WATERPROOF WASH FOR SILO
M xture of Liquid Paraffin and Cement
Is Excellent for Inside of

One of our readers has reported
that he has discovered an excellent wa-

It is simply a mixture of three quarts
of liquid paraffin to each 100 pounds
of cement. The parafin may be
bought through any of the regular ofl
