PRODUCED in congress by delegate W. II.
Andrews appropriating $500 for put
ting down n test well at the town of
New Kirk in Guadalupe county. Many
persons believe that New Mexico has
oil, gas or artesian water, and Mr..
Gallcgos has made a proposition to the
Government to furnish the money for
making the test, agreeing 10 give the
Government a certain amount of the
land on which the test IL made should

ties. The idea is a good one, and the
Government is not only interested in
the development Of the country, but
has the means with which TO make the
test, Very few Of our people ARE able
financially TO make the test without
any guarantee of success.

well as falsity, Time proves the
truth and exposes the faults.
And you can ride Down any country road in
this country, or any village, town, or city street
and see for yourself what Time has done to
bring out the facts about paint. Over there
you see a muddy, bleary-looking house dull
eyed, as it were-low vitality, paint that is
dying-dead, may be.
And there in a stones -throw away, one that fairly
CLEANS with the reflection of living light, bright, clear,
with that brilliant sheen and radiance of gloss that
tells you the story of what's in it Just as truly as If you
were looking into a mirror to see your own self.
Time has proven absolutely that Horse Shoe Brand
House Paint, manufactured by the Mound City Paint
manufactured in this country or any other country.
It's the one paint that does what good paint ought to
do, and so much more than you expect that any paint
will do. This is because it is made of nothing but the
highest quality white lead, zinc, and best aged linseed
oil. One gallon goes twice over a surface as high as
a six-footer and so feet long - and stays there at least
three years and sometimes ten.
1t pays to know what's good in paint. Il pays TO know where to
get il. All we have TO say is that we know absolutely that Horse
Shoe Brand Paint is the straightest. highest quality, honest priced
paint for honest work that we can get hold OF. Made by the same
house for twentysix years. Sold on its merits; on It's character.
Remember, too, the Mound City Paint & Color Company manu-.
features a complete line of the highest quality paint specaltes -
Horse Shoe Brand paint for every use: Floor Paint, Barn and Root
Paint, To-Wauk.On Stain, Screen Paint, Wagon and Implement
Paint. etc, Grecisn Enamel for the Bathroom. Iron Beds and the like.
And so we claim il pays to know that there's one paint store in this
town where you can get good paint advice: and there's some color
cards YOU ought to have, too, IL you're going to paint - they're
free - u YOU here az the store - come and get them.

"And, waiter, bring it with butter"

you going TO bring it 2"

did, and the young man climbed down.
