_Cost_
The cost of yellow-pine ceiling is $45 per thousand feet B. M. Since
there is no white lead to be used and the joints are not struck, $11
will pay for laying it. The nails will cost 67 cents, which will bring
the cost per thousand feet B. M., up to $56.67. Therefore, 654 feet B.
M., yellow-pine ceiling, at $56.67 per thousand, will cost $37.06.

miscellaneous roof items:
SLATING
_Quantities_
SQUARES
Main and dormer roofs 22.0
Porch roof 6.4
Tower roof 3.7
----
32.1
_Cost_
The price of slating per square is given in Table XII, _Estimating and
Calculating Quantities_, Part 1. Bangor slating costs $8 per square.
On account of the curved tower and the number of hips and valleys, and
because the measurement just given is actual measurement, the price
will be put at $10 per square. Thus, the cost of 32.1 squares at $10
will be $321.
