WAR PAINT

SOUNDS WORTH TRYING

ANOTHER USE FOR SKIM MEEK

A subscriber submits the. following clipping which he noticed in a weekly journal:

Painting farm buildings at the present time is a very costly business and no doubt many farmers, through lack of finance, arc obliged to allow their buildings to deteriorate.. There is not the slightest necessity for this and we are: sure that farmers who take a pride in the upkeep of their buildings will be interested in the following recipe, which was guaranteed by a Canadian journal some years ago and which has been used with success. Stir into one gallon of skim milk about 31b of cement. Stir frequently, using same in about 24 hours. Aii3 r desired colouring may be used, or left, over paint ma3 r be used with equal success. This will be found a very cheap paint.. Thirty-four galions can be made, for about £1. which is less than the cost of o'ne gallon of ordinary paint. It is lasting, hardens rapidly, preserves the painted surface and is so cheap thai the buildings, can be kept right up to date.
