Dear Sir: Here’s another problem for those arithmetic and algebra stu dents : If Devoe is worth SI.75 a gallon, and spreads a half further than average paint, ar.d wears twice as long, what is average paint worth a gallon put on, painters’ wages being S3.50 a day and a day’s work a gallon of paint? The answer is minus $1.75 a gallon. That is: you could aiford to paint with average paint if somebody gives it to you and pays half the painters’ wages. Yours truly, F. W. DEVOE & CO. P.
