Many Advantages Seen In Use of Insulation A survey conducted a few years ago by a major publishing house showed that 87.3 per cent of pros- haild, intended to been proven through tests that 'mineral wool insulation cuts redec- orating costs by restricting the of dust laden air through ive home S nsulate their houses. The number that actually followed through with their original plan is not available, but we can be fairly certain that a high percentage did so. Because mineral wool insulation is comparatively new in relation to other building materials and a profitable "plus" item for any home owner, it is important to know the advantages mineral wool has to offer. These include the principles by which insulation ac- complished its results as well as the forms in which it is manu- factured. While somplete informa- tion is readily available from your local insulating contractor or building materials dealer, here are a few points worth consider- Mineral wool insulation is most commonly known for its features of saving fuel and promoting com- fort in home during winter as well as giving a cooler house in the hot weather. In addition, it has wall and -ceiling surfaces. Equally important, however, is the .fact that mineral wool is ab- solutely fireproof, and has been known to prevent conflagrations which might otherwise have been caused by electrical short circuits in the walls. Because of this, a house insulated with mineral wool is considered a better insurance risk, and definitely adds to the re- sale value. In the near future we may very well find that an unin- sulated house will be difficult to sell.

About 20 electronic projects for the defence department and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization are under way at the plant and represent the work of about 1,000 engineers and research experts. Mr. Claxton implied that Ger- man scientists engaged in guided missile work in Germany during the last war are among those work- ing at the plant.

First signs of the invasion were reported on the highway where numerous snakes, apparently sunning them- selves on the gravel, were killed by cars. Three years ago an attempt was made to wipe out the reptiles with chemicals but it had no noticeable effect. "We just had to learn to live with them," said A. B. Martin, municipal clerk at Inwood, a nearby village. Chatfield postmaster Ed Hobor- ough is something of a local auth- ority on snakes. He. said it is a r year for snakes due to the ack of sunshine. Rock clefts and blasting holes in the area tend literally to become snake pits. Mr. Hoborough visited one of these, about three miles north of Chatfield. He reported it was a mass of writhing reptiles. CCF Would Rid Provinces Road Program By Canadian Press Staff Writer WISETON, Sask. (CP)--M..J.
