Hero's one for vour boys: If painting costs iwo or three times as much as the paint, and one paint goes twice as far as an other, how much are those two p lints worthy If Devoe is worth fcl 50 or 1.7B a gallon, how mucli is the other one worth. How much is a gallou of paint worth anyhow? The auswer is : Depeuds on the paint. The reason is: paint isn't al wav s pit int. There are true and false paint and short meisure. How much is a short measure gallon worth? How much is falsi paint worth? How much is Devoe worth? There are millions a year in the auswer to this last one. .J. A. Boyd, Mercersburg. WEST DL'BI.I.
