Letter to H V Fowler
Carbon Texas
Dear Sir: There’s twice as
much horse in one horse—it
may be a mare—as there is in
two or three others together.
So with paints too. If a
painter can do your job with ten
gallons Devoe for $50: it’ll take
12 15 or 20 of other paints; and
the cost of a job is about $5 a
gallon, whatever the paint may
be.
There are paints adulterated
three-quarters—only one quart
of paint in a gallon—he’s got to
baint four gallons of rubbish to
get i.one gallon of paint. The
worst horse you’ve got is- as
good as that paint, and he’ll
go as far.
The less-gallons paint is the
paint, as the most-horse is the
horse.
Yours truly
F W Devoe & Co
