Body and covering ca pacity count in paints, and these depend on the amount and character of pigment used. Weighing will deter mine the amount though not always the character. Sbcrwin & William's Paint weighs fully 30 percent more than many of the paints on the market. This additional weight adds more than 30 per cent to their value. They are so heavy in fact that for ordinary purposes about a pint of oil should be added to each gallon. You get your money's worth and a little more when you buy this brand. We are exclusive agents. Send us your address if you think of painting this year. We have some information which will be of interest to you. I LOCAL NEWS ITEMS The early sown peas are in bloom.
