Wooden lath should be considered out of the question for exterior work. In the long run, the surfacing will invariably fall off of it. Expanded metal lath, and there is an infinite variety of it, has been used very extensively, but it is not to be recommended. It is advertised as the very best backing for our work—it is advertised specially covered with anti- rust solutions, to easily embed itself in the plaster, to key quickly and have no sharp edges to shear the plaster, as well as by its corrugation tO' provide against contraction and ex- pansion and avert cracking. Far better than expanded metal lath is a good galvanized wire lath. Naturally it comes in many different grades as well as varying mesh, but relatively valued, it ought to cost about twenty-three cents per yard, as against twenty cents for expanded metal lath of about the same grade. Be certain that the wire is galvanized; No. 20 gauge is good. No. 18 best of all. It must further be rigidly tacked to the furring strips. Builders generally prefer, for convenience and economy of time, to tack the wire mesh on vertically; it should, however, be tacked on horizontally, lapped at the joint at least three inches. If
