emptiness, tho inanity of their lives. Take
this question, then, to them through the1 grange,

PACIFIC RUBBER FAINT.
ItfjKirt of thu committee appointed by tho
California Stale Agricultural Socitty, Sept.
I87H, to examine and retairt usm the merits of
mixed paints exhibited.
We selected from tach of thu exhibits viz.,
the
"Av trill Chemical Paint,"
"IiiiKTishablo Paint, " nnd
"Pacific KubUr Paiut,"
n can of their paints, and had same aiplied by
a painter under our iicrsonal supervision, Uin
measuring tlie surface covered, we find thai
the
"Pacific Rubber Paint covered 21,276 sq. in.
"Aver-ill Chemical" " " 17,834 " "
"Iuiierisliable H,4 " "
An equal quantity of each ;nint having been
used, thu alovc result shows that the Pacific
HuliUr Paint coverwl nearly TWENTY I'KK
CKNT. MOItB SUKKACK than the "Averill
Hiemical Paint," nnd nearly FlYTV PKK
CKNT. MOItK SUKKACK tlun tbe "lin-
pernhablu Paint."
In view of the foreging facts, and consider.
ing thu ease of application of th Pacific I lub
ber Paint, nnd its superior covering qualities,
we find it justly untitled to tb awud tl the
First Kre mi i mi.
