Hya layer of half-inch matched boarding, heavily 

 painted. The painting is important. 

 -I Bfetween the outside cover and the inside finish, 

 ,gBd between the studding, there is another layer con- 

 ;sisibirng of lath and plaster. The position of these 

 .various parts will be better understood by reference 

 to Fig. 40. 



. This leaves two dead-air spaces in the walls, one 

 on each side of the layer of lath and plaster. Mr. 

 ■Kinney says that if he were building again he would 

 have the studding wider — say, 2 x 6 — in order to make 

 the walls thicker and the dead- air spaces larger.
