This is a natural product which
comes from the far west, and has
the advantage of requiring two

easily mixed and makes an excellent
wall plaster for less money than the
average patent wall plasters cost
The advantages in the use of these
plasters Is that they ean be put on

the old mortar of lime and sand,
after mixing, require from four to
six weeks In the mortar bed “to
