Cork Brick Flooring 



A good floor for cow stalls, calf and 

 bull pens, horse stalls, sheep pens, and 

 piggeries is something that the dairymen 

 and stock raisers of the country have been 

 trying to find for years. 



Wood planking is fairly warm and easy on the feet, but it is not sanitary. It soon 

 gets foul and rots out. 



Smooth concrete is easy to keep clean, but it certainly is injurious to animals that have 

 to stand or lie on its cold, hard, slippery surface. 



Chemically treated wood blocks are liable to get slippery, and frequently expand 

 when exposed to moisture. 



To get something that will combine the good and eliminate the bad qualities of these 

 materials, has been in past years a problem. 



Cork brick, however, have solved the stall floor problem. They were placed on the 

 market six years ago after numerous tests in actual service had demonstrated merit. That 

 they have satisfactorily fulfilled the claims made for them, is proved by the fact that there 

 are now over 7,000,000 brick installed in approximately 5,000 dairy barns in all parts 

 of the country. 



The cork brick make a floor that is thoroughly sanitary, warm to the touch, easy under 

 foot, non-slippery — wet or dry, durable in service, easy to install, and moderate in cost. 



Cork brick consist of finely granulated cork and refined asphalt, heated and thoroughly 

 mixed, then moulded under pressure into brick form. 



The brick measure 9x4x2 inches for cow stalls, and 9 x 4 x Wj, inches for horse 

 stalls. They are laid flat, and four will cover exactly one square foot of surface. 



Cork brick meet every requirement for an ideal stall floor; if you are interested, drop
