To G. E. Desmold, President ~. J. Zinc Co., " Y.
SIR: A series ofexperiments conducted by me,
with the utmost care, during the past three years,
upon all the various paints and artificial prepara-
lions for the. preservation of timber, have led me
TO the important discovery that the White Zinc
Paint, manufacturedby the New Jersey Zinc Com
pany, serves as perfect protection against the
ravages ofth marine worm, and the formation Of
barnacles, whilst no other paint preparation OF
any kind combines the same protective effect.
| am now preparing full report on this mpor-
tant subject 10 the Bureaus Of Yards and Docks at
Washington, and shall send with it a complete Sc
res Of specimens of wood anL metal plates, which
were covered with the different paints and pre-
parations, and then exposed alike for an entire
season. in salt water, opposite this navy yard all
Of which illustrates. in the most striking manner,
the Invaluable qualities and decided superiority OF
your White Zinc Paint over all other kinds
paints especially for marine purposes.
You are at liberty to give full publicity to the
above stated facts, which are of too much impor-
tance to be kept from the naval and commercial
world. / am respectfully your obedient servant,
