A short time ago if a dealer had a barrel of Linseed Oil and a few hundred pounds of White Lead and fifty gallons of mixed paint his stock was complete ; but now to give our customers the lowest market prices, 1 , we must buy our supply of oil and lead in large quantities early in the season. Then the prices are lower and by laying in a supply for the whole season it enables us to sell at Portland prices and still have a small profit. To supply the demand for the many colors in mixed paints it is necessary to carry several hundred gallons, to say nothing of the small household paints : Bath tub.Tinted and Bicycle enamel in cans 20c up Varnish and Oil Stains ... ; 15c " Carriage Paint.. 35c " Floor Paint 50c " Wagon and Implement Taint 50c " Old English Floor Wax Coc " Roof Paint ....I 00 per gallon Alabastine 50 ' package C.
