HOW AND WHEN TO PAINT.

next springs use.
Painting Wagons.
Wagons should be painted once
each year. for by so doing their lives
will be doubled; and board fences
should not be allowed to stand eX-
posed to all kinds of weather without
a good coat of paint. With the high
price of machinery, no American far
mer can afford to leave his tools ex-
posed in fields and fence corners. Ten
minutes work and few cents worth
Of paint devoted to the woodwork of
the pillow or farm implement at least
once year will go a long way to-
ward preserving machinery.
Possibly the inside of the house
needs coat of paint. 1t will bright
EN- up the home and make it look so
much better that it is worth while.
The kitchen may look gummy be-
ccause the smoke of griddle cakes
and ham has changed the color OF the
paint and paper. There are so many
places about the farm that can use
paint that it behooves the farmer
to realize the value of paint and use
it frequently.
The Ronan pioneer. [volume] (Ronan, Mont.) 1910-1970, 1917-07-06

This is the season of the year when
the farmer should be concerned re-
garding the using Of paint. There
is right time TO use paint to get
the most good. When painting houses
outside. it is best 10 do ii in the
spring or late in the fall
There is q right way 10 apply
paint Have the wood or iron clean
and dry. Use paint that contains
good Oil. Remember. it is the oil
that adheres. Apply with plenty of
"elbow grease" Rub the paint in.
10 apply paint properly it will take
about twice as long and may cost a
little more. but it will last that much
longer and will pay in the end
There must be close union of the old
and new paint on the wood or iron or
it will peel. Rub it in
Good paint, known as prepared
paint, can be purchased that is reli-
able, and we believe it is the method
that should be followed. Years ago,
when a man wished to paint his
house or barn, the only thing for him
to do was to buy a supply of white
lead, turpentine and linseed oil and
stir up mixture with stick. This
was all right in those days, for there
was nothing better.
The Old System.
A few years ago, and in fact, even
now, is to be found about the barn
some old paint pail with caked white
lead sticking to it and nearby bottle
of linseed Oil and some turpentine,
SO that one who wished to paint a lit
tie could mix up some kind of a dope.
Imagine the consequences of trying
to mix in a small pail, and with a
stick, a paint equal to that which
it takes machinery weighing thous-
ands of pounds to properly mix.
A recent in vestigation of the
homemade and machinery mixed
paints shows that in a few weeks aft
er a building has been painted with
homemade material, there were
places that the lead was beginning
to peel off, while the machinery
mixed paint, with the proper proper
tions of materials, lasted for months
and showed no signs of peeling.

pie.

trance, perhaps unknown to the own
err, for his building may look nice,
but the damage to the lumber spreads
rapidly. This is so often observed
within few weeks after building
has been painted with homemade
material. Perhaps the farmer does
not paint again for couple of years,
and when he does paint, these spots
do not take the paint as evenly as
other parts of the building that have
in good condition. Checks
and cracks spread out and in the
course of half a dozen years the
building has greatly deteriorated in
value.
Paint should be one of the greatest
friends of the farmer. Not only
should it be used for the conservation
Of his buildings but for other things

farm tool that is much exposed to

 BELGIAN ADVANCE
Many Fly Low and Make Attacks
 on Germans

British Headquarters in France and Belgium, Aug. 3.-The work done by the British air service in Tuesdays offensive has not been surpassed in efficiency and spectacular features since the war began. More unfavor- able weather for aerial operations could hardly have been selected. At dawn, when the infantry advance began, the country was blanketed by thick, low lying clouds, and by after noon rain had begun to fall.
 Despite these tremendous disadVan- tages huge squadrOns of British air planes led the advance into the enemy territory, and not only maintained constant contact With their infantry but flying at such low altitude that they were often only few feet from the ground, they carried on a destruc- tive warfare of their own with their machine guns. Many fights occurred between the rival pilots. but the Teu- tons were completely outclassed
 The majority of these air battles were at height of 200 feet or less. and in at least one instance the two opposing pilots battled within 50 feet of the ground, at which height the German side-slipped and crashed to the earth.
 The British airplanes were under constant and heavy fire, owing to the low altitude at which they were flying but through all this hurricane of lead and steel all but three came safely These are reported missing.

WAS UNDER CUSTER
 IN THE CIVIL WAR
Edward Fitzpatrick Carried Bul-
 let in Shoulder Since 1862

Edward Fitzpatrick, an old and re- under Colonel Custer in the Civil war and carried a bullet in his shoulder, received in the second battle of Bull
 Run, to his grave. died at his home.
 3O2 High street, at o'clock this morning.
 He was 79 years old. born in
 Queens County, Ireland, but came to
 this country at the age of 19. He set
 tied in Pennington, which was then
 larger than New Britain. but came
 here to work in Philip Corbin's first
 factory, the product of which was
 bull rings. He enlisted in Co. c. Har-
 ris Light Cavalry, afterwards the
 Second New York Cavalry, for threc
 years in Hartford on Monday, August 12, 1861. After he received his dis
 charge in 1862, because of his wound,
 he returned to New Britain and went to work at the Corbin factory again. taking up his residence on Washing ton street. He retired 15 years ago and moved to 3O2 High street last year. His death came this morning
 after an illness of II weeks, due to the ailments of old age.
 MT. Fitzpatrick had an X-ray photograph taken at the Hartford hospital some years ago which showed the bullet lodged under his collar bone, which he received in the second battle of Bull Run, near Groveton, va.. on August 26. 1862. The photograph is, framed at his home. He was sworn into the United States service on August 13, 1861, and went into training at Scarsdale, Vest chester County, N. Y. He was later sent to Washington and Camp Sus- sex Maryland. His command then crossed the Potomac to Arlington Heights and from there went to Fair fax, Centerville and Bull Run. On April IT, 1862, the whole army ad vanced and met the enemy for the first time on the road between Cat lett's Station and Falmouth, Va. He was in the battle of Cedar Mountain and the cavalry fight at Brandy Sta ton, where his regiment suffered | heavily.
 He was wounded nine days later i'll l the second battle of Bull Run. In l the point of unusual service, he had l the distinction of being the only ] soldier to take a prisoner in the battle l at Falmouth court house.

sector is said to have been good and they made a stiff fight for the posi- tions, which they finally had to re- 1inquish. In the ruined village of Hollbeke the British were faced with large number of concrete dugouts which had no surfac entrances but which were approached by tunnels. The attacking troops forced their way into these strongholds, which contained large numbers of men.
 One notable incident of the fighting occurred on the Warneton- Garard farm road at a windmill bn a slight elevation. This place previously had been bitterly contested because it overlooks the surrounding country, which is very flat. The Australians took the place in the early morning but the Germans regained it the same night At midnight the Australians charged the position with boyonets and elected the Germans after san- guinary fighting. LaBasseville also was the scene of severe fighting and here, as at Hollbeke, were found con- crete dugouts which are now filled with their dead defenders, who were bombed.

1862. General George A. Custer. the famous Indian fighter, was the colonel of the First Iron Brigade.''
 MT. Fitzpatrick was married to Katherine Dooley by Rev. Luke Daly in the old Catholic church on Myrtle street, September 13, 1863. His wife survives him with one daughter, Mrs. Annie Kelly of 302 High street. He also leaves five grandsons; John. James, first sergeant in Go.
