LETTER TO RODNEY N HALL,
COnTH PARIS

Dear Sir: You understand grinding
wheat, buckwheat, rye, oats and corn.
We understand grinding white lead and
white zinc. The two sorts of grinding
are not much alike. Very likely oats and
wheat behave very differently in the
mill. and you manage them differently
we know very little abont 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 b'
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 as your oats
Tub mixers imagine they mix it. The.
don't; they can't. Takes grinding u
mix lead and zinc.
They are both white. Tub-mixer
don't know it; but tub-mixed lead ant
zinc is a streak of one alongside of
streak of the other.
| We grind as you grind; and our pain
is lead and zinc ground together, mikes
intimately; it is neither lead nor zinc
Init lead and zinc: the lead is lost, an
the zinc is lost: each lost in the Other
both lost in the mixture. Lead chalk
and zinc peels: lead and zinc groun
together hang on and protect each othel
We take care of your mill outside; 20
take care of it inside.
Yours truly,
| +. w. DEvoE * Co.
