The clean easif ‛
quick wtqf to paint
Never before has any paint met with such a
sensational reception! The reasons are simple.
Du Pont “Lucite” Wall Paint is so easy to use!
No stirring or thinning!
And “Lucite” doesn’t drip or spatter on fur-
niture, floors or clothes like ordinary paints.
“Lucite” dries in 30 minutes to a rich, flat fin-
ish that is fully washable! No messy clean-up
—soap and water does it!

The correct handling of hogs
on the way to market during hot
weather can mean less shrink
and death loss in transit. Hus-
bandmen suggest that producers
sort animals before loading, bed
the truck with wet sand, load
the truck a little lighter, keep
the vehicle moving, and check
the hogs frequently.

Household hint — when every-
thing else fails, read the instruc-
