Letter to William Smith ot llurlington, Vt. Pear Fir: Suppose you aro going to paint a house, and ask all tho painters there aro within reach to bid on it vou to furnish materials, they to say what to use, and charge for time and the know how. How many will use the same paint? They gi ner.illy, will compound their own paints. There will be no two alike. And this is tho end of the notion that painters know how to make paint. Thcv know how to put on paint on; nnd that Is their business. rhey ought to know what to buy. How many ot them know what to buy? A blacksmith buys nails, because better shoes and nails than ho can make are made for less than he can make them for by machinery. Wagonmakers buy wheels, because better wheels than they can mako 'are made lor less than they can make them for by machinery Why should a painter makp his own paint, when he can buy better for less?
