This is the season for painting, papering, and cleaning every house, room or building you possess. To do this properly and satisfactorily you must secure the best quality of materials—something recognized by the public as being excellent. In painting, the only way to be economical is to buy the very best quality you can secure, as the cheaper grades of paints are not absolutely pure and will not stand the weather conditions as long nor as well. Thousands of dollars are spent every year on worthless grades and by the people who try to be economical. Personal experience has already shown many that the best grade is always the cheapest in the end. If you get a paint which is cheap in price you may know at the start that it is worthless in lasting qualities. The highest grades usually sell for the same price the world over, so the main object is to deal with an honest and responsible firm.

An Indiana farmer went home, the other day, with crocodile tears in his eyes, because the merchants of a little town refused to buy his butter and eggs.

Here’s a few lines from a spring poet who has escaped being shot: “The winter now past and gone, and gentle spring is here, the pent up season’s over now and breathing is much freer. The meadow lark is now being heard in soft and mellow notes, and the farmer man is humping himself with the sowing of his oats. The robin and the blue bird will build their little nests, and the dude will scare the horses with his Dolly Varden vest. The housewife now with mop and broom will clean the bouse full well, and the man she swore to cherish will wish he was in well he would like to go fishing for a few days.
