A Good Time TO Paint.

There is no bettertime to paint build
ings than during the pleasant days In
winter. Paint spread in cold weather
makes a better covering for ihe wood

and excessively dry, so that the oil is
Immediately absorbed, leaving the lead
or other material used as chalky sub
stance on the surface. ready in few
months TO rub off or be washed by
rains. 1t will require a little more
paint at single coat in cold than
in warm weather, as the oil will be
thickened little by the cold, but then
it will stay where it is put, and q sec
ond coat will be less needed.
One advantage in painting now IL
the absence of flies and other small in
sects which, in warm weather, often
make freshly-laid paint look anything
but attractive. II there is snow on the
ground 10 cover the earth, and prevent
dust and leaves from being blown into
the paint, all the better. In the very
coolest weather it may be well to Keep
the materials in a warm room, as the
paint will spread more easily than il
cold enough TO freeze water. 1t is a
good plan, too, as far as may be. to
keep on the sunny side of buildings.
painting the east sides in the morning,
and the west in the afternoon. Tho
north sides may be painted in the mid
die of pleasant days, and the south side
when it would be too cold 10 work any
where else. 80
All the plain, outside painting Of q
farmer buildings may just as wei be
done by himself and his ordinarySfarm
help, as by a professional painter,
though it might be well to employ one
such to do the more difficult portions,
and to give advice and oversee the
work. Excellent paints now come
mixed all ready to spread, so that but
little practice will be required for q
green hand" of ordinary ability to BE-
come equal to any ordinary farm paint
ing If owners of buildings would
paint them little oftener, one coat
would always be enough to put on ut
time. II Is the long neglected work
that takes up oil at fearful rate, the
wood being full of little checks which
absorb like sponge. A thin coat on
the surface of solid wood Is equal to
heavier coat half absorbed by air checks.
A building painted with one good coat
every third year will always look well.
while the wood will be thoroughly pro.
tected. A painted house is warmer than
an unpainted one, the paint filling many
| joints that would lie. cold winds
through.-New England Farmer.
