Dickey home. Rock Island had sew

Dear Sir: You own several
houses. Your reason for paint
ing Deyoe Ready Paint should
be several times as strong as
the man who owns but one.
Lead and oil was good enough
paint until the merits Of zinc
were found out. 1t was
profitable to paint lead and oil
it was then-but not now.
The addition Of lead to zinc
makes Devoe Ready Paint last
twice as long and costs no more;
costs less-a tri1e less. not
much. Lead and oil is mixed
by hand; Devoe Ready Paint by
machinery. Might as we'll make
oue's shirts by hand as mix
paints. Say it costs 500 d
house to paint lead and oil: say
it lasts three years.
Say it costs the same for
Devoe; which lasts six years
it will last ten years, under
favora BILE conditions, unless you
want to repalnt to change the
color.
The costs: lead and oil about
$50 year; Devoe $15-prob
ably less.
Yours truly,
