ing, See. It has been tested in the rdens of several noblemen 

 and gentlemen in the neighbourhood of Lond and in different 

 parts of the country, to whom reference can be made. The Felt 

 impervious to rr-in, snow, and frost, and a non-conductor of heat 

 and sound. Its advantages are Lightness, Warmth, Dumblity, 

 and Economy.— Price Only Owi Pknnv pkr Sqlark Foot.

 its merits, sent free to any part of the town or country.— Patent

TO LANDOWNERS, AGRICULTURISTS, BUILDERS, &e. 



Y/rcKIBBIN'S Improved ROOFING FELT is 



ItLL peculiarly applicable as a substitute for Slate, Zinc, 

 Tiles, and other articles used for Roofing, from its ECONOMY, 

 LIGHTNESS, and DURABIL1 PT. 



The disadvantages attending other materials used in roofing, 

 preventing, to a great extent, many useful houses and sheds 

 being erected or rendered waterproof, it is submitted that 

 the improved Roofing Felt will in s great measure— and in some 

 instances altogether — obviate them, and prove most service- 

 able from its lightness, durability, and impermeability to water 

 and damp, in covering Houses, Cattle-sheds, Workshops, Rope- 

 walks, &c, and for the sides, as well as roofs, of light struc- 

 tures for plants, being likewise a non-conductor of heatj be- 

 sides its economy in repairs, the timber where it is used may 

 be so light as to save its whole expense; it requires no other 

 coping, and maybe applied by any person of ommon inge- 

 nuity ; being flexible and portable also, it is free from breakage, 

 the expense of carriage is inconsiderable in comp^ri-^n wi Ji 

 slates, tiles, &c, and it is not liable to contraction like zinc. 



Sold in sheets 38 inches by 20, at 5rf. each (beinir less than 

 95. 6d. per square of 100 feet), with printed directions for apply. 

 ing them, same as adopted at the Government Dock-yards and 

 various other public buildings. 



Orders will meet with prompt attention if addressed to H. C 

 Bowijkv, 18, East India Chambers, LeadenbaH street, London, 

 or to the following agents:— Liverpool, Messrs. Grueber & Co.,

 *** The "Improved Rooking Fflt M will be found much 

 more durable than the Comm n Felt made in length*, and not 

 subject, like it or continuous sheets of other material, to be 

 stripped by storm; it can also be more easily repaired, and 

 from thesimple mode of amplication recommended, the wet can- 

 not percolate through nail-holes, being only fastened down at 

 the overlaps.
