HUBBUCK'S PATENT WHITE ZINO PAINT is the most durable and beautiful paint known, does not stain or discolour with the atmosphere of large towns, and by their process, which is patented, is cheaper than White Lead. It ia especially adapted for painting iron, as, by virtue of a semi-galvanic action, it enters the -pores and forms amalgam of the two metals, which protects the Iron from decay or incrustation]' It should be used instead of Red Lead, which is proved to be destructive to Iron exposed to Salt Water. Adulterations.—Some Paint Grinders have been selling Zinc Paint adulterated with Sulphate of Barytes, in proportions varying from ten to thirty per cent.
