W mkmM —(From an article Chicago Tribune. June 30. 1920 )
jfclam g-| r l 'HIS epitomizes the situation
A accurately. It also indicates
a mmcm w# ow g rea t is the task of the
Standard Oil Company (Indiana).
But fuel for automotive power
must be supplied. Especially is
this true in the territory served by
the Standard Oil Company (Indi
ana), because in this area —the
bread-basket of the nation —so
large a percentage of the gasoline
is consumed in producing food.
Take away —even cripple—the
automotive power on the Middle
West farms and food prices will
soar because of decreased
l production.
The power-driven tractor is the
only means by which the farmer
can cope successfully with the
shortage of man-power.
By extensive research and intensive
application the Standard Oil Com
pany (Indiana) has increased the
yield of gasoline from crude to the
greatest degree yet known. v ßut it
is not satisfied.
\
The Company is striving to fur
ther increase the yield so that the
use of the tractor, truck, the auto
mobile, and the stationary gas en
gine may be used freely and with
out restriction.
It is apparent that the .Standard
Oil Company (Indiana) by in
creasing the yield has exerted,
also, a downward influence on the
price of gasoline.
