THE
Paint for Buildings.
The matter of painting out buildings on
a farm was recently discussed at the uieet j
ing of tLe New York Farmers' Club. The
question was not whether they should be i
painted in order to preserve thetu—that
was fuken for granted—but what they
should he painted with Solon Robison
said he would give a receipt, which he had !
given many times before, in hopes that j
some might be induced to use this cheap, j
durable paint, which is a better preserver ;
(if wood than oil paint, and has this advau- (
tage : it can be best u<ed upon unplatted j
boards This is the formula: Take one
bushel of good whitewash lime, and slake j
it, and m x it into a fine, smooth white
wash. It will take at least forty gallons
of water Then add the following ingn- j
dients : 20 lbs of Spanish whitening; 17
lbs. of rock salt; 12 lbs of Sugar This
mixture should he well stirred, and if mix
ed a day or two before using it is better.
Indeed, it may be kept as long as desirable,
and when needed for use. after thoroughly
stirring, it is teady. It should be put ou
like any other whitewash, in a thin condi
tion, and rough boards will require three
coats to make a durable white color, which
will stand the weather three or four years
It is one of the very best applications for
shingles. Its color can be modified to a
drab, by Rosendale cement, or to a yellow
ish shade by yellow ochre, and reddish by
"V enetian red, or any other tint, by some
cheap color. Mr. Robison had use dashes,
and also blue clay, to get a brownish tint.

An Infallible Remedy for all Chronic and

Sore Throat, Quinsy. Sprains,
Neuralgia. Pain in the Back
and Limbs, Cramps. &c.
MR Swyers. by repeated experiments,
has succeeded in compounding a Lini
ment which possesses all the magic powers
of a perfect Pain Exterminator. Its virtues
have been unmistakably tested, and every
application has given almost minediate re
lief; and the object in giving notice of the
above discovery is, not to enlarge the list of
worthless compounds already quite too large,
but simply to inform any who may be afflict
ed with any of the above named diseases
where they can be supplied with an infallible,
remedy. A long list of names of individuals
who have had access to the ablest physicians,
and Lave tested most of the patent remedies,
all to no advantage, hut who were almost im
mediately relieved by this powerful Liniment,
could be obtained. We, however, give but a
few, knowing that the Liniment will speak
for itself as soon as applied :
