The holes should l)e thorougldy rainnie<l : the anchors are purely for safety, and may never be called upon to take any strain, but Ingh winds may do some damage when the silo is empty. The roof, which is of the simplest kind, is carried on a roof-plate, shown by dotted lines in tlie plan, Fig 3, v\ Inch is bolted or nailed to the tc|) platC'^. The framework is now complete, and the sheeting nuiy l)e put on. The •?sheets are very tender when first taken from the crates, luit soon liarden ; whde green they are slightly flexilde, and may be nailed, sawn, or planed. Use 1-inch clout-nails, about 1 inches apart, to attach sheets, but discretion must be used to get the sheets to lie flat against studs and battens. Start at the top (.f tlie silo. The sheets should be slid up the studs on edge and mulcil. If the sheets do not make a per- \—— '? fect joint at the corners, the V ' - -' - /i' edges are to be planed to a fit. F'g- 9- following proportions:—1 part cement, IV2 part lime, 3 parts sand. As soon as the sheets are all fixed, the joints may be grouted with a mortar, made of sand and cement, or sand, lime, and cement, of the Fig. 8. A scaffold is not recpured ; use planks across the battens of the sides. The whole of the Titanic sheeting should now l)e painted with P"'errol paint, whieli is provided with the silo. czn S".
