peo- 

 ple like it because it is easy to put on. 



A complete roofing kit is packed in every roll, and 

 this enables any one to put it on in any kind of 

 weather. 



And when it is once put on it stays put. 



Besides, it doesn't require painting when first laid 

 either. 



There is just one reason for the universal use of 

 Paroid, and that is quality. 



And the reason for that quality is close to a cen- 

 tury's experience. 



The mills where Paroid is made were established in 

 1817. 



There is roofing knowledge in it, and a record back 

 of it. 



It is the standard in quality, yet low in price.

If it pays to protect live stock from cold and wind 

 and rain and sun. it pays to use Paroid Roofing. 



If it pays to protect farm implements, grain, and 

 hay from the weather, it pays to use Paroid Roofing. 



Wherever a roof is needed 

 It pays to use Paroid, 

 The Roofing that Lasts. 



If you think of putting up a building, or repairing 

 an old one, Send for a Free Sample of Paroid, and ask 

 for the name of our nearest dealer. 



We have a book of poultry and farm building plans 

 that is worth a good deal of money to any one 

 who thinks of putting up a barn or any sort of out- 

 building. 



You can have one of these valuable books free by 

 sending a two-cent stamp to cover postage. 



Write for the sample and the book now while you 

 think of it.
