LETTER TO SOUTH PARIS GRAIN CO.
SOUTH PARIS, MAINE.

SOUTH PARIS, MAINE.
Dear Sirs: You understand grinding
wheat, buckwheat, rye, oats and corn.
We understand grinding whitehead and
white-zinc. The two sorts of grinding
are not much alike. Very likely oats
and wheat behave very differently 10 the
mill, and you manage them differently
We know very little about your work
don't need to; we'd rather depend on
you.
But we paint your house and mill, and
out-buildings; perhaps you'd be glad TO
know about grinding paint; for some
people mix their paint With stick in =
tub.
We use lead and zinc--nothing else.
And our zinc Is as tough - your oats.
Tub-mixers imsgine they mix Il. They
don't; they can't. Takes grinding to
mix lead and zinc.
They are both white. Tub-mixers
don't know t.; but tub-mixed lead and
zinc 10 streak Of one alongside OF .
streak Of the other.
We grind % you grind; and our paint
ID lead and zinc ground together, mixed
intimately; It 10 neither lead nor zinc,
but lead and zinc: the lead ID lost, and
the zinc is lost: each lost In the other /:
both lost In the mixture. Lead chalks
and zinc peels: lead and zinc ground
together hang on and protect each other.
We take care OF your mill outside !;
you take care Of 1t inside.
YouS truly,
