Material Required for Barn 
How much boxing is required for a 
barn -4x24 ft.? I can get my farm 
nanus to do the work, but there is no 
carpenter near here to advise I can *er 
the boxing from farmers near me, a”ud 
want to be sure to have enough, and not 
too much. The barn will be 22 ft. hi<*-h 
at the gable end and 16 ft. on the sides. 
»\ ill you also tell me how much corru¬ 
gated roofing must I order for the barn* 5 
Seventy Six. Mo, h. M . w . 
I am somewhat at a loss to know just 
^ H;ii is meant by the term boxing, but 
assume that the outside covering or 
sheathing of the building is referred to. 
Hie building in question has about “ 560 
square feet of outside surface, includin'* 
the roof. The amount to add to this to 
provide for accessary waste will varv 
i\ith the type of lumber, its width, 
whether it is matched or not, etc., and 
cannot be accurately determined without 
knowing the conditions. A 20 per cent 
addition for waste in matching is a good 
average allowance, however, and figuring 
on this basis about 3.000 ft. (board 
measure) of lumber will be required to 
cover the exterior of the building. If 
the sides aud ends are to be double 
boarded add about 2,000 ft. more, mak¬ 
ing 5,000 ft, (board measure) in all. pro¬ 
vided the walls are to be double boarded. 
If unmatched lumber is to be used, this 
amount can be lessoned somewhat. Suf¬ 
ficient roofing should be ordered to cover 
8->i square feet, 814 to 9 squares.
