Farm Buildings Should Be Kept Well
Protected to Prevent Loss.

Among all the routine expenses of
the property owner there is none that
yields more satisfactory returns than
good paint In this respect It is like
fire insurance. but with difference.
Fire is accidental and when an in
sured building burns, the insurance
company pays a good proportion of
the cost of rebuilding. But when a
building suffers for the lack of paint
las It must suffer if painting is neg
lected-the owner bears the entire
loss. 1t is the height of improvidence,
therefore, to allow property to de-
teriorate for the lack of coat of good
paint in season; for paint is not only
a form of Insurance that pays its own
premiums, but in the selling value it
adds to a building, it is an actual cash
asset. &c geft ,2HVt4sFyc & 4el
The best time to paint is in the
spring or the fall, when the weather
Is. settled, and paint applied at the
proper time will wear better and pro
tect better than If applied at an un'
favorable season.
For ordinary use there is nothing
superior to the better grades of ready.
