K&M Featherweight 85% Magnesia Coverings--The efficiency of an insulating covering depends primarily on the number of dead-aircells. Through the use of carded asbestos fiber of selected grade, we are * enabled to get the necessary structural strength in our Magnesia Coverings with a minimum amount of asbestos fiber and a maximum amount of carbonate of mag nesia. Chemical tests show the magnesia content of K & M Featherweight Mag nesia Coverings to be always well in excess of 85 per cent and running as high as 90 to 91 per cent. Some magnesia coverings offered run as low as 70 to 75 per cent in carbonate of magnesia. Tests show that the purchaser is warranted in paying ten per cent more for the .lighter and more efficient covering. Don't pay for inert weight in your coverings. "The lighter they weigh, the better they pay."
