It must be cone reseed, however, that in most cases barns and out-bui,!dings are 'a - blot on the•iandscape. This is net as it should be. Paint would right mat= ters, Farm buildings neatly painted are a .source of pride• t•o,• their own- er. And this extra touch adds sub-. •Bally to the value of the larin. All agree that buildings look much. better :when painted. - Tlie queution we want answered is, "Does it pay?" It inay not pay, directly, ' to paint our barns. In fact, its prenervativc effect oe ordingry rough siding wou:',1 scarcely, pay for the paint. - • On new ;smooth siding it would pay.

The ordinary method of. hand a icat i 1 Ion .'is familiarall. AP to In recent years, the spray pumphasbeen reconthnended as a cheap and , efficient mane of of painting outbuildings. ' It proves quite satisfactory. • Thi 1pfay rovers the surface well,..tbough some= what unevenly, and itis necessary to brush it if a good job is desired. This brushing is easily accomplished- by means of and ordinary whiteYash. brush to th'e side of which to .long han- dle has . been attached. The advantages of the pump . as a means' of painting are that the paint is applied.quiek;'y and cheaply. -This practice has its disadvantages in that fully one-half more paint ie nec- essary and one does. ubt get the • fine gloss possible when the paint is . ap- plied by hand and well rubbed in. 'Where. a pump is to be used for ap- olying the paint, the ehean, c•nld water paints are probably preferable on account of waste, For purpose: of whitewashing, the pump is always ahead of the brush. When selecting a colon it is well to remember that red will look well leng•• er than any other shade. A coat of paint every eight or ten'years will knee the buildings looting well. r..
