Statesmen and jurists often make a poor out of it, in extending their activities in‘o the field of dry nuTses for swine. The naelanoholly fate of the big swarm of Poland China piglet®, produced at hie farm at Parr, under Thompson’s direct supervision, is a matter of history. A more recent case was where Congressman Charley Landis, gtook dire«. personal charge, when a bunch of seven fine blood * d p'g* were produ ied atjhis f irm near Delphi and the old sow laid on tht-m that night, arid smothered the whole bunoh exoept one, tbe runt of the litter.

Their owner can get them there and no qu stions will be asked, and no charges and no publicity made.

Letter to Mr. Henry Luers,

Reasselaer, Ind. Dear Sir. A gallon saved is $1 or $5 earned Devoe saves 2 or 3 gallons in 10. How muoh is it worth a gallon? A gallon s ived saves the painting too; and both together ooats $4 or $5 —$4 where labor is cheap; $5 where labor is dear. Our agents in Bridgeport, Conn, Hubbell & Wade Co, tells us; “There are a great many workingmen’s houses here They used to paint lead-and-oil and take |ten gallons. We have been selling them ten gallons Devoe lead-and—-zinc, aid have had, in every ig-* stance, two gtllons returned,” The proportion is often higher than that; we have known it five iu ten; but that is exceptional. This is the explanation' Devoe is groand by machinery, and is gronnd fine; lead-and-oil is mixed by band, and isn’t ground at all, ‘ f Yonrs truly, F. . Devoe &Co New York and Chioago P. 8 B F.
