Letter to W. H. Puett.
Carbon, Texas
Dear Sir: New Orleans is one
>f the cities hard on paint; but,
nevertheless, they paint lead-and-
41 a good deal there.
A C Calher painted two houses
last yoar lor P Hinderer: one lead-
and-oil and the other Dovoe. The
first is already in bad condition;
Devoe is perfect.
M Augustin, New Orleans, has
painted his house Devoe three
rimes in eighteen years. This
shows that Devoe is good for six
years there.
In Florida, where lead-and-oil
wears only a year, we have no
complaint of Devoe and we know
of its wearing ten years in sever-
al instances.
“No complaint” is enough to
say tilt we have long-time exper-
iences; they’re coming. Mean-
time, Devoe is t^e paint that takes
least gallons, makes least bill, and
wears longest. So rnuen we’re
sure of.
Yours truly
To FW DEVOE* CO
P. S Carbon Lumber Co sells our
paint.
