A GOOD TIME TO PAINT
Mixed Paints and White Lead Much,
Cheaper Than A Year Ago.

Mixed Paints and White Lead Much
Cheaper Than A Year Ago.
Nothing improves the appear
ance and value of buildings more
than a new coat of paint and
there is a fine prospect for a lot of
painting this spring. The News
has interviewed painters and paint
dealers the past week and they
all agree to the statement made
above.
Mixed paints, white lead and
oil have fallen very materially in
price the past few months until
mixed paints have been reduced
one-fourth, white lead from $3.50
to $14.5O per 100 pounds, and oil
has been reduced one-half.
Most people think first of the
better appearance of house or
barn newly painted, but paint is
of far greater value than that, in
the fact that it protects building
materials from the deteniorating
effects of the elements, lengthens
the life Of the building and saves
much in repairs.
To paint a good house is like
putting in that one stitch that
saves nine.
