Miss. Planter Develop*
Roofing From Cotton
Concrete Mixture

any physical effect or color
may be obtained.
Jackson, Miss.—A house is
going up here in the heart of
the cotton belt that may sound
the charge for a million-bale
advance into new uses for cot-
ton.
It is the first house in Amer-
ica making commercial use of
a newly developed cotton con-
crete as a roofing material.
Growing out of experiments
conducted by a Columbus,
Mias., cotton planter and seed
breeder, J. Harris Hardy, the
new construction material
“puts cotton in the building
industry” as a reinforcing
fabric for thin slabs and
shingles of concrete molded
on the job.
The roof on the Jackson
dwelling doem’t look like cot-
ton or like concrete either. It
is a shingle design, stained to
give a weathered appearance.

come via refrigerator cars
from many areas and during
longer seasons.
