This is not a very accurate measure as among Individuals. But it is a fairer meas ure as anions Dations. According to the bureau of for eign and domestic commerce ot the United States department ot com merce, the United States owns ts per cent of all the automobiles and auto trucks in the world. The United States owns one such vehicle for every six of its popula tion. If these motor vehicles were suitably distributed they could pull the entire population of the United States at one loading. How well favored Is our own state may be seen from the fact that we have In Oregon with, less than a million people almost as many autos as has all Germany with a population ot 60,000.0000 No need harping about the cost!

Not only "miles per gallon," but "miles pet motot." For it is the motor that pays when inferior fuel is used. Think then of gasoline in terms of good clean miles. On this basis, your choice will fall naturally upon Union Gasoline. Union Gasoline is a qual ity product And it is non detonating which means that it does not explode so as to strike the pistons a sudden, crashing blow. The power-Impulses from Union Gasoline con tinue throughout the en tire length of the piston's stroke. . This permits the motor to start quickly to accel erate with a swift, vibra tionless pick-up and to attain an even, gliding speed. If a better gasoline were possible it would be made by the Union Oil Compa ny, and sold wherever you see the sign "Union Gaso line." At Union Oil service stations and independent dealers of the first class everywhere. -.1 r.-. n r'i :! v: li:!: ::;v Union Nori'Detonating Gasoline ... .. i Union Oil Company ofCalitbrnia Also Producers of Aristo Motor Oil LtSll Ncwspiper 630 lines 5151-1 Final O.K. for Publication FORMER ROSEBURG EMPLOYEE OF S.
