Dear Sir: No man is more interest
ed in the look and wear of the paint
ON the houses you build than you !;
not even the owner; not even the
painter.
And painters sometimes are suspect
ed of being more concerned for the
look than the wear. What is YOUR
opinion? Which paws best, for paint
er to have his paint last three years,
or as long as he can? He can have it
last six, if he wants to-
Lead and oil lasts three; Devoe
Lead and zinc lasts six. OF course,
conditions affect the time of both.
Most painters know that zinc
toughens the lead some use it.
Deyoe lead and zinc is thoroughly
ground i'll oil; the proportions are
right, and the mixture is thorough.
No painter need mix; he can't
afford to. Hand work can't compete
with machinework, He runs no risk
with Devoe lead and zinc.
All interests lie in using it; yours,
the owners, the painter sunless he
wants his paint to wear half as long.
Yours truly,
+. w. Devoe e Go.

NEW FRUIT.

A Cross Between Raspberry and straw
berry Raised by "a Berkeley CountIan.
Mr.. Walper Snyder, of near Snyder s
Mill, has succeeded in producing a
new hybrid in berryculture. He had
some of the newberries in townIThurs-
day and excited qulte a great deal
OF curiosity of showing them ON the
streets.
The fruit is a cross between rasu-
berry and strawberry, produced by
grating of shoots and looks more like
giant raspberry than anything else.
The berries grow on bush about
two feet high and are perennial,
beginning to grow about this season
of the year and continuing until frost.
The bush decays during winter and
starts anew from the root the next
spring. y
The berries are about the size Of
the eggs of a guinea hen.
