There wouldn't be 100 lbs OF any other

Jpur whole business.
Devoe is like that among paints; it is
tHIce as sweet as some; it is sweeter than
any, rot one exception; one gallon is two
- One-and-a-half or one-and- -three-quart-

Better than that; paint has to be paint

gssions more put-on at 50 to "a gallon
Scant all that. The paint that wears
double costs. less by 8 gallons Of paint

Pollution of Streams.

Our Dnrham, y. c., correspondent adj
vises us that Judge c. s. Furgerson has
rendered decision in the case of the
city OF Durham against the Emo Cot
ton Mills of Hillsboro, restraining the
Mills from dumping garbage into Emo
River. Durham gets its water supply
from this river, and the garbage dumped
from the mills has polluted the stream.
A'.ls is question which has been re-
gently discussed in The Times Dispatch
and which should claim the attention OF
our Lawmakers. Legitimate enterprise is
to be encouraged but not at the expense
of the public health. The streams OF
Virginia are natures own gifts, and they
belong to the people, They may be used
by private enterprise SO long as there
IL no trespass, but when they are SO
employed as to deprive the public of its
rights, the restraining power of the law
