Dear Sir: Fl. M. Hooker & Co., Coop.
erstwon, N. Y, have sold Devoe paint
for % years. d. T. McGown, of that
firm, built house in 'S5 and painted
Devoe, of course. The paint lasted
ten years.
A year or two later, neighbor built
house, and painted it lead and oil.
The neighbours house was repainted
twice in the same time.
This looks as if the neighbours house
was painted three times in eight or
nine years, and McGown's once in ten
years. We are not quite sure-we tell
the tale as it comes to us.
1t is enough to say that Devoe lead
and zinc lasts twice as long as lead and
oil.
Yours truly,
