The colors are permanent and unfadeable, being the natural shades of the slate just as it is taken out of the quarries. It will also prove a very economical roof, because Brantford Asphait Slates do not split, get loose, absorb water or rot. They are strongly fire-resistant and are classified as non-combustible by the fire insuranee companies, and allowed to be used in cities where the most rigid fire-prevention By-laws are in force. Brantford Asphalt Slates are very moderate in cost. The regu- lar size of the slates and their pliability make them easily and quickly laid, thus saving time and cost of labor. Being made of high grade felt saturated and coated with asphalt, and with a surface of crushed slate, they make a roof that defies the elements and is a permanent part of the building, just like the walls and the foundation. 'Brantford Asphalt Slates are being used more extensively every year for city, country and summer homes, churches, golf clubs, stores, garages, and wherever an artistic effect is desired on a pitch roof.
