i i i 1 QUESTIONNAIRE ANSWERS WHICH WILL SOLVE PERPLEXING PROBLEMS OF THIS RECONSTRUCTION ERA. | Query.—The government has launched an educational campalgn to encourage building in order to put more men to work. Would not a similar movement to show how the old structures can be best and most economically repaired and made g00d as new also help? Answer.—It is learned that such a plan is in effect and ig linked directly, with the Washington propaganda. i Industry must be turned back from, works of war to the ways of peace. Employment must be found, in the meanwhile, for those whose occupa-, tion has been interrupted. There is no, real surplus of labor in the United States. Rather there is a shortage, which would be acute If normal condi-| ditions were already restored, and onoi step towards restoring them will come with resumption of repair work. [ Government restrictions, imposed by_l the necessities of the war program, have for many months past retarded or altogether prevented conltrucdan,' improvement and repairs. These re-, strictions are now off, and there is scarcely a town, a city, a factory, & dwelling or a farm that does not reveal a crying need for prompt attention. ‘Nothing delays such instant action ex- cept the feeling that prices are high for the time being and may be lower. That is not logical. No matter what it costs to repalir, the cost is less than the cost of neglect. No matter what the cost of paint, the wind and the weather will collect a higher bill in deterioration and decay. ~ Query.—What do you think of paint as an investment, aside from the appearance it lends? Does it really PAY to paint a house regularly, say, every three or four years? Answer.—Good paint properly ap- plied when néeded is the main thing in making a house last long and well. A house worth $2,500 can be painted at a cost of about §125. In 60 years that house will need about 13 paintings, the total cost of which will be $1,893. Lett without paint, such a house would fall into complete ruin in 30 years. So taking §0 years as a basis for our fig- ures we find that with paint a home will last that time in good condltion and will cost, plus palnt, $4,875. With- out paint the house would have to be rebuilt at the end of 80 years and would be ready for another complete renovation when the sixtieth year ar- rived. Cost, without paint, $5,000 for a home ready to fall to pleces. Does regular palnting pay? As the old Dutch adage says: “PAINT PAYS FOR ITSELF.” Query.—1 have a quantity of old paint on hand. Can I use it for the first coat In repainting my barn? Answer.—On no account should old paint which has become fat be used for priming either old or new work. 0ld paint in that condition is best used on a fence, brickwork or tinwork. If you value your barn sufficiently to paint it, do it the justice of a good job. U. 8. invents Anti-Rust “Dope.” Incidéntto the war, the government has ‘fated tiié problem that has so long proved baffling to commercial con- cerns of protecting iron and steel from rust. In an attempt to solve this fed- eral speclalists have perfected various forms of protective coatings. In thls connectlon It may be pertinent to ask whether commercial uses will not be found also for the so-called *“dopes” which the government has Invented to be applled to alrplane wings and which are possessed of valuable weather-re- sisting and fireproof qualities, EFFECT OF COLOR UPON THE DURABILITY OF PAINT, Property owners who may have un- der consideration the painting of dwellings and other structures should remember that more durable results are obtained when tinted paints ave used.
