Stetler, MlDDLKBUKOH, Pa. Dear Sir : When you build a house you want a good paint next the wood- it goes a long way in taking care of the wood. The paint that has the lest chance to be useful is this first coat: first two coats: first three coats. The first takes care of the 2st; the third takes care of the two. All three lie coine one; and that one is to last for ever. "Forever" means ns long as the house lasts. The way to make the first painting last, as long as the house, Is to follow it up with repainting often enough. How often? D.-p-nds on tlie paint. Repaint while tin- i aim is still water proof. All the .eur is outside; there is no wear on the under paint. This Is how the first painting last forever : by keeping it covered : keeping it sound. And this is the cheapest way to take care of a house. Hut how often to' paint depends on your paint, ff you paint lead and oil, paint again in three years or less; if Devoe lead and Zinc, paint again iu three years or more. That "less" and "more" are about as one to two. Devoo lead and zinc takes ea. e l' .1 Iiousl' at half cost, le cause it lift 1 1 ice us long it lead and oil. Yours truly, V. V. Dkvoi-: & Co.
