The Roofing Tin Experience 

 of a Firm of Kansas Merchants 



Taylor Old Style" tin still giving good service after many 

 years' wear while a cheap imitation "old style" gave out in a 

 few years' time. 



This building of M. E.Yost & Sons, of Hiawatha, Kansas, was 

 built in two parts. One part was roofed with genuine "Taylor 

 Old Style" tin and the other with an imitation "old style." The 



Taylor Old Style" tin has given splendid service for many years 

 without costing a dollar for repairs, while the so-called "old 

 style" has been a constant trouble and expense. 



Messrs. Yost & Sons are now building a cement block build- 

 ing of three stories and basement, and the builder has bought 

 "Taylor Old Style" tin for the roof. 



The experience of Messrs. Yost 5c Sons with tins which are called "old 



style 1 for the purpose of trading on the reputation of the genuine "Taylor 



Old Style 1 ' tin is being duplicated all over the country. Our 



booklet, "A Guide to Good Roofs," has kept many out of 



expensive mistakes of this kind. Would you like to read it?
