Letter to Milkman
Columbia, La.

Dear SIR There are severa
ways of cheating in milk. Al
old'fashioned way is to water it.
Nobody watersit now. A better
way is to take out the cream
rich milk with the cream taken
out is as good as poor milk with
its cream all in.
But we needn't go into partic.
ulars.
You don't rob your milk and
your customers.
Paint is as easy as milk to
cheat with. Good paint is as
rare as good milk; for human ma
ture is much the same in milk
men and paint men.
You are just and true with
your milk; so are we with our
paint. Devoe lead-and-zinc is
twice as good as mixed paints:
There's twice as much butterin it.
r. j. 7. Ladd, Cheraw, S C,
writes:
when Mr. Evans painted his
house with Devoe, he figured on
how other paints covered and
had enough left to paint three

pleased that he used Devoe on
two other houses.

SENATOR ASHURST
ATTENDS COURT

U. S. Senator H. F. Ashurst
arrived in Holbrook Monday
morning from the Southern part
of the State where he has been
since his return from Washing
ton. The Senator is looking hale
and hearty even though he has
recently gone through a six
months siege of strenuous labor
at the Nations Capitol.
Senator Ashurst expresses him
self as being very much pleased
at once more being in the State
that has honored him by giving
him the highest of the gifts that
the commonwealth of Arizona
can bestow, that of United States
Senator.
Mr.. Ashurst says it looks good
to see familiar faces, and, there
by, friendly faces, and that he
has, so far, striven to the best
of his ability to merit the appro-
baton of his many friends and
constituents, working for the
best interests of the State at
large, and so shall continue to
do as long as he is your Senator.
Senator Ashurst is in Holbrook
attending to some important law
business that he was interested
in before he was elected and will
remain with us several days or
