(fig uring 660 square yards) than any other competitive felt base floor covering. The Quality of the Felt is wool, cotton, and burlap, 37 per cent of ingredients being burlap which gives us a long fibre felt and acts the same as hair In plaster. It's ad hesive and a binder. Refined, Compound Asphaltum Compounded in Califor nia at the oil refineries own ed by the makers of Pabcolin rugs. It has a higher melt ing point than any other in the world and is purer. Durability and Wear The raw felts and saturated felts are run under a collan der system of pressure of enormous weight that reduces it into a thin, tenacious sheet and adds to its durability and wear. You Should Know the Composition and Materials in Your Floor Coverings As Much as You Know the Buying Power of Your Dollars AMI No CREEPING or CRAWL ING. Reducing the felt un der the pressure mentioned above and encasing it in the seal as we do, we reduce the possibilities of creeping and crawling, a defect so common in other felt base floor coverings.
