A1000 per cent Investment
That’s the way to look at painting—as an investment, not
an expense. Look around you at the houses going to rack
and ruin. What is doing it? The weather. There is only
one defense against weather and that is paint. But paint,
like weather, is of many kircic. Beware of the fair weather
paint. It does not pioteci, it only deceives. Buy a paint
that has proved its stating power.

Frank Lawson, well known mining

sluicing in progress on a number of
claims. There is nothing new to re
iport. he says, from the Wilbur creek
section of the camp. Several oldtim
ers are still engaged in prospecting
and two are engaged in taking out
dumps, with the outlook good for
some summer work. Mr. Lawson be
lieves there will be considerable new
work undertaken this season as a
result of a very material drop in the
price of provisions. He came out by
way of the O’nes trail and reports
very difficult traveling owing to the
soft condition of the trail.
There will be a practice game of
baseball at the park on Sunday, at
which time the regular lineup for
the opening of the season will be
