Open-air poultry houses for all climates; a practical book on modern common sense poultry housing for beginners and veterans in poultry keepingWhat to build and how to do itHouses that will promote health, vigor and vitality in laying and breeding stock . e, a shinglinghatchet, two saws, a screwdriver, crow bar and a round pointedshovel; and I got along very well. Boards. In selecting the materials for house building a consider-able saving can be made on the covering boards if the outside of thehouse is to be covered with some good roofing felt (heavy roofingwith a graveled outer surface preferred). In such case common wormy box boards to be had at from $7 to $0 per thousandwill answer very well. They are not quite good enough or heavyenough to shingle over. Common country bull or pitch pineboards can be had for from $8 to $12 per thousand, that willhold shingles as long as the nails last, but small nails must beused that will not go through the boards. All of these boards areusually cut in box board mills and run %-inch in thickness. Common % or 1-inch hemlock or other covering boards are bestfor holding shingles and cost more; usually cannot be bad forless than $24 per thousand. North Carolina hard pine matched %-inch roofers cost me.
