Battling the Elements 
F irst the sun and 
then the I'ain with 
their destructive 
forces soon start decay— 
unless you’ve got the 
right paint-protection. 
Not protection for to¬ 
day, tomorrow, or even 
one year—But paint pro¬ 
tection for two years, 
three years, five years, or 
even ten years. 
Lowe Brothers with 35 
years of e.vperience in 
paint makinghave solved 
the important problems 
of paint-pro¬ 
tection. They produce a paint that 
by actual test stands for years if the 
Paint is properly applied on a sur¬ 
face in fit condition to receive it. 
Lowe Brothers “HighStandard” 
Liquid Paint is an economical paint 
—not in the price per gallon —but 
in the cost of covering any stipu¬ 
lated number of square feet, and 
in the length of time it will protect 
that surface. 
That's the test of the 
COST of any paint. 
There is a Lowe Brothers 
Paint for every pur¬ 
pose. Besides "High 
Standard" Liquid Paint 
there is: Interior 
Enamel for wood work 
and walls. 
J’e r ni c o I Enamel 
White for fine finish and 
bath rooms. 
Quick Hard Drying 
Floor Paint. 
Little Blue Flag Var¬ 
nish for fine house finish. 
The "LITTLE BLUE EL AG" 
is Lowe Brothers emblem of 
quality. 
It is on every can of paint as a 
guarantee of a full measure of 
paint-satisfaction.

set a rod at the top and bottom, running 
the curtain by a casing on each and 
drawing it tautly.

HOME

manufacturers of reliable lighting plants

gas generators and private electrical 
plants. You may depend upon the 
reliability of any of these firms. 
SUGGESTIONS FOR THE MONTH

THE GARDEN 
location to get the best bloom color 
effect as well giving consideration to 
the general habits of the plants. 
Petunias are ever beautiful and bloom 
all season. If the flowers are kept 
picked their bloom is almost limit¬ 
less and then they are admirable for 
window boxes, hanging baskets or for 
beds. 
The lawn should he kept in excellent 
growing condition thereby insuring a 
green velvety surface. If it was prop¬ 
erly fertilized in the early spring this 
result can be readily attained by frequent 
use of the mower, the elimination of 
weeds, and ample watering. When it is 
necessary to use the hose do not imagine 
that a mere sprinkling will suffice; apply 
enough water to thoroughly wet the roots 
of the grass. 
Keep a watch on the rose bushes for 
the appearance of rose hugs, caterpil¬ 
lars, and other insects which molest 
the plants. About the only reliable 
remedy for the rose bug and the cater¬ 
pillar is picking them off by hand. 
Other insects appearing they can usually
